Gmail – How to Get a Notice by Gmail if Someone Plans a Meeting in Google Calendar

gmailgoogle-calendar

Had this numerous times: someone planned a meet in my calendar without getting a notice somewhere (preferably by mail) that this happened.

Result: getting of meeting notice 10 min before, without me even knowing it was planned.

Must be some setting to change this?

If you haven't done this, you can add/edit notifications in Calendar settings. The default is a popup notification 10 min. before the event so I suspect you haven't edited this.

  • Go to Google Calendar.
  • Click the Settings gear at top right.
  • Choose "Settings" in the dropdown.
  • Click the "Calendars" tab (top left).
  • Look at your list of Calendars. On the right you can "edit notifications" for each calendar.

In here you can Add/edit a notification, choose to get an email or sms when someone invites you to an event, receive a daily agenda etc.
