Create or edit an event in the mobile app

You can create or edit meetings in the mobile app with the mobile event composer. To open it, select the calendar icon located on the Pass tab, then select the + floating action button in the schedule view. You can also create meetings from the map on the Map tab.

The event composer works like other scheduling apps, and adds Robin features to events booked in Robin-powered spaces.

Choose a calendar

When you create an event with the email and calendar of your Robin account, usually your work email address, you can add available meeting rooms in your office.

Switch calendars to create events outside the office. These events sync with your external calendars (Google, iCal and others). Nobody else who uses Robin can see them.

Invite others to your event

To invite others, enter their email address. Robin syncs with your phone's contact list to complete invitee email addresses for you.

Schedule a recurring event

Select more options under the event date & time > Repeat > Select the frequency.

Book a space for the event

Select book a space, or choose from the suggested spaces. Then select your default location to add the campus > building > floor from the dropdown menus.

Automatic conflict checks when you edit

The event composer helps you avoid scheduling conflicts when you edit your events. Robin checks if the room has a conflict and shows its updated status in the space row. Green means the space is still available. Red means a conflict.

Filter search results

To book a space by specific criteria or time, select Filter. Then apply the search criteria you need on the filters page.

Edit an event (mobile)

Before you edit an existing meeting in Robin, check these points:

  • Events created outside Robin show a calendar icon. These are synced events. To edit them, you need Edit Synced Events turned on in the web dashboard.
  • You must be a Robin admin or the event organizer to edit an event. Robin members do not have permission to edit other people's events.

Edit the event

  1. In the mobile app, select the Schedule tab in the bottom toolbar to see a list of your upcoming events. Scroll to find the event you want to edit, or select the date of the event at the top. Note: Robin shows events from today up to 30 days ahead.
  2. The event composer opens. Select edit at the top right.

  3. Make your changes, then select save to update the event. Everyone on the event gets the usual notification.
