2024-10-28 | Mina Mikhail | en | Hi Team, I have an issue regarding the extension. I did couple of testes on three deferent laptops and found the extension "Offset start-times in Google Calendar " is causing the error specially with OOO option and it might not synced with latest Chrome version. | |
2024-10-21 | Chinmay Bijwe | en | This used to be amazing, but something broke recently where when you create an event, instead of seeing a modal to create an event, it goes straight to event editing screen, and somehow sets 1 hr events. I had to disable this amazing extension. Please fix it and bring it back! | |
2024-06-13 | Austin Brown | en | Works great, but doesn't align with my typical workflow. I run Google Calendar as a progressive web app, and the extension only works in the browser and not in the PWA (This is fixed now!). It also only works when clicking a time slot to create a new meeting, but not when creating from the +Create button or the C shortcut. I LOVE shortening meetings on the front end. It gives me a better breath of fresh air between meetings than ending 5 early (which, realistically, is usually ignored or forgotten) | |
2024-05-21 | Elaine Morley | en | Love love love this! Our standard in US Card is to start all meetings 5 or 10 minutes late, depending if it's a 25 minute or 50 minute meeting. This really helps make this easy. I have short meeting turned on and Google would end my meeting 5 minutes early but that was the opposite of what we do in Card so this is magic. Thank you! | |

2024-04-01 | Chris Irving | en | Simple and effective. My team has agreed to start meetings 5 mins past the hour/half-hour. This extension makes life so much easier. | |

2023-04-04 | Rafe Hatfield | en | Simple and awesome (simply awesome). Combine it with the "Speedy Meetings" setting in Google Calendar and you have an awesome helper for meeting-packed schedules. | |
2023-09-21 | Jordan Wight | I like the idea of starting meetings 5 minutes after the hour, because it's very hard to end meetings 5 minutes before the hour. This extension works as described, but I decided to remove it. It starts my meeting at 2:05 like I want, but then the meeting ends at 3:05, and I want it to end at 3:00. So I still need to manually adjust my meeting length/times. | ||
