Good to know

  • The region applies to the whole family.
  • Beeside fetches the data every night from the OpenHolidays API and adds the cantons' own holiday plans for Switzerland.
  • Some cantons leave school holidays to the municipalities. Then Beeside shows the canton's plan with the note “Municipalities may differ”.
  • Holidays can't be edited. Tapping one shows its source.
