Quick answer
How do Appointly's WhatsApp appointment reminders work?
When a client books online through your Appointly link, an instant WhatsApp confirmation is sent with a manage link. About 24 hours before the appointment, an automatic WhatsApp reminder is sent to the same number. The client can reschedule or cancel themselves from the manage link until 2 hours before — and the slot frees up for someone else online. You do not type any of these messages.
No-shows are not bad luck — they're missing reminders
You message every client manually the night before. Half the time you forget, half the time it's too late.
Appointly sends a 24-hour WhatsApp reminder for every booking automatically. You don't touch anything.
Clients say 'I'll come' but don't reply — and don't show up.
The reminder includes a manage link so a silent client can quietly reschedule or cancel instead of ghosting.
Phone-call cancellations always arrive while you're with a client.
Self-service rescheduling means the cancellation arrives as a freed slot, not as a phone call you have to take mid-cut.
