Widgets & Notifications
Keep your schedule visible at a glance with Home Screen widgets and smart pre-event alerts.
Home Screen Widgets
LucidPal provides three widget sizes. Add them via the iOS widget picker (long-press the Home Screen → + → LucidPal).
| Size | What it shows |
|---|---|
| Small | Your next upcoming calendar event (title + time) |
| Medium | Next event and the next available free slots today |
| Large | A full day-list view of today's remaining events |
Use the Medium widget on your most-visited Home Screen page for an instant overview of what's next and when you're free.
Tapping any widget opens LucidPal directly.
Pre-Event Smart Notifications
LucidPal sends a local notification 10 minutes before each upcoming calendar event.
Tapping the notification opens a preparation chat for that event — a new session pre-loaded with the event details so you can ask follow-up questions, get a briefing, or draft talking points.
Requirements
- Grant LucidPal notification permission (Settings → Notifications → LucidPal).
- LucidPal must have calendar access to read upcoming events.
Notifications are scheduled locally on your device. They do not require an internet connection and LucidPal never sends your calendar data to a remote server.
Adjusting or disabling
Toggle pre-event reminders on or off in LucidPal → Settings → Notifications. You can also disable them in iOS Settings → Notifications → LucidPal, or revoke calendar access in iOS Settings → Privacy & Security → Calendars.
