Shared calendar without edit access

Shared visibility

A shared view for everyday plans

Work, school, appointments, activities, and errands can live in different calendars. ComingUp brings the calendars you connect into a shared view, so the people coordinating with you can find the time, place, and useful details.

  • See the day together.

    Check Today, Week, or Month without piecing together screenshots and messages.
  • Keep source calendars under your control.

    Imported Google and iCloud events stay read-only in ComingUp.
  • Share with the right people.

    Invite people to your ComingUp organization and use permissions to control what they can access.

Fewer repeated questions

Why everyday workarounds get tiring

A copied schedule or screenshot can miss later changes. Group messages are useful for conversation, but finding the latest time, address, or pickup detail can take another round of questions.

  • Avoid shared logins.

    People can use their own ComingUp accounts instead of signing in to someone else’s calendar account.
  • Keep editing deliberate.

    Sharing a view should not require making everyone an editor of the original calendar. Provider sharing settings still apply to the calendars you connect.

Calendar control

What you can see and what you can change

ComingUp separates shared visibility from control of an imported calendar. That distinction leaves room for plans you create directly in ComingUp, too.

  • Google and iCloud calendars.

    Imported events are read-only in ComingUp. Change them with the original provider; ComingUp does not grant other members permission to edit or manage that source calendar.
  • Events created in ComingUp.

    Create and update events in ComingUp where your permissions allow.
  • Useful event details.

    Keep supported addresses, contacts, and context alongside events. Adding someone as a contact does not give them an account or access.

Sharing boundaries

Membership controls access

People invited to the same ComingUp organization can share calendars and household information according to their permissions and plan limits. Separate ComingUp organizations remain separate.

You decide whom to invite. Living at the same address does not automatically grant access, and living at different addresses does not require separate organizations. A relative, co-parent, or caregiver needs the appropriate membership and permissions to use shared information through their account.

Choosing a shared view

Is this the setup you need?

This is a good fit when you want people to see upcoming plans across connected calendars without giving them control of the original calendars. You do not need children, multiple caregivers, or an unusually complicated schedule.

If you want everyone to edit the same Google or iCloud calendar, use that provider’s sharing tools. ComingUp does not write changes back to imported calendars or replace meeting-booking and project-management systems.

AI is optional. You can use ComingUp’s calendars and household tools without connecting an AI assistant.
