Clockwise is currently available and supported via Chrome and Firefox extensions in line with your Google calendar experience. Alternatively, you can still access Clockwise through your preferred web browser at www.getclockwise.com/app.
Clockwise works best when you use our browser extensions. If you use just the web browser, you may see some limitations in sync times and overall experience.

Clockwise extension experience:
- Clockwise will be in line with your Google calendar, no need to open a new tab
- All updates can be made directly from your Gcal extension or even within the Gcal UI
Clockwise Web App experience:
- Clockwise is not in line with your Google calendar, you’ll need to open another tab to access your settings or make updates

The value of using a browser like Brave is that it blocks ads and website trackers that maintain your privacy by not sharing cookies. However, this becomes an issue when using it with Clockwise, because Clockwise needs these cookies to provide service to end-users.
While Brave is not the ideal browser to use Clockwise, you are able to configure your Brave browser settings to make it work. See the steps below to configure:
