The DOFOTT figure drawing a route between two pins on a paper map, a toy car and a clock beside it

Everything we have worked out about travel time and calendars, written down. The guides explain the problem and the manual way round it. The comparisons put DOFOTT next to the alternatives, including where they beat us. The app pages cover the tools people keep beside their calendar.

Guides

How to add travel time to Google Calendar — Google Calendar has no travel-time setting. Two ways to add it: by hand, event by event, or automatically with DOFOTT, from Google Maps, there and back.
Travel time for a meeting that repeats — A weekly meeting needs travel time every week. What Google Calendar does, where doing it by hand breaks, and how one repeating block covers the series.
Google Calendar and travel time: what is missing, and what it costs — Google Calendar shows where a meeting is but keeps the road to it free. Why that matters, what a real fix needs, and how DOFOTT does it.
Clockwise is gone: what replaces its travel time — Clockwise shut down on 27 March 2026 and its travel-time holds went with it. What they did, what you can do now, and how DOFOTT puts the trip back.

DOFOTT and the alternatives

DOFOTT vs Add Travel Time — Two tools that write the same travel blocks, with the same price on the label. Where they really differ: Outlook, the free tier, and what a quiet month costs.
DOFOTT vs Morgen — Morgen is a daily planner that also blocks your commute. DOFOTT only blocks the commute. Which one you need, and what each costs.
DOFOTT vs Reclaim.ai — Reclaim defends a whole week and has a real free plan — but its travel time sits on the Business tier. What that costs, and what it buys.
DOFOTT vs Motion — Motion schedules your whole day and lets you block 15, 30 or 60 minutes of travel by hand. DOFOTT blocks the trip Google Maps actually measures.

Works with

Why Apple Calendar travel time doesn't reach Google — Apple Calendar's travel time stays in Apple's app: Google Calendar, colleagues and booking pages never see it. What does reach them, and how to check.
Apps DOFOTT works with — DOFOTT writes travel blocks into Google Calendar, so any app showing your Google account shows them too: Apple Calendar, Notion Calendar, Akiflow and more.
Add travel time to Notion Calendar — Notion Calendar has no travel-time setting. DOFOTT adds travel blocks to your Google account, and Notion Calendar shows them, timed by Google Maps.
Add travel time to Akiflow — Akiflow has no travel time: its buffer only spaces out booked meetings. DOFOTT adds travel blocks to your Google account, and Akiflow shows them.
Add travel time to Cal.com bookings — Cal.com's buffers are the same for every booking. DOFOTT adds the real trip from Google Maps around each in-person booking, and your booking page respects it.
Add travel time to Superhuman Calendar — Superhuman Calendar has no travel time, so the free times you share can land on the drive. DOFOTT adds travel blocks to Google, and Superhuman respects them.
Add travel time to Calendly — Calendly's buffers are the same for every meeting. DOFOTT adds the real trip from Google Maps around each in-person booking, and your Calendly link respects it.
Add travel time to Sunsama — Sunsama has no travel time, so the day you plan looks roomier than it is. DOFOTT adds travel blocks to your Google account, and Sunsama shows them.
Add travel time to SavvyCal — SavvyCal's buffers are the same for every booking. DOFOTT adds the real trip from Google Maps around each in-person meeting, and your SavvyCal links respect it.
Add travel time to TidyCal — TidyCal's buffer is a fixed gap after each booking. DOFOTT adds the real trip from Google Maps before and after it, and your booking page respects it.
