Appointment scheduling service Calendly has redesigned its browser extension to enhance schedule management features and make scheduling faster.
The new extension, available for Chrome, Edge, Firefox, and Outlook, includes a ‘Meetings’ tab for managing and joining, canceling, or rescheduling meetings booked through Calendly. The extension also features a ‘Contacts’ tab to view upcoming meetings and meeting history with contacts.
Users can share links to different types of meetings and easily book follow-up calls with current meeting participants.
