Why this world clock

What is a world clock?

A world clock — sometimes called a global clock — shows the current local time in multiple cities and time zones at once, instead of just the one where you are. This page tracks 300+ capitals and major cities so you can check the time anywhere in the world in a single glance, without doing timezone math yourself.

  1. 01

    Pin the cities you care about

    Search capitals and major metros, or filter by continent, and pin up to 20 cities. Your list is saved on this device.

  2. 02

    Open a city for the full picture

    Tap any city to see its exact local time, UTC offset, and the upcoming sunrise and sunset schedule.

    Plan meetings across zones

    Use the meeting planner ribbon to find hours that work for everyone, then share your board link.

One global clock for every time zone you deal with

Coordinating across time zones for remote work, travel, or calls with family abroad usually means opening a search engine and typing "time in ___" over and over. This world clock keeps every city you check regularly pinned in one place, updating live, so it works as a real global clock for your day-to-day routine rather than a one-off lookup tool.

World clock FAQ

Common questions about using this world clock / global clock.

What is the difference between a world clock and a global clock?
They mean the same thing — a single display showing the current time in multiple places around the world. This page uses both terms because people search for either one.
How many cities are covered?
300+ cities: every capital plus major metros, each with the correct IANA timezone so times stay accurate through daylight saving changes.
Can I add or remove cities from my board?
Yes. Use the search box or continent filter in the city catalog, then tap the pin icon to add or remove a city. Your board is saved on this device (up to 20 pins). You can also share a board link or embed an iframe.
Does it show 12-hour or 24-hour time?
Both — toggle "12-hour clock" on the clock face. The choice is saved for next time.
Can I see sunrise and sunset for a city?
Yes. Select any city to load its sunrise and sunset table. The first 5 days are shown; tap Show more to reveal 5 more at a time, up to 50 days. Polar day and polar night are labeled when they apply.
How do I find a meeting time that works across time zones?
Pin the cities you need, then open the meeting time planner. Scrub one timeline to compare every pin at once. Bright bands are work hours (9:00–18:00 by default, adjustable). Suggested slots highlight times that fall in work hours for everyone — copy them or open them in the calendar.
Does this world clock handle daylight saving time?
Yes. Each city uses its IANA timezone (for example America/New_York or Europe/London), so the displayed time updates automatically when a region starts or ends daylight saving. The current UTC offset is shown for every city.
What does the day and night map show?
It is a live map of which parts of the planet are in daylight right now. Pins mark your board cities and the city in focus. Tap a pin to load that city on the clock above.
Can I share my city board or embed it on a website?
Yes. Share board copies a link with your current pins. Embed this board copies an iframe that follows those pins and your 12/24-hour setting. No account is required.
Is my city list saved to an account?
No. Pinned cities, display settings, and planner choices stay in this browser only. Nothing is uploaded. Reset pins or clear site data if you want a clean board.
