What’s new · Week 1 · Thu Oct 22 to Fri Oct 30, 2026

Your first week on the new ChairWatch.

Smarter blocked time, holidays in two taps, pay you can follow and easier booking for your clients.

26 new things this week

Block time with the Appointment option: a client's name and service saved as a hold on the calendar

For your business

Save the chair for your regulars.

Block time can now hold a client's spot. No texts, no charge, just their place.

Blocked time set to repeat every week until a chosen date, then already blocked on the calendar the following week

For your business

Set it once. It repeats.

Lunch, school run, standing break: blocked time now repeats weekly, every two weeks or monthly.

Special days: Thanksgiving marked Closed, and the day after given special hours at the Late price

For your business

Holidays in two taps.

Close for the day or set special hours, and pick which prices apply.

A client on a phone adds Nail Art to a Pink Almond Gel booking from the "Add another service" panel, without starting over

For your clients

Add a service without starting over.

Clients can add another service mid-booking and see exactly what is due.

Also new

The ChairWatch Providers calendar on a phone: a full day of bookings, scrolled, then one visit opened

Your calendar, made for your thumb.

Tap to open, long press to move, drag a booking to another day.

A team member's Time off tab listing their upcoming days away, with the reason for each

Time off, all in one place.

Each team member's days away, in their own tab.

An appointment with the client's inspo picture and their note shown at the top, above the service

Their inspo, right on the booking.

The picture your client sent now sits at the top of the appointment.
