I've been using WorldTimeBuddy for many years, which has a much more compact interface. https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/ https://www.worldtimebuddy.com/

  yeah i second this, worldtimebuddy is incredible for pretty much all timezone related stuff

  Absolutely beautiful minimalist tool, deserves to be in any multi-timezone firm's wiki if not right on a dynamic desktop!

  Agreed; this is great and even helps highlight when daylight savings is taking place.

I like the UI, it is so hard to create a UI for anything related to date and time! The feature of creating an image/screenshot (a bit confusing) is really useful. My go to timezone converter is https://dateful.com/time-zone-converter https://dateful.com/time-zone-converter

  vow that is actually a lot sleeker but the worldtimeapp one gives you a clear picture of what the day for the other guy looks like

  I really liked the Windows 8/10 app for world time, until Microsoft axed that one.

I couldn't add "Sydney", "Auckland", "Johannesburg", or "Buenos Aires". Is the entire Southern Hemisphere missing?

  I'm in Sydney, and it's the first column in the UI by default for me. However I still can't add Auckland, Johannesburg, or any other Australian cities I've tried.

It would be nice if this supported continents beyond the following (taken from the source code): - Europe - North America - Asia - Additional cities in Oceania - Additional cities in Africa - Additional cities in South America - Additional cities in North America - Additional cities in Japan - Additional cities in South Korea If you live in a city of more than a few hundred thousand in Africa, Oceania, or China, you're out of luck!

  There are lots of time zone maps with this info available.

Nice UI. I wish it would be possible to reorder the locations so that they can be offsetted correctly. Eg. for me Sydney is the first column. Then New York and I added Bangkok. Bangkok is closer to me timezone wise (i.e. they are a few hours behind) where as New York is nearly a day behind.
- neonitedata 2y ago
  sure, will add reordering! it's on the bucketlist, just needs fixing bugs first
