You can now snooze Google Calendar notifications on desktop

Users cannot remove the option to snooze notifications but can change the timing of snoozed notifications in their Calendar notifications settings menu. By default, snoozed notifications reappear one minute before the scheduled meeting and users can re-snooze a notification for an additional five minutes as many times they'd like until the meeting ends.

Google has added the ability for users to snooze Calendar desktop notifications directly from the notification itself. To use this new feature, users must have desktop notifications enabled and Calendar open in a tab to see notifications on their desktop.

In the coming weeks, users with desktop notifications enabled will see a one-time promo regarding this new feature. It is worth mentioning that snoozed notifications only appear in a Google Chrome browser.
