Event Durations for Google Calendar

Shows event durations on Google Calendar.

Event Durations for Google Calendar is a useful Chrome extension that enhances your Google Calendar experience by calculating and displaying the duration of events in the weekly view.

The extension supports 27 languages including English, Spanish, French, Chinese, Japanese, and more. If any issues arise due to Google Calendar design changes, users can contact support via email.

This is such a helpful etension that does it job. I've had it for years and I was surprised that it dissappeared with a recent update. I'm sad that Chrome is saying that it isn't available and will soon be removed. Could we have an update that it can continue or be intergrated into google calendar.
