Depending on which appointment notifications you want to send and what notification methods your customers' prefer, up to three kinds of notifications via text message and/or email:
-
Appointment Details: Provides the details of an appointment when it is booked.
-
Confirmation Requests: Asks clients to confirm whether they will be at the appointment.
-
Appointment Reminders: Reminds customers of an upcoming appointment and can be sent as a text and/or email.
Typically, a notification fails to reach the recipient when the contact information is invalid, incorrect, or if it has been marked as spam.

Has this feature been removed? I cannot locate the feature in order to see if a customer received notification or not.
Hi Jayme,
This feature was not removed. What device are you currently using? The steps are a little different for mobile devices.
Thanks,
Jamie
Hi, Jamie, I figured it out. You cannot see the history when you click into the customer profile directly from the Calendar booking. I found the feature when I went to Customers > Select Customer > Select Appointments tab > then the 3 dots with the history shows. Also, I use a laptop.
Hi Jayme,
Good to hear you were able to find this feature. If you have any other questions, please feel free to reach out. I'm going to speak to our product team and see if we can have this option available when you click into a profile through the Calendar.
Thanks, Jamie
