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,

Thanks for reporting this @PreciseA, I'm sorry for the disruption this is causing. If you haven't already, can you delete and reinstall the app as suggested by @Hillaryrose1980?

 

If this continues after you reinstall the app please send an email to the beta team directly at betafeedback@squareup.com so they can investigate further.

I would love to be considered for the early access app! I recently purchased an android tablet without realizing I couldn't check out clients through the web app. Please let me know if I'm eligible. I would gladly provide feedback on the app.

I'm interested in using the early access version for Android. I just added the appointments to my website and cannot convert the appointment into a charge without doing double work in POS.

Hello! I would be interested in being a part of the beta. I'm very fond of 1) the software itself and 2) doing my duty as a beta tester to identify and catalog as many bugs (No matter how obscure) as possible. I'd love to generate some mutual benefit. LOVE YA, STRANGER! : )
