Lunch Events Overview

Save time for lunch every day by automatically syncing a lunch hold to your calendar.  

How it Works

When you enable your Lunch events, Clockwise will automatically create a calendar event that corresponds to your lunch preferences.  These dynamic calendar events are updated in real time as your calendar changes, so you can always have an up-to-date view of the time you have available for lunch. 

Set up & Configuration

To enable your Lunch, go to the Focus Time, Lunch and Travel Time section of Settings, and switch the Lunch toggle on to "Automatically schedule lunch events on my calendar".

To access your Focus Time, Lunch and Travel Time from settings:

• Chrome extension: Top left corner of your extension through the Menu button and click Settings
• Web App: Click on your profile avatar, select Menu from the drop down and click on Settings

To ensure the events appear when you intend to eat lunch, make sure that your lunch settings are up to date.  Go to Settings, and select "Focus Time, Lunch and Travel Time" then customize your preferences.
