About this tool
World Clock shows the time right now in every city you work with, next to your own. Each card gives the local time to the second, the date, the zone’s short name such as BST or AEDT, how many hours ahead or behind you it is, and a sun or moon so you can see at a glance who is probably asleep.
The meeting planner below lines up a 24-hour strip for each city on the same moments. Pick a date, drag the handle or tap an hour, and every city’s local time and day appear together. Hours inside everyone’s working day are outlined in green, and the planner tells you the best window, or the closest one when there is no perfect slot. When you have a time, copy a ready-made summary such as “Thu 8 Oct 09:00 Sydney = Wed 7 Oct 23:00 London” for your invite.
It uses your browser’s own time-zone rules, so daylight-saving changes are right for the date you choose, including the odd 23- and 25-hour days. Search covers over 400 time zones plus popular cities that share one, like Mumbai or San Francisco. Nothing is sent anywhere; your list stays in this browser.
How to use World Clock & Meeting Planner
- Type in “Add a city or zone” and pick a match. You can search by city, country, abbreviation such as PST, or an offset like +5:30.
- Reorder cards with the up and down arrows, or remove one with ×. Switch between 24 h and 12 h at the top.
- In “Meeting planner”, choose the date, the city whose time to plan in, your working hours and the meeting length.
- Drag the bright handle, tap an hour, use the slider, or press “Jump to best time”.
- Press “Copy meeting summary” and paste it into your calendar invite or message.
Example
Planning from Sydney with London and New York on Thursday 8 October 2026: 09:00 in Sydney is 23:00 on Wednesday in London and 18:00 on Wednesday in New York, so the planner marks London and New York as outside working hours and suggests a better window.
Features

- Working hours you set (Monday to Friday), with everyone’s overlap highlighted and a best-time suggestion.
- Correct daylight-saving handling for any date, with a note on 23- and 25-hour days.
- Meeting length from 15 minutes to 2 hours, shown on the strips and in the summary.
- One-tap copy of a summary that lists each city’s day, date and start and end time.
Tips and good to know
- Weekends count as non-working, so a Monday morning in Sydney, which is still Sunday in the Americas, will not show as an overlap.
- If your team spans more than about ten hours, there is often no shared working hour. Look at the “Closest” suggestion and take turns with the early or late slot.
- Use “Plan in the time of” to see the strips from a colleague’s point of view; the chosen moment stays the same.
- Daylight saving starts and ends on different dates around the world, so the gap between two cities can change by an hour for a few weeks in March, April, October and November. Always plan on the real date.
Frequently asked questions
Is my list of cities uploaded anywhere?
No. The clocks and the planner run entirely in your browser. Your cities and settings are saved in this browser’s own storage and are never sent to AroraTools or anyone else.
Is it free? How many cities can I add?
It is free with no sign-up. You can compare up to 12 places at once besides your own, which keeps the planner readable.
Does it work on my phone and offline?
Yes. On a phone the strips scroll sideways while the city names stay in view, and you can tap an hour or use the slider. After the page has loaded it keeps working without a connection, because the time-zone rules come from your device.
Does it handle daylight saving time?
Yes. Every time is worked out with your browser’s built-in time-zone database for the exact date you choose, so clocks that go forward or back are shown correctly, including days with 23 or 25 hours.
Why can’t I find my town?
Time zones are named after one main city each, such as America/Chicago. Search for a larger city nearby, your country, or your UTC offset like −6 or +5:30, and pick the match with the right time.
How accurate are the clocks?
They show your device’s clock converted to each zone. If your phone or computer sets its time automatically, they will be correct to the second.
