Has the developer abandoned this app? ### 4/5 — Please update my favorite app! *2021-03-17, version 1.3.3* This is my all-time favorite and most useful app to track time zones and help me call colleagues and customers around the world. Please update it with full-screen mode for the latest iPhones and with widgets for the latest iOS. I’d pay for the app or subscription; the app is that good! ### 4/5 — Almost perfect *2019-04-30, version 1.3.3* This would be perfect if there was an option to set reoccurring alarms. I travel a lot through different time zones. I was hoping the alarm feature would help remind me to take my medications at the same time daily in my home time zone. It's a really great app with a gorgeous interface otherwise ### 4/5 — Widget? *2016-09-18* Really nice app with delight UI. But any plant adding widget for iOS10? Which will make the app much more useable. ### 4/5 — Small size won't take up a lot of room *2016-03-29, version 1.3.2* Good coding but there is no second hand so we can't calibrate our computers and watches to the time. Please update this function and I will change to five stars! ### 5/5 — Beautiful *2016-03-08, version 1.3.2* Stunning color palate and aesthetic combined with clean, modern, flawless interface. Beautiful and efficient at the same time. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — The rev *2016-02-19* Having retired I have been traveling a lot @ globo is the perfect way to manage all time zones . Never missed a flight yet & just as usefull at home ### 5/5 — Globo - world clock and weather *2016-01-20* This is a great app. Have friends and relatives in many time zones around the world. Now I know when they are awake!! ### 5/5 — Great little App *2015-11-04* Which does big things. :-) P.S. iTunes Admins: Thank you for fixing error 404. Appreciated your quick attention. ### 5/5 — Best world clock!! *2015-11-03* This is a great global clock. So easy to set the timezones up and then all really easy to glance at. I've tried free apps that offer world clocks but this is just a great app with a great UI and one I always mention to friends. Definitely worth a purchase. ### 5/5 — Nice app *2015-10-16* I wish widget ### 5/5 — Awesome! *2015-09-12, version 1.3* This app is great! No problems encountered. Easy to use when on the go! Great for traveling! Nice for when I communicate with friends from around the country and the world! Just buy it you won't regret it! Keep up the great work! ### 5/5 — Great App *2015-07-22* Very easy to use and navigate. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Do Not Purchase *2022-10-01* No updates for 7 years and can’t work well on iOS 16 ### 1/5 — not really creating alarms *2022-09-26* i bought this specifically to be able to set alarms at different time zones. This app creates events in your calendars and not real alarms. So if I want a daily alarm, it will create daily events in my calendar. I can do that without an app! paid for it but uninstalling it right away. ### 1/5 — Disappointed *2016-08-28, version 1.3.2* I am a Weather enthusiast & have several weather apps that were free! This is the worst app that I have tried! Half the app is in F & M? I am not interested in the times of each location, I am interested in the temperatures & weather conditions. I also want to know the weather outlook for the week in each location, that includes the temperature. I have paid for this app, which I have deleted & deserve a refund! ### 1/5 — What am I missing? *2014-08-29* I simply don't understand the high ratings for this app. If you want time and weather there are far better ways to achieve it. I don't like the way that you can inadvertently change the time shown by a slip of the finger. Waste of 69p ### 1/5 — Completely Broken *2014-04-14* Today's update has killed the app. Running on iPhone 5S the app appears and then just closes instantly. Have restarted etc but no use. Once fixed I will update my review but thought I better let you know! ### 2/5 — Broken on iOS13+ *2020-09-17* Beautiful app, but broken UI on iOS13+ and larger screens. ### 2/5 — Buggy and not updated *2020-05-19* Should have realised it’s been years since this has been updated before I paid my $1.40! Gets stuck on certain screens, you can’t delete cities ok the main screen and so it’s pretty annoying to use. Off to search for a newer app that does the job. It’s a shame because it’s pretty! ### 2/5 — Just want an alarm *2018-07-11, version 1.3.3* Nice app. Would be nice if it didn’t need to update my calendar and add an event every time I want an alarm. ### 2/5 — Still works, but... *2017-12-03, version 1.3.3* This is a great app, but it hasn’t been updated in over a year, which is an eternity in App Store time. No updated support for iOS 11 or updated UI/UIX for iPhone X. This is an app that’s lived on my home screen since it was released, but I’m disappointed it seems to have been abandoned. I’d love to see this app refreshed for the latest generation of devices. ### 2/5 — Change color scheme *2014-12-25, version 1.3* Not a bad app but the color scheme is HORRIBLE. Please allow the user to change themes/colors so the text is actually legible. "The World Clock" is still the best app in this class. Removing a star because this still hasn't been fixed and it's been months. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Pls update this beautiful app: *2023-07-09* I love this app, and still use it. It would be great to see it work on a modern iPhone. Thanks :) ### 5/5 — I love this app! Please update it! *2022-11-24, version 1.3.3* I really like the functionality and look of this app. It just needs a little update! Thank you! ### 5/5 — Great App *2018-12-06* This is a great App, that is also visually appealing. It’s extremely easy to “drive” and navigate. ### 5/5 — Amazing app for those who travel! *2018-07-12, version 1.3.3* I love tracking time for multiple locations in one view. I especially love how you can long press and see what time it will be(at another location) against your local time. ### 5/5 — Beautiful app *2018-05-21, version 1.3.3* This is a beautiful app and I’ve had it since it first came out. Very nice design and interface. I do hope that the developer continues to update and maintain it because there is nothing in the App Store nicer looking than this for time zones and travel. Maybe even add a widget or Apple Watch support in the future and that would be fantastic. ### 5/5 — Great really handy - needs a widget *2016-09-24* Would love to see a widget added to be able to access the time zone info at a glance. ### 5/5 — Helps my long distance relationship so much *2016-08-18* I can't thank you enough for this amazing app. Incredibly designed. People, pay a few dollars and get an amazing quality app. ### 5/5 — Very nice *2016-06-08* Nicely designed, great for anyone who schedules meetings across timezones. ### 5/5 — Beautiful, clever app for time zones *2016-04-17, version 1.3.2* It's one of those apps with lots of nice little details. One of my favorite features: long-press, then drag your finger left and right to skip forward in time to see how each time zone changes at specific hours. ### 5/5 — Very Useful & Fun *2016-03-29, version 1.3.2* The time feature is very nice and the weather feature works great. The cities are not stock. You can search for any city. Very generous of this developer. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
