Stay time-aware without trying

Set Humble as your new tab page and your calendar’s always in view — so you naturally lose track of time less

Individual Calendar

The problem

Time blindness doesn’t announce itself. You look up from something absorbing and the afternoon has gone, the meeting started ten minutes ago and the day has rearranged itself around one task.

What changes

Your calendar is simply there — on every new tab you open — so the next thing in your day keeps drifting past your eyes without you having to remember to check.

How Humble helps

1
Set Humble as your new tab page
Every new tab shows your day: your tasks and what’s coming up next.
2
Connect your calendar
Your meetings appear alongside your tasks, so the next commitment is always in view.
3
Let the day stay visible
No alarms, no guilt — just a gentle, constant sense of where you are in the day, refreshed every time you open a tab.

Set it up

Takes about two minutes

  1. Install the Humble extension in your browser.
  2. Allow it to set your new tab page when prompted.
  3. Go to Settings, then Connections, and connect Google Calendar.
  4. Open a new tab — your day is there.
