The Start of the Glowday GLOWUP!
Last month I shared a survey with you, asking you to ‘help us build the best’.
Last week, the Glowday development team grew, and this month, it will grow some more.
What that means for you, is that we’re actively building the improvements you told us you wanted - starting with the practical, daily fixes you’ve been asking for.
Here’s what’s coming…
Diary improvements that match how you actually work
There are three changes coming to the diary in this piece of work:
The ability to set your appointment lengths. Set your appointments to 5, 10, 15 or 20 minute intervals.
Buffer times between appointments. Time to set up or clear down - you will be able to add a buffer before and after treatments. Your booking page will automatically stop patients booking into your changeover or prep time.
Split availability windows in a single day. Want to work 9am to 12pm, do the school run, then clinic again from 4pm to 8pm? Set both windows. Patients will only see slots when you're genuinely available.
Self-edit your treatment menu…finally
Right now, if you want to add a treatment, rename one or tweak a description, you needed to ask me.
It's frankly, a daft use of everyone's time!
So that’s the first fix - you being able to add treatments and edit treatment names and descriptions.
Review improvements
There are four planned improvements to reviews:
Google review integration. Connect your Google Business Profile to your Glowday booking page, and your recent Google reviews will display on your booking page alongside your Glowday reviews.
Reply publicly to reviews. Every review gets a Reply action. Up to 500 characters, posted directly beneath the review, labelled as your response. Edit or delete any time.
Notification when you get a new review. No more having to check your booking page to see if you’ve had a review. You’ll be notified by email, with the review and the option to reply.
Resend a review request. If a patient hasn't responded after the automated reminder has been sent, you can nudge them with a follow-up email. Capped at two resends per booking, spaced 7 days apart, so it never feels spammy.
Booking page improvements
Small but mighty. Your booking page is doing a lot of trust-building work, so it needs to actually represent your clinic.
Your booking page, your details. Email, phone, website and social media icons added to your booking page, editable from your profile builder.
Links to your policies and business info. Whether it’s your late cancellation or no show policy, or your complaints procedures - you will be able to add links to your policies to your booking page.
Embeddable booking link. Drop your Glowday booking link straight into your own website, so patients get a seamless journey from your homepage to your diary.
Custom colours. Set background, heading and copy colours on your booking page to match your clinic brand, rather than defaulting to ours.
FAQs
When will all of this land? This sprint kicks off 1 June 2026. We'll communicate release dates feature by feature as each one ships, so that you’re not waiting any longer than you need to. We’re starting with the diary improvements.
Will any of this cost extra? No. These are improvements to the core product. If you're already a subscriber, you'll get them as part of your existing plan.
What about the wider feature wishlist? We have loads that we plan on adding to Glowday, from payment features (think wallets, memberships and Klarna) to reporting and marketing. This sprint is the quick wins as we grow our engineering team. I’ll share the full roadmap in a separate post.
I’d like to put some ideas forwards? The best way to let us know what you’re wanting from Glowday is to complete the survey.
