📌 Note: By default, your calendar is completely open. However, clients cannot book with you unless you enable online bookings. Learn how to activate online bookings here.
🕒 Two Ways to Manage Your Availability
In Noona HQ, you can control when clients can book appointments with you using:
Opening hours — Set your general availability.
Blocked times — Customize your schedule for breaks, holidays, and more.
Together, these tools give you full flexibility to manage your calendar.

1. Adjust Opening Hours
Clients can only book when there’s an available slot in your calendar. These slots appear in white. The gray areas are outside of your booking hours and are unavailable to clients.
✨ How to Edit Your Opening Hours
Go to Settings → Calendar under the Schedule section.
Adjust your default opening and closing times.
Customize your calendar view by changing:
Time division (e.g., 15, 30, 60 minutes)
Zoom level for visibility.
✅ Once saved, your changes will reflect immediately in your calendar view.
2. Create Blocked Times
Use blocked times to manage personal breaks, holidays, recurring days off, or different working hours across staff members.
🔧 How to Create a Blocked Time
Select the time slot where you want the blocked time to begin.
Click “Create blocked time.”
In the pop-up, customize:
Start and end time
Description
Repetition (daily, weekly, etc.)
Apply the block to multiple staff members if needed
🗓 Common Use Cases
Scenario | What to Do |
Not working weekends | Create a repeating blocked time for Saturday and Sunday |
Taking a vacation | Set a blocked time that repeats daily until your return |
Staff meeting | Create a blocked time for selected staff members |
Lunch break every day | Set a repeating blocked time for your lunch hour |
💡 Tip: Want to block a full day? Just click All-day — no need to set start and end times!
🙌 Why Blocked Times Are Powerful
Blocked times help you stay in control without restricting flexibility. You can still book over blocked times if needed — for example, to fit in a VIP or family member.
