Customizable Default Meeting Hours

[dkhotsom]

Hello, I'm really disappointed to find out that we cannot manually enter or set for our organizations the default meeting hours. It goes from 15, 20, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes.

We actually find it useful to set 50 minute meetings on the calendar to allow time in between meetings (especially if you have back-to-back meetings) for bio breaks, stretches, topping off coffee or tea, etc. That 10 minutes in between meetings is valuable.

I know it shouldn't be too difficult to add another option for 50 minutes in there, so I really do hope someone out there can do us this huge favor. It really is time consuming to make a meeting and change the times to be 50 minutes long when it can be set as a default.

I think the setting you’re looking for is the “speedy meetings” setting within your Google Calendar settings. Does that fit the bill?

Hi Ian,

I never noticed that before, but when I did click on it, it made my default as 50 minutes. Thank you! I was hoping to turn it on for all people at my org, but I can create some guidance around it so folks can do the same and click on speedy meetings.
