Calendar view

This one is not urgent. Plenty of bug fixes to focus on for now, but the team asked me for this so I am just passing it along.

The guys use phones almost exclusively for internet stuff. I am not sure if any of my team own a computer or laptop. So now I am trying to get them to use the fathombay website to see the calendar and the view is extremely small on their cheap $20 chinese mobile phones. And what we have on there is very packed with features. I am wondering if we can get an app view of the calendar extremely streamlined? They dont need any details like equipment, or pickups, etc. They just like looking ahead and seeing how many reservations we have upcoming.

The Google Calendar view was very easy for them. If we could replicate something like that, I think they’d be very happy. Again, no details needed, just the day, and a name for the reservation, and how many people, and activity.

Something like this -

January 1, 2026

3 Reservations

Bob Smith 2 divers fun dive

Betty Jo 1 diver open water

Billy Jean 3 divers Try Scuba

I dont know if its possible by maybe if we can somehow push/pull the fathombay calendar into Google Calendar that might be perfect for them with minimal effort on your side.

Point is just something extremely streamlined and simple for the guys to see “oh this week we are full…” or “shit we dont have any divers until next week…”

Right now the guys are overwhelmed with the software, which is what I was expecting. They just arent techy people. The WhatsApp messages are perfect for their daily work log. Just trying to find an easier way for them to view our upcoming weeks.

Photo of our previous Google Calendar view the guys were used to using. As you can see its very simple which was perfect for them.
