Manage time off and working hours

Last updated November 2026 · v1.0

Your working hours decide which times clients can book. Time off blocks your calendar. If you run a team, you can ask them to request time off first.

The short version
  1. Set your hours and time off in Settings, under Scheduling.
  2. Owners approve team requests under Team, then Time off.

On your phone

Your working hours

  1. Tap the More tab, then Settings, then Scheduling.
  2. Under Work Hours, tap Edit Schedule, set your days and times, and save.

Your time off

  1. In the same Scheduling section, tap + Request time off.
    • Owners, and teams that don't need approval, see + Add blocked date instead.
  2. Choose Full day or Specific hours, pick the date, and tap Add to list.
  3. Tap Submit request (or Save when no approval is needed).

Approving your team (owners)

  1. Tap the More tab, then Team, then the time off row.
  2. Tap Approve or Decline on each request.
    • A decline needs a reason.

On the web

Your working hours and time off

  1. Click Settings in the left menu, then Scheduling.
  2. Set your Work Hours and click Save Schedule.
  3. Under Request time off (or Add blocked time), pick a date, then click Submit request.
    • Without approval, click Add, then Save Schedule.

Approving your team (owners)

  1. Click Team in the left menu, then Time off.
  2. Click Approve or Decline on each request.

Team policy (owners)

In the Scheduling settings (under Team policy on your phone):

  • Require approval for time off - team members ask first, and you decide. Everyone who can approve gets a push and an email for each request.
  • Don't allow overlapping time off - no two team members can be off on the same whole day. Owners can still add or approve overlapping days.

Good to know

  • Approving blocks their calendar. It does not move their bookings. Chester warns you how many visits are still assigned to them, so you can reassign them.
  • See who's off on the team calendar: More tab, then Team calendar on your phone.
  • Owners are never asked to approve their own time off.
