About Time Map
ABOUT:
There is a great map on Wikipedia by TimeZonesBoy with time zone boundaries. I have taken that map and put it in my application and then displayed the correct time on every zone. Some countries use Daylight saving time so I displayed the time on boundaries of DST. The problem was that Android uses an old time zone database. I used Joda-time to correct that problem. It uses the "Olson database" that is frequently updated. Startup is a little slower, but the displayed time is correct now.

CONSIDERATIONS:
You cannot zoom in or out of the map. It's supposed to work with minimum scrolling. The times are calculated on the start or return to the application and are not automatically refreshed. Just get the desired time and close or switch to another application.
There could be some errors for countries that have Daylight Saving Time because the start and end of DST is not the same for all countries.
If you have any complaints about border representation on the map or some errors, it is not my fault. I didn't make the map. I just use it.
ADVERTISEMENTS: This application doesn't have any ads.
PRIVACY:
This application doesn't use any application permission. It just displays a map and puts the correct time on it. Nothing else. It doesn't go to the Internet to retrieve new time zone information. Every major change of time zone database will be a new version of this application. If TimeZonesBoy puts an updated map on Wikipedia, I will also update this application with it.

I happened to update it manually without looking at what it does! Please revert it to previous state where it has names of places. Will rate 5 stars if reverted. Thanks

Time on map should be 24 hour time to avoid confusion. Should have auto scrolling and names of countries. Poor judgment on part of developer.

The original map as it was conceived by TimeZonesBoy is simple and the result was brilliant. When you add those horrible numbers indicating the hours you just ruin the primary idea: keeping in mind accuracy and beauty. Why don´t you just add a feature to zoom in as anyone expected?. Is it really a hard work? " minimum scrolling" you say? Don´t worry people love scrolling! ..Sorry, but I think that the orginal creators of the map deserve a little more respect.(googlers: TimeZonesBoy wiki ). The map is useless if you can´t read the texts.

I love the layout and I would give it 5 stars if it had a zoom function, it's impossible to read the writing. So I'm most probably going to uninstall it.

Can't zoom in to read texts? What's wrong?
by I####:
Simply a full-screen dragable map displaying time zones with the current time in each zone without any ads. Works fine.
