Had some odd features
We've been using Trafft for a little while and paid for the subscription after liking it initially. But it has some odd features which means I'm now looking for an alternative.
When looking for availability in your calendar it will only consider existing "busy" entries. So you can be easily double booked if you've got other invites you haven't accepted yet.
I use it for 30 minute calls mostly - but if you add a buffer so you don't have back to back calls you get a 90 minute invite on your calendar - so you don't get a notification when the call actually starts.
Strange choices from the developers - and not ones they see as important to address unfortunately

Nov 25, 2025Hey!
Appreciate you spending time to share your Trafft experience. Just wanna clear up a few bits. It’s meant to work that way, works like most outside calendars do.
For availability:
Trafft sees busy moments as things that take up your time. Because pending invites usually don't reserve slots in calendars like Google or Outlook, it works the same way. When someone accepts a meeting request and it shows up as occupied on your synced calendar, Trafft steps in right away - stopping overlaps before they happen.
For buffer times:
You don't need to push those extra minutes straight into your outside calendar. Head over to Integrations → Google/Outlook/Apple Calendar - there's a toggle letting you pick if buffers show up in events or just hang out inside Trafft. Just flip that switch off if you don't need buffer times in your calendars.
That bigger chunk you noticed earlier:
If you add a gap before and also after a half-hour session, Trafft adjusts the full reserved period automatically. Say you include 30 minutes upfront plus another 30 at the end - add the 30 minute appointment duration and that’s obviously a 90-minute slot. If you just want more time to finish up, tossing in a delay only afterward (not on both sides) hits the mark.
I hope this makes it a little clearer. Thanks once more for speaking up; hearing from you shows us what feels confusing, which lets us make things better.
