How does the Remindlo Google Calendar integration work?

Once connected, Remindlo syncs appointments from Google Calendar and automatically creates SMS and email reminders. Everything runs in the background, without manual data entry.

Is the integration secure and GDPR compliant?

Yes. Remindlo uses OAuth 2.0 authorisation and stores data securely. Reminders are sent only to customers with the right consent.

Can I choose which calendars are synced?

Yes. After connecting, you can select the work calendars that should sync with Remindlo so reminders only go out for the right appointments.

What happens when a customer cancels?

Remindlo detects cancellations in Google Calendar and removes scheduled reminders so customers do not receive outdated messages.

Auto-sync or the Google Workspace add-on — which should I use?

Use automatic sync if you want it hands-off: connect once and Remindlo sends reminders for every appointment in the background. Use the Google Workspace add-on if you want per-event control and prefer to choose which appointments trigger an SMS from inside Google Calendar. Both use the same reminders engine, so you can start with one and switch later.

Zero manual admin

Remindlo pulls appointments from automatically and creates reminder workflows for you. No manual imports, no data entry, no extra work.
