Your preferences

Choose how the calendar colors your appointments, plus your own display settings in the Lilo app, like dark mode and how tall each hour is.

Preferences are your own settings. They change how Lilo looks for you, and for nobody else.

Choose your calendar colors

  1. Open your account menu at the top right and choose Preferences. You can also go to Settings → Preferences.
  2. Under Calendar color, select Status or Service. The sample appointments below it show how each one looks.
  3. Select Save.
  • Status colors each appointment by where it is in the visit, like booked, checked in or completed.
  • Service uses the color of the appointment's first service. You choose a service's color in Services.

Everyone starts with Service until they change it. You can also switch between the two at the top of your calendar. That switch saves as soon as you select it.

Change your preferences in the Lilo app

  1. Tap More, then tap the icon next to your name.
  2. On the Profile tab, change any of these:
    • Appearance: System follows your phone's light or dark mode. Light and Dark always use that one.
    • Chip color, under Calendar: Service or Status. It's the same setting as Calendar color on the web.
    • Time density: how tall each hour is in Day and Week view. Choose Compact, Comfortable or Spacious. Taller hours give appointments more room.
    • Cancelled appointments: Keep on calendar shows them crossed out and narrow, so you can still tap the time to book it. Hide takes them off your calendar.

Each one changes as soon as you tap it.

How it works

  • Lilo saves Calendar color to your account, so it follows you to the Lilo app and any computer you sign in on.
  • Appearance, Time density and Cancelled appointments are saved on that phone only. On a new phone, they start at System, Spacious and Keep on calendar.
  • In a narrow browser window, the calendar has no color switch. Use Preferences instead.
  • Notifications aren't set here. See Notifications for you and your team.
  • The Face ID lock is on the same Profile tab in the app. See Lilo on your phone.

Common questions

Why do a coworker's calendar colors look different from mine?

Each person picks their own. Changing yours doesn't change anyone else's calendar.

I chose Service. Why are some appointments still in status colors?

On the web, two kinds of appointments don't follow it. Cancelled ones keep their dashed red outline, and ones with processing time keep their status colors.

Can I use dark mode?

In the Lilo app, yes. Choose Dark under Appearance on your profile. Lilo on the web doesn't have a dark mode.
