How do I add or remove available times for people to book my spot?

When you add available dates/times to your spot's calendar in the Parkade app, others can book your spot instantly.

Once you've set availability on the calendar, just sit back, keep your spot empty during those times, and let Parkade work its magic!

We offer a few different ways to manage your calendar, depending on whether you want to quickly adjust your calendar for the next week, or make detailed or long-term adjustments.

To quickly view or modify the next week on your calendar, tap Host → Calendar and you'll see the next seven days. If part or all of a day is available, it will be highlighted green. If it's entirely unavailable, it'll be red.

On the Day-by-day screen you can quickly add or remove all-day availability by tapping on a day.

You can use the Detailed screen to make other choices, such as making your spot available for ranges of dates or for specific time frames on recurring days.

You can use the selectors for start and end dates to add a range of dates that your spot is instantly available.

Or, if your spot will be available all day, every day for the foreseeable future, you can add availability from midnight one day to midnight the following day, tap on “Does not repeat” and select “Daily,” and leave it with no end date. Then your spot will be available at any time, every day in the future. You can see how that’s done here:

Removing or editing blocks of available time you added is easy.

To remove a block of time, go to the Host tab and select Calendar.

On the Day-by-day view, you can tap an available day to turn it red and remove availability. 

If you want to make more specific changes (like making the spot unavailable only during a short time frame, or only for a few days while leaving availability on other days), select the Detailed view.

Then, tap "Edit availability" and "Remove dates." Select the start and end times you want to make your spot unavailable for and tap save.

Alternatively, you can just tap on a block of available dates and tap "Delete availability" to remove the whole block of time.

You can also change the start and end date/time available dates. For example, if you have a block of availability that starts October 29, but you want it to instead start on November 4, tap on the block, change the start date and tap Save. 

Be aware this won't cancel any existing reservations during the times you removed. It will just prevent new reservations from being made.

When viewing the calendar, you’ll see just one spot's calendar at a time.

If you have reservations for multiple spots, it's easy to switch between spots! The spot number right below the two calendar view options is tappable, and tapping it will open a list of all your parking spots that you can switch to.
