Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Meeting Timezone Planner?

The Meeting Timezone Planner helps you find optimal meeting times when participants are in different timezones. Add participants, set their working hours, and let the tool calculate the best overlapping times.

How many participants can I add?

You can add between 2 and 10 participants. Each participant can have a unique timezone, working hours, and flexibility window configuration.

Does it handle daylight saving time?

Yes, the tool uses the IANA timezone database which automatically accounts for daylight saving time. The overlap calculation uses the correct UTC offsets for the specific meeting date you select.

What are flexible hours?

Flexible hours are optional time windows before or after regular working hours. For example, adding 1 hour flexibility before 9 AM means the participant can accept meetings starting at 8 AM. This increases the chances of finding overlap.

How is the availability score calculated?

The score is based on how many participants are in their prime working hours versus flexible hours at a given time. Slots where everyone is in working hours score 100%, while slots with some participants in flexible hours score lower.

Is my data secure?

Yes, all timezone calculations happen entirely in your browser. No participant data, working hours, or meeting details are ever sent to any server.
