**Why is this day empty?** Until now every empty day said "No available slots — join the waitlist", even when the real reason was the business's own rule. A business that asks for 24 hours' notice, looked at in the evening, has nothing bookable tomorrow — and that read like a bug. The booking page (web and phone) now says which it is: the minimum notice, a closed day, a day past the book-ahead limit, a day that is over, or genuinely booked out. Only a booked-out day offers the waitlist, because that is the only one that can free up.
**Jump to the earliest day.** With the explanation comes a one-tap button for the earliest day you can actually book, and the calendar greys out days that can never have a time, so you are not left guessing.
**Hourly services.** Next available times now show under hourly services on the business profile, on web and phone. Tapping one books the shortest booking at that time; you can add hours on the next step.
**For businesses: minimum notice in hours and minutes.** Settings → Booking rules → Minimum notice now takes hours plus minutes (for example 1 hour 30 minutes) on web and phone, with quick picks for the common values, and reads the result back in plain words. The same words appear on the customer's booking page and in any booking refusal — never a bare minute count. The setting also explains what a 24-hour notice means for a customer looking the evening before.
