Limited number of cities. Only available as a widget that doesn't expand to fill all space. Only viewable as a widget, no app. Constant messages about widget being installed won't leave me alone

This app is wonderful. Easy to use and set up. My only complaint is that once you have 3 or more cities the font is a bit small. Other than that its sweet!

Not quite perfect yet but good concept. No updates in 6 months despite suggesting updates "coming soon"so i have removed a star. Suggestions; No India!! Have chosen "Asia Kolkata" to get the right time zone but that's not ideal; allow custom time zone order on clock; ability to rename timezones; customisable colours per time zone; Thanks

I used it to predict when I would be tired and if a nap was safe or might make things worse tomorrow. I only gave it 4 stars because some of the business use assumptions clash with sleep planing. For example it does not allow you to add the TZ you are about to leave into the schedule.

This app is great, exactly what I need. Please continue to improve this app's interfacea and functionality. Please consider a smaller widget that can pop up (into a bigger and air-like widget with user interface). Thanks!

But where are any cities in India? Searching on India does not bring them up. Neither does anything come up looking for Indian cities. Can I add them manually?

Works great...suggestion: make the local time dots clickable so they display the times that way we don't have to calculate increments manually. All in all great work!

Great for anyone who works with clients around the world, in different timezones. Visual representation of working hours around the world. Helps you get an overview of when co-workers or clients have overlapping working hours with you. Great for setting up meeting times and working abroad.

I hate calculating time zones and sometimes get mixed up - this app lets me figure out what time works best for my international clients, at a glance.

Suggest zoomability, resizability. Quite hard to read labels on even a large phone. Better for tablet. Great app
