Features & Announcements
Articles announcing new Gymdesk features and company news.
Planning your weekly schedule shouldn't mean clicking into every session to check what skills you're teaching, or opening separate tabs just to look up technique names.
When we rolled out the new scheduling experience, the goal was to make your calendar feel closer to the way you already use tools like Google Calendar.
Since then, we've shipped over 50 improvements to your schedule based on your feedback. Your calendar is now easier to scan at a glance.
Skills Are Back Where You Need Them
Skills now show directly on the schedule again, so you can scan sessions without opening each one.

Helps you scan faster, especially when you’re planning a week, checking what was covered, or coordinating coaching. Less clicking, less tab-switching, more time actually coaching.
Adding skills takes less effort
We also made skill selection easier when you don’t remember exact names. No more hunting through your curriculum list in another window while your next class waits.
Now you can do both:
- Search for a skill when you know what you want
- Browse a cleaned up skills catalogue when you don’t
It’s inside the booking skills widget, with a cleaned-up view that makes browsing simple. Plan your week in half the time.

A smoother schedule across the board
Beyond skills, we’ve continued improving the scheduling experience so it behaves more consistently across views, integrations, and booking flows.
Display updates
- Header dates stay in sync when you toggle between weeks
- Participant names render more cleanly and are easier to read
Integration updates
- The WordPress embedded schedule “Book” button works reliably
- WOD flows behave consistently, including cancelling and adding
Speed and reliability updates
- Changes apply immediately without a refresh
- Booking flows are more reliable, including fixes for edge cases that blocked bookings
Thanks for sharing your notes on what makes scheduling faster for your gym. Keep them coming.
