TymFinder Help

Please remember that TymFinder is still a prototype release. We believe it works, but there's always the possibility you'll run across a bug! If you do find a bug (or have a new-feature idea), please let us know via the Contact Us page.

What is TymFinder?

TymFinder is a collaboration tool that helps a group of people compare their available time-slots to find a time to meet.

How do I use it?

The meeting organizer fills out the form at the TymFinder home page. That creates a unique web page address (URL) for a "Find a Time" schedule sheet that the organizer copies and pastes into an email that goes out to all invitees.

Each invitee clicks the link to go to the "Find a Time" schedule sheet and then clicks boxes to show when they are available. When all attendees have marked-up the form, the organizer can easily see what times work for everyone (or at least which times work for almost everyone!) This can significantly shorten the amount of email and phone iterations to find a time. The larger the group, the more this helps!

Hint: if you set up a free account and then log-in before creating a Tymfinder schedule, you can opt to have Tymfinder notify you the first time each invitee marks-up the schedule, so you'll always now how many invitees have responded.

If I use TymFinder, what will my invitees see?

When invitees click on the link to the TymFinder schedule for you meeting, they will first be asked which attendee they are, and then they are shown a simple schedule sheet. They click boxes to show which times they are available.

How many people can I invite?

TymFinder supports up to 50 invitees.

What do I do if I receive a link to a TymFinder Find a Time schedule sheet?

If you receive an email with a link to a TymFinder Schedule Sheet, here's what to do:

• Click the link in the email to go to the Schedule Sheet for that meeting. You'll be asked which attendee's schedule you'd like to mark-up. Select one and press the "Enter" button.


• You'll be shown a schedule to mark-up. Click the boxes showing when you are available to meet, and then click the "Save Schedule" button to record your available times.


• Optionally, you can click on the radio button that lets you view all the attendees'schedules
