Just the link

A link, who it's for, what it's for, how you want to start, possible times, and buttons to send it.

Mockup only. Nothing on this page works, saves or sends anything. People are made up.

Scenario: Alex (Melbourne) wants coffee with Sam (London), 10 hours behind. Tap a choice in any start screen to jump to that flow.

1 · Suggest timesAlex suggests, Sam taps one.

Sam opens the link: Alex's times in London time. Suggesting others is possible, but small, because Alex chose "Suggest".

Two equal options: tap one of Alex's times (booked, step 4), or add Sam's own and send them back (Alex picks, step 7).
