### 4/5 — Ads great otherwise

*2026-04-07*

I use this app all the time and recommend it to people. I just updated it. April 7, 2026. And now there are ads at the bottom of the app, which is just absolutely terrible. I would pay a nominal fee, not to have the ads.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback. The latest version now includes optional Ad-Free monthly and annual plans under Settings → Ad-Free. We appreciate you encouraging us to add this option.

### 5/5 — Great for setting up international meetings

*2024-11-25*

Trying to figure out a suitable meeting time with international clients gets annoying when you have to calculate backwards for all the different time options. 

Using the slider to move the time and reflect in all time zones is great to plan options for everyone. 

Clean and simple app. No ads. I'm shocked that it's free.

### 5/5 — Awesome App

*2024-11-13*

Thank You 😊 so much a simple and effective app. It will be great if u can add interactive widget as well similar to how to it works in crome extension

### 5/5 — Excellent time zone app

*2024-10-02, version 1.1.4*

A clean and simple layout, allowing the comparison of the time and daylight position from the perspective of any location. Ad free, and free of unrealistic subscription costs: it would be worthy of a single-payment, premium option price for additional functionality.

### 5/5 — THE absolute best time zone app

*2024-06-28*

I’ve tried them all, and it’s not even close.

### 5/5 — The best out there

*2024-05-14, version 1.1.4*

This app not only doesn’t have ads but also has very clean interface. Job well done!

### 5/5 — The best time zone app by far

*2024-05-07*

This is the best time zone app with the sliding scales, color coding of daylight hours, and multiple side by side comparison. I refer everyone to this and use it every day for work!

**Developer response:** Thank you for using Savvy Time every day and recommending it to others. We’re especially glad the slider, daylight-hour colors, and side-by-side comparisons make your work easier.

### 5/5 — Check time instantly

*2024-03-08, version 1.1.4*

I appreciate how this program facilitates the easy checking of time across various time zones, enabling seamless scheduling of future meetings across different regions. It simplifies the process of coordinating meetings by providing instant access to time differences, thereby enhancing efficiency and coordination across multiple time zones.

### 5/5 — Amazing App!

*2024-03-02*

I live this app!  It's super simple and does what I need. Easily configurable and easy to use.

### 5/5 — Time zone calculator

*2024-02-28*

Works great to let you know what time it is in other parts of the world

### 5/5 — Relationship Saver!

*2024-02-01*

Now when I work with my freelancers half way around the world  I can quickly know where my pings land in their work window.

### 1/5 — Update to Pro? For time zone awareness, don’t think so. Deleted!

*2026-09-23*

Was good but def not worth paying for Pro? Seriously?

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback, and I'm sorry the update was frustrating. Converting and comparing times across cities, the time slider and home-screen widgets are still free. Pro is optional. It adds unlimited saved places, larger iOS Compare widgets and no ads. If you'd saved places before the update, you kept all of them. If you ever give Savvy Time another try, I'd love to hear what would make it work for you: savvytime.com.

### 1/5 — Can’t remove ads

*2026-07-14, version 1.2.3*

This Should be a 5 star review. Unfortunately annoying ads at the bottom of app. Most apps give you the option to pay a small fee to remove ads from appearing. Hopefully the app creator does this as it will be beneficial for them. Once they sort this i will change my rating to 5 star.

Just noticed the only 5 star reviews are from people saying no ads… so it looks like the app creator has recently enabled abs which is annoying. I get you need to make money but at least give users the option to pay a small fee to remove ads from being displayed.

### 1/5 — Why adding ads?!!!!

*2026-02-10*

Why????? Ads???? The only reason I was using it is because there was no Ads. Goodbye!

### 1/5 — Ads suck

*2026-01-14*

Ads are for losers

**Developer response:** We understand that ads aren’t for everyone. The latest version now offers optional Ad-Free monthly and annual plans under Settings → Ad-Free, while banner ads continue to support the free version.

### 1/5 — Stuck on BST

*2026-01-06, version 1.2.2*

Great app except its been stuck on BST. No setting to update it.

### 1/5 — Incorrect data

*2024-10-05*

I have loved your app and recommended for years, until today. Your PDT timezone was incorrect and so I missed an important meeting. Won’t be trusting this app again.

### 1/5 — Inaccurate

*2022-10-16*

Inaccurate time zones

**Developer response:** Sorry the time zones appeared inaccurate. We’ve substantially updated time-zone handling since version 1.1.4, and the latest version uses date-specific international time-zone rules. If you still see an error, please share the exact cities or time zones, date and time, and what was shown versus expected so we can investigate.

### 2/5 — Time is not always correct!

*2026-03-08*

It is currently 2045 hours (8:45pm) PST on Saturday March 7, 2026. Tomorrow, Sunday March 8 at 0200 hours (2am), California changes from PST to PDT and the clocks jump one hour ahead. Savvy time shows the current time in Taiwan, a country that’s currently 16 hours ahead of PST, as 1345 hours (1:45pm). Taiwan does not change their clocks between summer and winter. Since it’s currently 2045 hours PST in California, and Taiwan is 16 hours ahead of California, the time in Taiwan is 1245 hours (12:45pm) not 1345 (1:45pm). 1:45pm would be 17 hours ahead of PST. Savvy Time has miscalculated the time difference. Savvy Time wouldn’t even have been correct at the same time tomorrow after the clocks in California had changed!

### 3/5 — Has problems with summer/winter time changes

*2026-08-28*

Response to developer: I would include a screenshot, but my review was written months ago and even if I still had a screenshot there’s no way to upload images to reviews. I was looking at USA Pacific time and the time in Taiwan during the changeover from winter PST to summer DST. If I remember correctly, the time difference went from 16 hours (correct) to something like 18 hours instead of 15 hours. It was a long time ago!

[Was: Doesn’t accurately calculate times in foreign countries when USA changes from summer to winter times (and vice versa). EG. USA time changes at midnight, but it’s 11:00pm in USA. Time in another country might be inaccurate.]

**Developer response:** Thanks for clarifying—and you’re right that App Store reviews don’t support screenshot attachments. Your Pacific/Taiwan details helped us reproduce an older DST-boundary slider error, although our reproduction showed a one-hour drift rather than the exact 18-hour difference you recall. We’ve fixed that issue, and the current version verifies Taiwan as 16 hours ahead of PST and 15 hours ahead of PDT. Thanks for helping us track this down.

*2025-06-04*

This app has been incredibly helpful for my work, especially in scheduling meetings across different time zones with accurate and reliable information.

**Developer response:** Thanks! We’re glad Savvy Time is helping you schedule international meetings accurately and reliably. That work use case is central to what we’re building.

### 5/5 — Great app. Would give 10 stars if I could

*2025-05-31*

Has all the timezones you need. You can add all the ones you need and if you decide other timezones are more important it’s super easy to slide them around. No pop ups, just an app

### 5/5 — Just perfect!

*2025-04-16, version 1.1.4*

Simple and efficient design. Free and no ads. Can’t go wrong. Kudos to the devs.

### 5/5 — Great Time Conversion App

### 5/5 — Functional and easy to use

*2025-01-27, version 1.1.4*

Love this app. Easy to use.

### 5/5 — Suggestion

*2024-12-28*

Great intl time tool. There is space to allow for another region or two above the fold. Can you create a tool or option to tighten up the space to put more regions on the screen at once, vs scrolling.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the suggestion! To fit more places on screen, open Settings, tap Row Density and choose Compact.
