SMS Text Reminders for Google Calendar™ is the easiest way to send automatic appointment reminders for your Google Calendar™ events by text - right from your calendar. 

This Google Calendar™ reminder add-on schedules SMS appointment reminder texts so clients show up on time and no booking slips through the cracks. 

Perfect for salons, barbers, clinics, dental practices, tutors, coaches, contractors, and any appointment-based business where it matters if people show up on time.

Open an event, enter a phone number, and your text reminder is scheduled. 

No spreadsheets, no copy-pasting numbers, no separate texting app - just reliable automated reminders that send at their scheduled time.

✦ HOW IT WORKS
Click any calendar event to open the sidebar, enter the recipient's phone number, and pick when the text should go out. Your SMS reminder sends automatically at the scheduled time.

✦ KEY FEATURES
— Scheduled reminders: Set a text appointment reminder to send hours or days before any appointment, sent automatically.

— Multiple reminders per event: Send a 24-hour and a 1-hour reminder (and more) for the same appointment.

— Message templates: Save your wording once and reuse it, with variables like {name}, {date}, {time}, and {location} filled in automatically.

— Appointment confirmations: Recipients confirm or cancel from their own appointment page link, and you'll see their response.

— Moved-event syncing: Reschedule an event and the add-on flags it so your reminders can shift to match the new time.

— Calendar indicators: See at a glance which events have reminders, with an optional emoji or color on the event.

✦ PERFECT FOR
— Salons, spas & barbershops: Cut last-minute no-shows with a friendly reminder the day before - text reminders for hair salons, nail salons, and barbers.

— Clinics & private practices: Keep your schedule full and your chairs busy — appointment reminders for dental practices, therapists, and physiotherapists.

— Tutors, coaches & trainers: Make sure clients remember their sessions and personal training appointments.

— Contractors & home services: Confirm appointments before you drive out.

— Anyone with a busy calendar: Accountants, lawyers, real estate agents, and auto shops too - if a missed appointment costs you time or money, reminders pay for themselves.
