Fill diary space with Smart Gaps
What is Smart Gaps?
Smart Gaps highlights useful free periods between busy diary entries and suggests pupils who could fit. It helps you consider pupils who have waited longer or have fewer lessons booked, without automatically promising them a place.
Use a Smart Gap
- Open instructor Calendar and find a Smart Gap card. The current diary shows these for qualifying gaps of at least 45 minutes between busy events.
- Tap the card to open Best pupils for this gap.
- Read the reasons beside suggested pupils, such as time since the last lesson or lessons booked in the next 14 days.
- Choose a pupil and review the quick-book preview, or use the manual booking option.
- Check the start, duration, amount and paid status before confirming.
- Wait for a successful booking and check the refreshed diary.
For example, a 90-minute gap could fit a pupil who has no upcoming lesson. Quick booking uses your saved normal lesson duration, capped by the gap; it does not always fill the entire free period.
Important things to know
Suggestions use records held on the device. Only active, verified pupils without a conflicting lesson are considered. The ranking is not a prediction of pupil willingness, travel time or driving ability. Suggested prices come from previous lesson information and need your review. Booking requires internet and a fresh conflict check.
Troubleshooting
No candidates may mean pupils are unverified, inactive or already busy. Refresh before relying on suggestions. If booking fails, check the diary before submitting again.
