Free World Clock
Live times for cities around the world.
What is the World Clock?
When your colleagues, clients or family are spread across time zones, 'what time is it there right now?' becomes a constant question. This world clock answers it at a glance: live times for the cities you care about, ticking second by second, with a sun or moon so you can tell instantly whether it's a reasonable hour to call.
It uses your device's own time-zone data and saves your city selection — nothing is uploaded.

What does this tool do?
You choose the cities that matter to you and see each one's current time updating live. A sun or moon icon shows day or night at a glance, so you know before you dial whether someone's likely awake. Your selection is remembered in your browser for next time.
Add or remove cities anytime from a simple set of chips.

Common mistakes to avoid
Forgetting daylight saving differences
Fix: The clock is accurate, but remember countries change clocks on different dates when planning ahead.
Only tracking others' cities
Fix: Add your own too so you can read the time difference directly.
Adding too many cities
Fix: Keep it to the places you coordinate with so the view stays useful.
Assuming the selection syncs
Fix: It's saved per-browser; set it up on the device you use.
