We hope that August was a productive and enjoyable month for all of the Teamup family. This month we’re happy to share a major update to our mobile apps and a new tool for easily embedding Teamup calendars. As we venture into the last quarter of the year, we hope these resources will be helpful for you:

Mobile apps: synced, global calendar dashboard
Teamup’s mobile apps for iOS and Android just got a major update: we added a synced calendar dashboard.
This global calendar dashboard allows you to access your calendar (or calendars) and stay synchronized across all devices, browsers, and app platforms. The synced calendar dashboard is enabled by a free Teamup user account.
You can log in to your existing Teamup user account, or sign up for one from the mobile app. Then you’ll be ready to enjoy an automatically synced calendar dashboard, making it easy to stay updated across all your devices and platforms.

New: Teamup embed wizard
Want to embed your calendar on your blog or website? It’s a great way to share events and coordinate schedules. With the new Teamup embedding tool, it’s easier than ever.
The new embed wizard is a WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) style editor, with a toolbar for making visual adjustments. You can set up the embedded calendar just as you want it, then copy the code and insert it anywhere. The embed wizard will generate both iFrame code and a URL for the calendar you wish to embed.

User story: color-coordinated calendars for a busy schedule
When you’re managing a complex schedule, visual cues and ease-of-use become very important. Something as simple as color-coding can make a big difference. This busy parish with many event types and groups relies on color distinction, folder organization, and an embedded calendar to keep everyone informed on events and schedules.

Blog post: Schedule work with a Teamup calendar
Scheduling work means determining who is going to do what and when they’re going to do it. There are two primary ways to schedule work:
- Scheduling hours of work (for variable or shift schedules).
- Scheduling tasks/jobs that need to be done.
Scheduling work doesn’t have to be a time-consuming hassle. A Teamup calendar can bring you more ability to delegate–without security risk–and reduce the frustration and inefficiency of scheduling with old, out-dated methods.
Learn about using sub-calendars, customized calendar links, access permissions, event signups, and more to create a centralized scheduling tool that works for you:
