    This is a feature which we are working on adding to the product, but curently this is not an option.
  • Which Blackberrys are supported?
    Any phone that has the BB OS 4.2+, this makes most phones in the past few years compatiable. Feel free to email us if your not sure your Blackberry will be supported. Some phones have font settings and screen sizes that sometimes make the calendar look off. Just send an email and we will be happy to fix the layout for a specfic phone.

  • How long does it take to have my dept added?
    Most requests for new departments are completed the same day. Some schedules are more complex and require more time to complete.
  • I would like feature X added.
    Please do send us feature requests. We have built most options as request from users.
  • I have made my payment but where is my activation code?
    The Google Checkout system will display your activation code on the screen when your payment is processed. Google does not email you the code, it is on the web page after you make the payment. You should be able to return to the payment confirmation page from the email sent by Google. If you are having trouble just send us an email.
