# GroupCal

> Shared calendars for groups, teams and public audiences

GroupCal is a shared calendar platform from 24me for iPhone, Android and the web. An owner creates separate calendars for different groups or topics, members join through a link or a phone-number invite, and everyone gets push notifications when events change. Paid plans, which only the calendar's owner needs, add permission controls, extra admins, public calendar channels and website embeds for several calendars.

## Ways to pay less

- **Save 33% with yearly billing** (Annual discount): The pricing page marks yearly billing as a 33% saving: Pro is $10 per month billed annually against $15 billed monthly, Team $50 against $75 and Organization $150 against $225. Source: https://www.groupcal.app/pricing/

## Key features

- **Calendars joined by link:** Create separate calendars for different groups, topics or resources, each with its own color and photo. Members join from a shared link or an invite sent to their phone number, without an email address.
- **Real-time updates and RSVP:** Members get push notifications when they are added to a calendar and when events are added or changed. Each event shows who accepted or declined.
- **Roles and permissions:** Calendars have Owner, Admin and Member roles. Paid plans let the owner choose who can add events or members, and from Team hide event details or limit members to editing their own events.
- **Personal calendars alongside:** Events from Apple Calendar, Google Calendar and Outlook appear next to GroupCal calendars in one view. From Pro, events from connected Google, Outlook and iCloud accounts can be shared with a group.
- **Public channels and embeds:** A public calendar can be embedded in a website, with a WordPress plugin and a Wix widget. On Organization, a calendar channel is listed in GroupCal's search and takes unlimited followers.
- **Linked calendars:** On the Organization plan, calendars can be linked so events sync across them, which lets a master calendar reflect several related schedules.

## Good for

- Clubs, communities and schools that publish a schedule to many people
- Small teams sharing shifts, bookings or meeting-room calendars
- Families and friends on a mix of iPhone and Android phones
- Groups where only the organizer should pay: members use the app free

## Worth knowing

- A plan covers the calendars its buyer owns, so prices are per calendar owner, not per member; members and admins of those calendars pay nothing.
- The free plan allows 1 admin and has no permission controls. More admins start at Team ($50 per month, billed annually).
- The REST API, webhooks and white-labeled apps are limited to Enterprise, which has custom pricing.
- Accounts are tied to a phone number: the guide says to sign in with the same number on every device.
