The basics of how a family calendar works and how to get started.
A family calendar is a shared calendar where everyone in the family can see the same activities, times, and lifts in one place. In Famsy, you can type, speak, or take a photo of a note from school, and the AI interprets the content and adds it to the calendar automatically. This saves you from copying down information by hand into multiple different calendars.
Getting started is easy: just create a family account and invite the rest of the family via a link. In Famsy, up to 10 members can join the same account. You can try it free for 14 days, after which it costs 79 SEK/month or 699 SEK/year for the whole family. Once set up, simply add your first activities and your calendar will start filling up.
Anyone involved in the kids' daily routine should be included — for example, both parents, older siblings, and perhaps grandparents who help out with lifts. Famsy offers different roles (admin, adult, and child), allowing child accounts to view the calendar without being able to edit it. That way, everyone gets an overview tailored to their needs.
Yes, children can be invited with their own child account to view the family calendar. Child accounts cannot edit the calendar — they can only see what is planned — making it easy for older kids to keep track of things like sports practice and homework themselves. An admin or adult in the family adds and manages activities.
No, it doesn't matter what kind of phone anyone has. Famsy works regardless of smartphone model because membership is based on the account and a shared link, not the device you use. This makes it effortless even if your family uses a mix of different phone brands.
The main difference is that a standard shared calendar usually requires you to type everything in manually, whereas a family calendar like Famsy can process and interpret information for you. Simply snap a photo or paste an email from school, and the AI extracts dates, times, and what to bring. It saves heaps of time compared to copying information by hand every time.
Yes, if your family speaks different languages, each member can use the app in their preferred language. Famsy is available in Swedish, English, Spanish, French, German, Portuguese, Danish, Norwegian, and Finnish. For instance, a parent can use the app in English while the kids use it in Swedish. The calendar and activities remain identical for everyone.
Besides activities, you can add household chores, daily routines, shopping lists, and lift schedules. In Famsy, these features connect seamlessly with the calendar so you can see who is responsible for what and when. This turns the calendar into a hub for your family's entire day-to-day life, rather than just a schedule of practices and appointments.
The fastest way is to type or voice-record the activity using just a few words, such as "football Tuesday at 5pm". In Famsy, the AI interprets what you say or type and places it on the correct date and time in the calendar. You can also snap a photo of a school note if the details are already on paper.
Yes, family admins and adults can add and modify activities in the shared calendar independently. In Famsy, updates are instantly visible to everyone, eliminating the need to manually double-check who added what. Child accounts can view the calendar but cannot edit it.
The price applies to the entire family, not per person. Following a 14-day free trial, Famsy costs 79 SEK/month or 699 SEK/year for an account with up to 10 members. The price stays the same whether there are two or ten people in your family account.
Yes, you can ask the AI simple questions directly instead of scrolling through the calendar. In Famsy, you can ask something like "What's happening tomorrow?" and get an instant answer based on scheduled events. It's a quick way to get an overview of your day without searching manually.
Yes, a family calendar works just as well for two people as it does for a large family. Famsy supports up to 10 members, but you don't need to fill every spot to benefit from keeping everything in one place. Even for a single parent and one child, it takes the burden off trying to remember everything in your head.
Type it, say it or snap the note from school – Famsy understands it and puts it in the family calendar. One account for up to 10 people, 14 days free.
