What this setting affects
This is an internal display preference only. It does not move your meetings or change your availability.
- Internal setting only — applies only to your internal view, such as your Bookings list, Availability settings, and Dashboard.
- Public booking page — does not change how times are listed for your guests. Guests always see times based on their own browser’s local standards to avoid confusion.
- Visual preference — purely for your convenience; it does not shift your meeting times or availability slots.

Choosing the right format
- 12-hour (AM/PM) — best if you prefer seeing a distinction between morning and afternoon (e.g., 9:00 AM vs. 4:00 PM).
- 24-hour (military time) — best for professionals working across global timezones who want to eliminate any “AM vs. PM” ambiguity in their internal planning.
Visible changes in your Cal ID dashboard
Once you update your time format and click Update, the change is reflected across your entire account:- Bookings tab — the start and end times for all your scheduled meetings (Upcoming, Past, etc.) automatically update to your selected format (e.g., changing from 2:15 PM to 14:15).
- Availability tab — your working hours and time slots now appear in the 12-hour or 24-hour format you chose, making it easier to set your schedule.
