Cadence shows the calendars already on your device, including attendees and their responses, and that needs full access. It reads them on your device only. See the privacy policy for exactly what happens to the data.

Google, Microsoft 365 or Outlook, and iCloud. Link them in Settings → Accounts, then check that each calendar account is mapped to the provider that answers for it. For an account Cadence cannot answer, the Mac offers Open in Calendar and the iPhone shows the system event sheet.

Sign in at account.apple.com, open Sign-In and Security → App-Specific Passwords, create one named Cadence and paste it into Settings → Accounts. You can revoke it there at any time.

Some workplaces only allow apps an administrator has approved. Cadence shows the exact message to forward to your IT team; once they approve it, sign in again.

Cadence marks a reply as sent at once and waits for your calendar to confirm it. If no confirmation arrives within ten minutes, the row offers Retry. Check that you are online and that the account is still linked in Settings → Accounts.

Yes. In this version a reply answers the whole series.

Yes. Every reply waits ten seconds before it is sent, with Undo next to it, so even your first answer to an invitation can be taken back. Quitting Cadence or leaving the app sends waiting replies at once. Replies made by agents and Siri are sent straight away.

Cadence looks for Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex and FaceTime links in the event’s link, location and notes. If the organiser put the link somewhere else, such as an attachment, there is nothing to join from.

Tap the panel hotkey (⌃⌥F unless you changed it) twice, double-click the menu bar countdown, press Return in the panel, or press J in the window. Double-clicking a meeting in the agenda, day or week view joins it too.

Allow notifications for Cadence in System Settings or Settings on iPhone, then pick the reminder lead and brief hour in Settings → Notifications.

Press ⌘/ on the Mac, or open Help → Keyboard Shortcuts. Help → Show Welcome Tour replays the tour.

In the five minutes before a meeting with people or a link, the menu bar panel leads with Join, who is coming and the agenda from the notes. To have it open by itself two minutes before, without taking focus, turn it on in Settings → Notifications.

Yes. Cadence is free on Mac and iPhone, with no account and no subscription. Replies, join, conflicts, widgets and agents are all included.

Press ⌘N or + in the toolbar on the Mac, or + on the iPhone’s Today tab, and type something like “Lunch with Ana tomorrow 1pm”. Cadence previews the date, time, link and calendar as you type and adds the event with Return. It understands repeats daily, on weekdays or weekly, and offers Undo for ten seconds. Pick the calendar it adds to in Settings → Calendars.

Drag on empty time in the day or week view to select slots (hold ⌘ to add more), choose a time zone and press Copy. Suggest (⌘⇧A) picks the next free half hours for you. On iPhone, use Share free time in the Calendar tab.

Yes. Settings → Automations can run a Shortcut when a meeting starts and when it ends; both are off by default. The Cadence Focus filter switches the active calendar set during a Focus, can hide declined events, and restores the previous set when the Focus ends.

Open Settings → Agents on the Mac and copy the claude mcp add command, or the JSON snippet for other clients. The server only listens on your Mac. Agents can read your schedule; to let them reply, turn on replies from agents on the same page.

Settings → Agents shows two ways to install it. Run cadence status to check it can reach the app.

Yes, through your iCloud private database when you are signed in to iCloud: calendar sets, zones, hidden calendars, working hours and the rest. Tokens and passwords stay on each device, so link accounts on each one.
