Works flawlessly.

Great concept, brilliantly executed. Can't complain about the pricing. Highly recommend.

Suggested tweaks

Nice and simple, works effectively.
I'd like to see it tweaked so that the good/bad times are linked to the city you're choosing...or even better, to a contact in that city. For instance for me in my home city my good times to call are anywhere between 8 am and 1 am...but for my parents overseas they have a different range of what's good and bad. And for a work contact in the same city it's different again.
And I don't see the use at the moment of creating your own rules if you can only choose the same good/okay/bad options...if you could enter custom definitions and define individuals this app would rock (ie: defining someone's lunch break or a precise time that suits them). Then it would not only be good for other time zones but for coordinating schedules with people in your own city!

Great for travellers

As a frequent flyer(250,000miles last year), this is an indispensable little tool. Fantastic for arranging teleconferences with overseas people and just to know what the time is in different locations. The widget on the desktop is also great and I am never lost or unaware of the time around the cities that I travel to.

Great app!!

As someone who facilitates conference calls across three continents, this app is a life saver! I can customize the list of cities to quickly find the best time to a call. Again,it's not the same functionality as "Clock". This app allows you to set business rules to help find the best time to set up international conference calls. It suggests the times and presents the time in a logical way. I understand it appears the same as Clock, but it isn't. I wish users would use the app before rating it. If you don't use it, don't rate it. This is a critical app for those who work with people across the globe. Great job!

Very useful

Have to have one. Hope to see more locations in the future apdates , I mean it's got enough geographical coverage but due to nature of this up more exotic locations should be added

Most useful App I've found...

..besides the phone and iPod feature. Besides being really easy to use and super-functional, the practical aspects must be misunderstood by the guy that said 'just use a clock'... I am frequently organizing conference calls on 4 continents, in 6 time zones, some that are on the 1/2 hour, and this is an invaluable tool for that. More simply, when I get ready to call somebody in Adelaide, AUS, when I am in Copenhagen, DK, it just great to double check the hour there!

The key feature

Noting some of the negative comments I think many are missing the key features. The ability to scroll through time zones to pick the right time for conference calls across all cities is the key. Difficult to see when you can't download a demo so my suggestion if you have a Mac is to try the free widget which has the same features. Finding the best time for a conference call across many time zones has never been easier and this cannot be done with the built in clock application.
