By syncing your Google Calendar with Google Assistant, you can simply ask about your day, how long it’ll take to get to an event, or add new appointments to your day without looking at a screen.
Smart homes and voice assistants are designed to take the grunt work out of day-to-day tasks, keeping you from relying on your failing brain to know what’s on your calendar, and when. Below the guest list, you can even check out Google’s suggested meeting times if you’d rather let the machine take over. If you have used appointment slots before last years. Released in 2022, this drastically overhauled feature set greatly expanded on what was possible with appointment slots. If they’re sharing even basic calendar information with you, you’ll be able to see when they’re busy or free, and pick a slot that accommodates everyone’s openings. Similar in functionality to its predecessor, appointment slots, appointment scheduling allows you to curate openings in your calendar for others to book time with you. When you create your event, select the “Find a Time” section next to “Event Details,” and add the guests you’d like to include in your scheduling process. So instead of ending up with an email chain as long as a CVS receipt, leave it to Google to find some times perfect for everyone. Unless you’re sharing your agenda with everyone you interact with, scheduling meetings with more than one person can be an exercise in frustration. Let Your Calendar Coordinate Your Meetings Think of it as your customizable life coach. The more you complete (or put off) your goals, the better Google Calendar will get at picking prime times for you to stay on track.
