Getting Started Guide for All Users

Introduction

Teamup is a calendar for groups. It makes sharing information with your group easy; you can collaborate on scheduling, keep an eye on the big picture for your project or team, and still work with all the necessary details.

This short introduction will guide you through the first steps so you can start using Teamup right away. If you are a calendar administrator, see this guide.

Accessing Your Calendar

Your calendar administrator will send you a calendar invitation (via email) or provide you with a calendar link.

To access the calendar:

  • If you have an emailed calendar invitation, follow the instructions to activate your account. Then you can log in and open the calendar from your dashboard.
  • If you have a shareable calendar link, paste or type the link into your browser’s URL bar to open the calendar. It’s a good idea to save the link to your bookmarks, so you can get to it quickly, anytime.

Access the calendar in the Teamup app

Download the Teamup app for iOS or Android.

Then sign up or log in with your user account email and password. The calendar will be on the dashboard. Tap to open it in the app. 

Alternately, you can continue without an account. If you have a shareable calendar link, you can copy and paste it in to access the calendar without creating an account or logging in.

Working with Filters

In the web browser, click the arrow by the word Filter at the bottom left of your sidebar. There are three options for filtering: keyword, sub-calendar, and customized event field(s).

Filter by sub-calendar

Choose a sub-calendar from the drop-down list to filter by a sub-calendar. Note that this won’t change the show/hide selection you have currently set for your sub-calendars.
