Questions
Things people ask.
Start with the six most people ask.
What does Atlas actually do?
It maps your whole group on one world map, finds when your days overlap, and writes the meeting to each calendar in local time.
How does it find a time?
It scores every fifteen-minute slot across the next five working days against everyone’s working hours, then floats the very best one to the top.
Does it write to my calendar?
Yes. One tap adds it to Apple Calendar, or hands off to Google, Outlook or a .ics file, with local times written in.
Can I save groups for later?
Yes. Keep separate groups for work, a project or family, and jump straight to any of them with ⌘1 to ⌘9.
Do the others need it too?
No, only you need it. Everyone else simply receives a normal calendar invite, shown to them in their own local time zone.
Is it one price, paid once?
Yes. Atlas is a one-time $4.99, on up to three Macs forever, with no subscription and every future update included.
Search the rest, or browse by topic.
How does it decide which time is best?
It scans every 15-minute slot across the next five working days and scores each against everyone’s working hours, then picks the one where even the least-convenienced person is as well-off as possible. It offers the best three.
Can I choose a different time myself?
Yes. Drag along the working-hours band on the map to scrub to any moment; everyone’s local times update live, and three alternative slots stay one click away.
What is Quick Check?
A scratch pad for a one-off: press ⌘K, drop in a couple of cities, see the overlap, and close it without saving, or keep it as a group.
Does it understand weekends in other countries?
Yes. Working days follow each person’s region, so a Friday-to-Saturday weekend in the Gulf or a Sunday weekend in the US is handled correctly. Days that fall on anyone’s weekend are hidden unless you include them.
Will it warn me about daylight saving?
If a slot crosses a daylight-saving change or the international date line, Atlas flags it on the meeting marker.
Does it write to my real calendar?
Yes. One tap adds the meeting to Apple Calendar, or hands off to Google, Outlook or Yahoo, or saves a universal .ics file, whichever you use.
Does Atlas read my calendar?
Only if you turn it on. With access granted it quietly hides times that clash with what you’ve already booked and flags a conflict before you send. It is read-only and off by default.
Does it invite my teammates for me?
Atlas writes the event with everyone’s local time in the notes; you add the invitees in your calendar app, so the invitation comes from your own account.
Will everyone see the right time?
Yes. The event is stored in universal time, so each person’s calendar shows it in their own zone automatically, and the notes spell out the local time for all.
Can it make a recurring meeting?
Atlas creates a single event. To repeat it, set it to recurring in your calendar app once it’s there.
Does Atlas send my data anywhere?
No accounts, no servers, no telemetry. Your team list, settings and calendar stay on your Mac.
Then what ever leaves my Mac?
Only three small things: a one-time location lookup with Apple Maps to find your time zone, a licence check when you activate, and update checks. Nothing about your schedule or team.
Why does it ask for my location?
To set your own time zone and pin you on the map. Your coordinates go only to Apple Maps for the lookup, never to Atlas.
Does it read my files or photos?
No. The only thing it can read is your calendar, and only if you allow it.
Is it a subscription?
No. Atlas is a one-time $4.99 purchase, with no recurring charges, no upgrade fees, and every future update included.
Is there a free trial or refund?
There is no free trial, but every purchase is covered by our 14-day money-back guarantee: if Atlas is not right for your team, just email support@theodorehq.com within 14 days of buying and we will refund you in full, no questions asked.
How many Macs can I use it on?
Up to three. You can deactivate a Mac in Settings to free a slot for a new one.
Do I pay again for updates?
Never. Updates are free for the life of the app.
Will Atlas run on my Mac?
It needs macOS 13 Ventura or later. It is a Universal app, native on Apple Silicon and supported on Intel.
Does it work offline?
Yes. Once your location is set, the map and scheduling work without a connection; only the calendar hand-off and updates need the internet.
How do updates arrive?
Atlas checks on its own and lets you install when you are ready. You are always asked first.
Isn’t this just Calendly?
No. Calendly is a booking page billed monthly. Atlas is a native Mac app that maps your whole team, finds the slot, and writes the invite, for $4.99 once.
How is it different from a world-clock app?
A world clock shows the time in each city. Atlas goes further: it scores every slot, steers around your conflicts, and books the meeting.
Do my teammates need Atlas too?
No. Only you need it. Everyone else just receives a normal calendar invite in their own time zone.
