What is a Personal Area?

Personal areas let you block off hours when you are unavailable or add tasks and reminders to your calendar. You can plan your day independently from your appointments. They appear in mint green, showing the title and duration on the card.

When to Use?

Lunch Break

Block off hours when you don’t want to accept appointments.

Supervision / Training

Mark regular supervision or training sessions on your calendar.

Personal Tasks

Add personal reminders like "Prepare case formulation" or "Write report."

Personal Time

Block vacation, leave, or any periods closed to appointments.

Tip
Personal areas can be used not only to block time but also to plan your day.
