How Calyn helps

How does Calyn help with my mental load?

By making it easy to get what you’re holding in your head into your phone. You don’t have to remember it: snap the flyer, share the group chat or say the dentist call, and it’s in your calendar.

What’s the idea behind Calyn?

One step, not a conversation. Calyn understands your particulars, like who your partner is and what stays private at work, so it can get it into your calendar in one go.

It learns when you correct it (coming soon). You choose what it keeps: save a learning or forget it.

Can it really capture from all these places?

Yes: photos, screenshots, text, links and voice notes, shared from any app. Calyn never reads your inbox; you share the email you want.

How do I…

How do I get a school flyer or newsletter into my calendar?

  1. Take a photo of the flyer, or a screenshot of the newsletter.
  2. Add it in Calyn.
  3. Want only one event? Add “just the book fair”.

How do I add plans from a group chat or an email?

  1. Screenshot the chat, or select the email’s text.
  2. Tap Share, then Calyn.

How do I add something I just remembered?

Type or say it: “Dentist Tuesday at 3, remind me the night before.”

How do I see if a new event clashes?

After each add, Calyn checks two hours either side of the new event. A clash shows on the event’s card.

How do I find a free time?

On iPhone, ask Calyn’s search: “an hour for coffee next week”.

How do I keep my partner in the loop?

  1. In Settings, add your Partner’s Email.
  2. When you add, turn on the partner switch. They get an invite.

Invites work with Google Calendar and Outlook, not Apple Calendar.

How do I keep work events private?

  1. In Settings, add your Work Email.
  2. Turn on “Generic title on work invites”.

Colleagues see you’re busy, not why. Your own calendar keeps the real title.

About your calendar

Why does Calyn ask to see and edit my Google Calendar?

That’s Google’s permission for adding events. Calyn uses it to:

  • add the events you approve
  • check new events for clashes
  • change or delete events it added, when you ask

What does Calyn read in my calendar, and what goes to its AI?

Only the events two hours either side of a new one: their titles, times and places go to its AI (OpenAI) for the clash check. No notes or guests. OpenAI doesn’t train on it. Privacy policy

Can Calyn touch my other events, Gmail, contacts or Drive?

No. Calyn only changes events it added, and can’t see your Gmail, contacts or Drive.

What do you keep, and how do I disconnect or delete it?

Your photos, text and events aren’t kept. We keep an anonymous phone ID and usage counts.

  • Disconnect: Settings → your calendar → Disconnect.
  • Delete your data: here’s how.

The basics

Which phones and calendars does it work with?

  • iPhone: Apple Calendar, Google Calendar, Outlook
  • Android: Google Calendar, Outlook

Is it free?

Yes. No account needed.
