Calendar notification snooze in Big Sur?

With the latest update the other day I don’t even have the calendar pop-up options at all anymore… It’s probably not worth it to even look into since it’s just snoozed for one minute at a time. If it’s not one thing it’s another…

I was happy to see more options in the updated snooze function. HOWEVER, it would be nice to have the option returned to say "Snooze for 1 day", or something in between 1 hour and "The End of Time". What kind of snarky person came up with that? Are you not-so-silently judging those of us who use the snooze function to schedule and remind ourselves of things in different ways than you do? And what does "the end of time" snooze function even mean--isn't that like dismissing the alert altogether, in which case, what's the point of having that snooze option ? I just don't understand. PLEASE, just add 1 day, 2 days, 1 week, something normal.

Dear Apple,

the "remember me later option" is back, but nothing is fine!

What's the difference between 5 and 15 minutes? Why this small gap?

Where are 6 hours osr 12 hours and most important: 1day ??????

Why didn't your hear, what the users want.

Why not give the possibility to declare up to 6 free reminder periods in the settings.

Why do want want to rule the user?

I can't understand.......

Yes, this is really disruptive. I would love love love apple to give us the snooze options back. The pop-up blocks part of my screen every 5 minutes or so! Plus, it dominates whatever I "was" typing. Please fix it.

Yes I agree- I really appreciate this feature being added back, but I would still like it to be back to the options that were there previously. I think it would be great to have a longer duration of time. I have different events and sometimes it is nice to be able to snooze them for longer periods of time. However, I am happy that it is longer than 5 minutes now. Thank you!

Broken again. Who at Apple thinks the limited snooze options for calendar items are acceptable? This is not an alarm clock -- this is a calendar management tool. Do they not live/work in the real world? As of 11.6, this is unacceptable. Again. Please fix. Again.

This is one of those small annoyances that prevent me from switching to Big Sur. There's always an option to use a different calendar app I guess but this feature has always "just worked" in the past so it's really frustrating that it's being intentionally removed for no apparent reason.

Applsolute foolery once again on behalf of bored staff at Apple that need something to do - just leave it alone.

If it's NOT broken DON'T fix it! Spend some time fixing actual issues and making improvements not circling around the same pool attacking your tail.

Apple the bigger it gets the worse it gets (when it comes to software) - read this and weep bored engineers I'm sure you have plenty of spare time

I have a different opinion than Apple about how long my Snooze options should be. Why won't Apple provide a Calendar Preference that allows me to set the various Snooze options, like 1 hour, 2 hours, 4 hours, 1 day, etc? I don't like being limited to their idea of what Snooze durations we should have.

I think that is exactly how we would all like it to be. I seriously wonder if the people at Apple themselves don't get annoyed about what the development department is putting together. Or maybe they use Outlook as a calendar...?? :-\

Snooze notifications are back! Yes, as I was writing an email to Apple about this issue this morning. I started taking screen shot's of the pop up notifications on my Monterey (12.0.1) test machine and I double glanced and noticed the notifications are back! I almost fell off my chair.

It is somewhat a little different (Instead of the "Snooze" button, it is now called "Options" and they have added 'Snooze for....') The ordering is back to front like ('Snooze until 30 minutes before') is not sorted ascending. It should be '5 mins, 15 mins, 30 mins, but is descending from 30 mins. Weird.

Below is one screen shot of Catalina's snooze options and on the the bottom are the new Monterey snooze options. You will notice there's also a new handy drop down that shows the calendar.

Now, if only they could bring back the 'Close' button to replace the awful 'x' on the top left of the notification. What was wrong with the Close button? It was all in one place and now you have to move from right to left to highlight the 'x' button. The 'x' I feel is too small and cumbersome.

Submitted feedback as well. Calendar is nearly useless without the snooze length options.

Absurd.

I can't believe I wasted so much time only to learn this.

How stupid.

Thanks! I submitted request also. Great that you included link!
