Guides can block time directly from the Guide App calendar to prevent trips from being assigned when they are unavailable.
You can block an entire day or specific hours depending on your schedule. Time blocks can be set in 15-minute increments, allowing you to block half days, mornings, afternoons, or just a few hours.
Steps to Block Days or Times in the Guide App
Open the Guide App.
On the Calendar, tap the calendar icon with the gear on the top right.
Tap Add Block Days.
Choose how you want to block your time:
Block a Full Day
Leave All-Day Block turned on.
Select the date you want to block.
Block Part of the Day
Turn All-Day Block off.
Select a Start Time and End Time.
Time can be selected in 15-minute increments.
Example:
If you block 6:00 AM to 12:00 PM, you will not be available for trips during that time, but you may still be assigned to trips starting after 12:00 PM.
This also makes it easy to block half days, such as blocking the morning (AM) or afternoon (PM) depending on when you are unavailable.
Tap Save to apply the block.
How Day or Time Blocks Display
Blocked days and times show as gray on your calendar.
Outfitters will see your blocked dates when assigning trips.
You can remove or adjust blocks anytime in the same menu.
Important: Keeping your day blocks accurate throughout the season prevents scheduling conflicts and ensures a smooth experience for everyone.
What Happens Next
The blocked time will appear on your calendar.
Outfitters will not be able to assign trips during the blocked period.
If only part of the day is blocked, you may still appear available for trips outside the blocked time.
Keeping your day blocks updated ensures clients only see you as an option when you’re truly available, saving everyone scheduling headaches.
