Because of how lots of reminders work. There isn't even a good way to tell Google calendar to always notify 1 minute before events - I had to do it through slack integration.
So instead the reminder usually tells you a meeting will be in 15min which quite often is a useless information. Then the app tells you the meeting started right now and you still need a few seconds to wrap things up and prepare.

- quesera 2y agoMultiple notifications are a great feature. I use two: "10 minutes before" and "1 minute before". Because 10 minutes is just enough to wrap up something I'm in the middle of, and simultaneously, 10 minutes is well past long enough to get distracted if I'm not already deep in the middle of something. :)
- usr1106 2y agoNeed to check that when I am at my desk. I use 10 minutes and then remind me again in 5 minutes. Which isn't working all too well. If I miss the the first one by a minute, the second one comes 1 minute after the meeting started. So I'll join 2 minutes late. And in our company we take proud in not starting late.
