  • Patent number: 11210638
    Abstract: Systems and methods for providing contextual calendar reminders are provided. A host can receive a calendar reminder notifying the host that a calendar for a property listing maintained by the host may need to be updated. The system can provide the host with a reminder to update the calendar for the property listing based on criteria related to the expected number of times the host will view the calendar within a designated time period and the timing of the host's last interaction with the calendar. If the designated criteria are satisfied, the system can generate a reminder for the host to update the calendar for the property listing. Before sending the reminder to the host, the system confirms that the host did not recently interact with the calendar and if the host did interact with the calendar, the system cancels the sending of the reminder.
