The Free Waitlist App for Nail Salons

When a manicure or fill cancels, Appointify texts your waitlist and the first client to reply takes the time. Always free, and it runs alongside the booking software you already use.

No credit card required Set up in minutes iOS & Android
The problem

A canceled fill leaves your techs and tables empty

A gel mani cancels last minute, a pedicure no-shows, and a tech is suddenly idle with an open table. Backfilling that slot means scrolling your phone and texting clients hoping someone is free right now. The clients who wanted an earlier appointment never find out it opened.

  • Instantly text your whole waitlist the moment a slot opens.
  • The first client to reply books it — no phone tag.
  • Works alongside the booking software you already use.
  • Always free — no credit card, no contracts.
