Set up a shared family calendar everyone can see
Clubs, appointments and shifts live in five different heads. Lay out the family week, spot clashes and share one calendar everyone can see.
The prompt · ChatGPT
Help me organise our family calendar. Who's in the family: [names and ages] Regular weekly things: [e.g. swimming Tue 5pm, my shifts, football Sat 9am] One-offs coming up: [appointments, parties, trips, with dates] Who drives or does pick-ups: [names] Shared jobs: [e.g. food shop, bins, homework] Calendar we'll use: [e.g. Google Calendar, or tell me] Before you start, ask me up to 3 short questions if anything important is missing. Wait for my answers. Then: 1. A week grid with everyone's commitments, one row per person. 2. A clash list, with a suggested fix for each (swap, share a lift, move). 3. Every regular event as a ready-to-enter list: title, day, time, repeats, who's going, who drives. 4. A 10-minute Sunday check-in agenda for the family. 5. Simple naming rules so everyone knows whose event is whose. Only use what I've typed. UK English. Stay in this ChatGPT chat. Do not turn on apps or connectors, and do not use memory from another chat.
