What is Meeting Timer - for Google Chrome?

Meeting Timer - for Google Meet is a free Chrome Extension that allows you to extend all Google Meet calls with a Timer functionality. Our mission is to help you optimize your time and increase productivity.

Google Meet doesn't have built-in Timer natively that would help you stay organised or track the progress of the meeting. Our Google Meet Timer offers both a manual timer (you can type the duration manually) as well as integration with Google Calendar. When integrated, the duration of the meeting is calculated automatically, once the calendar event is matched with the Google Meet call. Yes. Magic! ✨🪄
