New! Add virtual members to your calendars!
Thank you for using TimeTree! You can now add account-free “virtual members” such as children, pets, cars, etc. to your shared calendars.
Advantages of Virtual Members
1. Can be added as event participants
This clarifies the members involved in the appointment, eliminates the need for verbal confirmation each time, and greatly reduces the risk of double booking.
Specific cases
A child's appointment, but it is not clear if you are participating
Parents appointment, but it is not clear if the children are participating

2. Birthday event is automatically added to the calendar
Virtual members can register their birthdays in the same way as regular calendar members.
