Start Using Travel Time
Travel time is a pretty useful feature from the Calendar app. What’s cool about it is that you can enable this feature and turn on travel time. If you enter the location for your next event, your iPhone will automatically notify you when you need to get going based on where you’re going and how you’re getting there.
To use this feature on iPhone, do the following:
- Open the Calendar app.
- Tap on the plus icon in the top right corner of your screen to add a new event.
- Create your new event and make sure to enter the location.
- Tap on Travel Time.
- Toggle Travel Time on.
- If you entered a location for your event, enter your starting location.
If you’re on Mac, do this:
- Open the Calendar app.
- Double click on the date when your event it’s going to be.
- Create your event.
- Enter the location of your event.
- By default, Calendar should already add the option to Alert me when I need to leave. If not, click on Add Alert, Repeat or Travel Time and select that option.
Your Calendar will do the rest. Note that you’ll need to have given the Calendar app access to your location.
