Impossible to ignore
When a meeting starts, ZapCal covers every connected display with a bold, full-screen alert. No more missed standups hiding behind a stack of browser tabs.
Each alert shows the event title, time, calendar, location, and a join button for video calls — everything you need at a glance.
A gentle heads-up
Before the full alert hits, a mini banner slides in with a live countdown timer. Know exactly when you need to wrap up and switch contexts.
Banners auto-dismiss after a configurable duration, or stick around until the event starts — your choice.
Join meetings instantly
ZapCal scans your event details and automatically detects video conference links. One click and you’re in — right from the alert.
Make it yours
Choose from beautiful built-in themes or fully customize your alert appearance — colors, fonts, backgrounds, blur effects, and more. Assign different themes to different calendars so you instantly know what type of event is coming.
You’re in charge
Not ready? Snooze an alert with configurable durations — 1 minute, 5 minutes, 15 minutes, or whatever you set. It comes back when you’re ready.
Need focus time? Pause all alerts from the menu bar with a single click. Resume whenever you’re done.
Everything at a glance
ZapCal lives quietly in your menu bar. Click the icon to see all upcoming events — calendar events, Apple Reminders, and custom ZapCal reminders — sorted by time and styled by calendar.
Right-click for quick access to pause alerts, open settings, or quit. No dock icon, no clutter.
