New Plugin idea Simple Time Picker (Time Only)

Plugins
#1

I’d like to suggest the following idea.

I’ve been searching for this feature, and currently there is no good solution. It’s also not possible to build it easily with Bubble itself.

Plugin Purpose: Simple Time Picker (Time Only)
There are many DateTime pickers available, but not a single decent Time-Only Picker. This is important because in many apps (booking systems, scheduling, reservations, sports practices, etc.), the user only needs to pick a time, not a full date. Forcing them to use a DateTime picker makes the UI confusing and less user-friendly.

A perfect example of what’s needed can be seen in Google Calendar when you set an appointment time, you can either type directly into the field or select the time from a clean dropdown.

This would be ideal:

  • The user can type the time manually in the field.
  • The user can also pick the time from a dropdown.
  • When the user clicks, the dropdown opens and preselects the currently chosen time.
  • The user can either choose a new time from the dropdown or change the time manually by typing.

Hi @clerk,

Thanks a lot for sharing your idea :raised_hands:
We completely understand where you’re coming from - having a clean time-only picker can significantly improve the UX for cases like bookings or scheduling.

The good news is that this functionality is already available in our Air Date Time Picker Plugin for Bubble. To achieve exactly what you described, you need to set the element’s Type to Only Timepicker. This way, users can type the time manually.

Hi Constantin,

Thanks for the helpful information!

I recommend adding the time-only picker functionality to the demo page. Currently, the demo only showcases date-related features, and including this would be a great addition.

Best regards,
