Flyer to calendar
Photo a school flyer, swim meet poster, or library handout - Sense reads the flyer and puts the event on your family calendar with reminders before any RSVP deadlines.
How it works
-
Photo the flyer
Walking out of school, unpacking the backpack, dropping the mail. Take the photo while you remember.
-
Upload to Sense
Tap attach in chat and pick the photo. Or share directly from iOS Photos via the share sheet.
-
Recycle the paper
The event is on the calendar. Sense will nudge you before the RSVP deadline.
What Sense pulls from a flyer
-
The headline event
"Book Fair: May 12-16" - title, date range, often a recurring all-week event.
-
RSVP and signup deadlines
"Please respond by Friday" - Sense creates a separate reminder so you don't miss it.
-
Location and logistics
Room number, drop-off door, parking, what to wear - saved in event notes.
-
Fees and what to bring
"$5 fundraiser", "bring a snack", "wear sneakers" - the details that prevent jeans-on-jersey-day.
-
Multiple events per flyer
A community center quarterly program with 15 events - all extracted as separate calendar items.
-
Angled, wrinkled, folded photos
Forgiving. Just get the date and title visible - the rest works.
The flyers that pile up
-
School flyers in the backpack

Community and library
Quarterly community center program, library kids' calendar, museum free-admission day.

Summer camp flyers
Registration windows, info nights, sample week schedules - dates buried in 8pt italic at the bottom.

Frequently asked
-
Does the flyer have to be flat or scanned?
No. A wrinkled, folded, slightly angled phone photo works fine. Sense's AI handles imperfect images. Try to get the date and title in clear view - the rest is forgiving.
-
What about flyers with multiple events?
A school event calendar flyer or a community center's quarterly poster can have 10+ dates. Sense pulls each one as its own calendar event. You'll review them and save the ones that apply.
-
What if the flyer is a colorful image with text overlaid?
Most school and community flyers are exactly that. Sense reads through the design and pulls out dates, locations, RSVP deadlines, and what to bring.
-
Can I share the flyer photo via iOS share sheet?
Yes. Long-press the photo in Photos, share to Sense - skips opening the app first. Sense imports the flyer image directly into chat.
