We want to empower you, and your mobile audience, to see a predefined schedule of videos, and live events, right in the iOS and Android mobile apps.
This is a great way to keep your audience engaged. It will encourage your audience to return to see your latest and greatest scheduled content. It will also help your audience understand what to watch, and when, especially if you have a very large catalog, or members who do not know where to start.
This a great tool for fitness, learning, and entertainment scheduling!
Mobile Apps Calendar Beta
Mobile Apps Calendar is in beta! This means the calendar is an early release feature. You may optionally enable it. Right now, there are limited capabilities. Some capabilities will change. Uscreen plans to improve it further. But we also want to give you early access, as soon as possible, since we know you, and your audience, will benefit from this tool now. Beta also means we want your feedback! So please share your calendar related feedback in a feature request or with your friendly Customer Manager.

Live events automatically display on the calendar, since live events are always associated with a date.
Videos scheduled for future publication do not show on the calendar. You must manually add scheduled videos, after they are published.
You can not add Collections to the calendar
Mobile Users can create personal calendars
Yes! That's right. Your mobile users can create their own calendar schedules. This is a great tool to empower your audience to create their own fitness routines, learning schedules, or entertainment schedules, specific to their own needs.
You users will always see the calendar that you define. And they will also see any videos that they add to their own calendar. Their calendar does not sync with web, TV apps, or if they signin another device. It is only their local device.
