Your team's shifts, in Telegram.
For many teams, Telegram is the app they already use. Schedio's bot sends each person their own schedule and a reminder before every shift – and they can check what's next or request time off right in the chat. No new app to learn.

What your team gets in Telegram
- Their schedule – every time you publish or change it, each person gets their own shifts – not the whole roster.
- A reminder before each shift – sent shortly before they are due in, so the schedule does not have to be checked again.
- Self-service replies – they can check their next shift, list the week, or request time off – which lands in your approval queue.
It's per-person and private: people only ever see their own shifts. Managers still run the schedule, swaps and approvals inside Schedio.
Connecting someone
- Open the person's card on the People page and create a connect link – or they connect themselves from Settings → Profile.
- They tap the link, and Telegram opens with the Schedio bot already started.
- Their schedule and reminders start arriving. That's the whole setup.
The bot is hosted by Schedio – there are no tokens to create and nothing to install. Anyone can disconnect from their profile at any time.
Common questions
Does anyone have to install or set up anything?
No. If a person already has Telegram, they tap the connect link and they're done. The bot belongs to Schedio – there are no tokens to create and no admin configuration on your side.
Can staff manage shifts from the chat?
They can see their next shift, list the week and request time off. Anything that changes the schedule – swaps and approvals – still happens in Schedio, where it's permission-checked and logged.
Can someone see a coworker's shifts?
No. The bot only ever sends a person their own schedule. It's a private, one-to-one channel between each employee and Schedio.
