Never miss a meeting again

Meeting Time turns the meetings on your Google Calendar into real alarms — the kind that break through Silent Mode and Focus, and keep ringing until you deal with them.

Coming soon to the App Store · iPhone · iOS 26 or later

A notification is a suggestion. An alarm is not.

Calendar reminders arrive as banners — silenced by the mute switch, hidden by Focus, gone in five seconds if you happen to look away. That's how meetings get missed.

Calendar notification

Easy to miss

  • Silenced by the ring/silent switch
  • Suppressed by Focus and Do Not Disturb
  • Disappears after a few seconds
  • Buried under everything else
Meeting Time alarm

Impossible to miss

  • Sounds through Silent Mode and Focus
  • Takes over the screen like a Clock alarm
  • Rings until you stop it
  • Fires even if the app was never opened

Meeting Time uses AlarmKit, the same alarm system behind the iPhone's Clock app — so meetings get the alert level normally reserved for waking you up.

For the moments a banner won't reach you

Meetings don't get missed because you forgot they existed. They get missed because of where you were and what you were doing when the reminder quietly came and went.

Heads down in a coding session

You're deep in a problem with your phone face down and Do Not Disturb on, because that's the only way the work gets done. Two hours later you surface to a Slack message asking if you're joining. An alarm gets through deep work in a way a banner never will.

Away from your desk

Making lunch, walking the dog, out on an errand, at the gym between calls. Your laptop is where the calendar reminder popped up, and you're not in front of it. Meeting Time alarms the phone in your pocket instead.

Your phone's been on silent since Monday

Plenty of people never take their iPhone off silent. Every calendar notification you've been sent this week arrived without a sound. Alarms don't care about the mute switch.

Working from home

No colleague wandering past your desk to say the standup started. The only thing standing between you and a missed meeting is a five-second banner on a screen you might not be looking at.

Wearing headphones

Music, a podcast, noise cancelling on. A subtle notification chime is exactly the sort of thing that gets lost underneath — an alarm isn't.

A meeting you agreed to weeks ago

The interview, the doctor's appointment, the one-off call with someone you really shouldn't keep waiting. The ones that only happen once are the ones worth an alarm.

How it works

Connect once. It looks after itself from there.

  1. Connect Google Calendar Sign in with Google and grant read-only calendar access. Add a second account if work and personal live in different places.
  2. It works out what matters Meetings with other people or a video link get alarms. Focus blocks, out-of-office, declined invites and events you marked Free don't.
  3. You stay in control Every event has a switch and an explanation. Turn one off, or silence a whole recurring series, in a tap.

Built to stay out of your way

The details that make it something you can forget about.

Keeps itself in sync

Checks your calendar in the background and keeps up to two days of alarms armed, so a meeting moved late still rings at the right time.

Says what's armed

A running count of armed alarms, a morning summary of the day ahead, and a warning if it ever hasn't been able to check your calendar.

Widgets

Today's alarms on your Home Screen and Lock Screen, so you know what's coming before you unlock.

Ring on your terms

Choose how many minutes before a meeting the alarm sounds, and pick a gentler tone than the standard alarm if you'd rather.

Two accounts, one alarm

Connect work and personal Google accounts. A meeting that lands on both rings once, not twice.

Your calendar stays yours

Events are read straight from Google to your iPhone and stay there. No server of ours ever sees your calendar.

Privacy, plainly

Meeting Time has no account system and no calendar server. Your events are fetched from Google directly by your iPhone, stored only on your device, and used only to schedule alarms. Titles, times, guests and links are never transmitted to us or to anyone else.

The app can send a small anonymous usage count — how many alarms have fired and how many accounts are connected — to help improve it. It's tied to a random ID, never to you, and you can switch it off in Settings. Full detail in the privacy policy.
