Early Access to the Android Appointments App!

Hey folks!

 

I’m very excited to announce that we are recruiting sellers for an early access program for Square Appointments on Android!

appts-android-01.png

As of right now, the Appointments functionality in the app is very limited. You’ll be able to view a calendar of your appointments and personal events one day at a time, view the details of individual appointments, and check out those appointments directly in the app. Anything you'd typically do in Square Point of Sale-- creating items, managing customers, sending invoices-- you’ll also be able to do from this app.

 

We’ll be regularly adding more functionality to the app as we move towards launching it to everyone, but I want to make sure you know that this is an early access version-- if it were end-to-end ready with all the features needed for anyone to use it, we’d just skip ahead to launching it to everyone!

 

Being part of the early access program means you'll be able to provide feedback, and the Appointments product team will listen closely to your input. We may reach out to talk directly about how things are going from time to time. Your thoughts and suggestions will help us shape the path we take from now to launch and beyond!

 

If you’re interested, please reply to this thread and we’ll reach out via email. We’re keeping our audience limited to start, so we may not be able to invite you to try it out immediately. But we’ll be sure to reach out to everyone and let you know when you should expect an invitation to join.

 

Thank you all for your help as we continue to work towards launching Appointments on Android. I personally can’t wait to see this thing go out to everyone-- I know there will be at least 12 pages worth of happy sellers when that happens 🙂

 

Cheers!

Thank you to all who have shown interest in testing the Square Appointments app! Also, thank you to those who have reached out to the beta team to gain access! 

I have good news for everyone! The Square Appointments App is now in Open Beta! This means you can download app from the Google Play Store or by selecting this link on your Android device

 

You can create, manage and take payments for your appointments directly from the Square Appointments app. You can also view upcoming and past appointments as well as customer information.

We are finalizing things and tuning out a few tweaks, but plan to GA very soon! 

Please go ahead and download the app! Feel free to share feedback here or at betafeedback@squareup.com 

Thanks,

I would like to use the early beta for Android.  I need this functionality on my phone, as I signed up for this because Square's appointment page says there IS an app for Android, then sends you to the Play Store, where it directs you to the POS app.

Please consider me for the beta Android appointment app. I just switched from iPhone and it's been such a disappointment not to have my scheduler with me on my phone. I'm a sole proprietor running a massage practice.

 

Thank you!

I would love to look into the Android app. The current web service leaves a lot to be desired, and I hope I can help Square figure out what a salon like mine could use in a native mobile experience.

Please let me know if we can use the early access app. One of our employees is an Android user so I cannot roll this service out until I can get him the app as well. Thanks.

Hi there. I know you may be full for Beta testers. However, I am a designer and have moved all of my clients from other processing apps to Square. Many of them have online stores and take appointments and we have not found great appointment apps that meet all of their needs. Furthermore, I want them all on one system for their ease. Some of them have Androids, as do I, and I really want to see this come to fruition!

Thanks,

Dana Croy

We've already expressed interest in the Android app here, but honestly, we're only requesting access because the mobile web experience (and honestly, the desktop as well) is so lacking in features. We really need to be able to view and navigate our weekly calendar on a phone. There are other smaller issues, but this is the biggest problem we're having right now.

 

Is anyone working on the mobile web experience there? I'd love to not even need a native app, but we just need something that'll work better for us.
