And multiple timezones can be added to the view. It would be nice if the user could customize how the times are formatted when copied to email. The current format lists the cities without displaying the timezone. I would rather hide the city name and display the timezone at the end of the entry. ### 3/5 — Time for an update *2023-11-06, version 4.1.0* Time for an update ### 5/5 — Well *2023-06-05, version 4.1.0* 100 ### 5/5 — Best Time Zone App *2023-04-24, version 4.1.0* Love this timezone app, As I work internationally it’s perfect for checking multiple time zones, very easy to use. Highly Recommend. ### 5/5 — Really cool tool *2023-03-06* I work in different time zones. I need to schedule appointments across eastern and Pacific standard time as well as Europe. This tool makes coordinating schedules very easy. ### 5/5 — Great app. *2023-02-19, version 4.1.0* Love signal function apps like this that are so well done. ### 5/5 — Love it *2022-11-28, version 4.1.0* This is a great app. Does exactly what I need it to, and is a clear and easy to use! ### 3/5 — Loses all data *2022-11-14, version 4.1.0* Every few weeks the app dumps all data and I have to re-enter it all over again. ### 4/5 — Great app but *2022-10-31* The app works great and flawlessly except that if your using an iPad with display zoom - show more space, the app’s Home Screen widget’s font aren’t correctly showing as the fonts are uneven. ### 5/5 — Totally Awesome and well thought out! *2022-09-08* What’s great is that one can slide whatever time to determine the other zone times. And it also has sunrise and sunset times. Now that’s cool ### 5/5 — Excellent little time zone converter *2022-07-29, version 4.1.0* This is an excellent time zone converter. It’s easy to use, provides just the important information without clutter and can be easily customised. For the price of a cup of coffee, planning discussions with people in different time zones will be much easier because of this app. Highly recommended. ### 5/5 — Zones App by TOM Izard *2022-05-12* Clumsy App. You can’t rename a local time zone. I entered name of city and state and tried both options (reset name and Done) but neither saved new name. I tried to go to support page and hit a dead end web page. The app does provide times in all zones I requested and you can change sizes of text boxes, but it would be nice if you could rearrange them or put in a list. ### 5/5 — Best clock app around *2022-01-25, version 4.1.0* Seriously awesome ### 5/5 — Great app *2022-01-20, version 4.1.0* Ok what I needed it has. ### 5/5 — Perfect *2021-12-12, version 4.1.0* Works and looks good -- which you can't say about most apps. ### 3/5 — Works well sum flaws and bug *2021-11-30, version 4.1.0* The get help button doesn’t work and no where to submit feedback because there’s a flaw when editing time where keyboard will block the view… ### 5/5 — Dependable-love it! *2021-11-15, version 4.1.0* It’s great and it’s free ### 5/5 — Reduced my stress *2021-11-09* This app is fantastic. So easy to use and helps me to make sure that I am not missing meetings in the future because of Time conversion errors. Particularly with changing daylight savings times around the world ### 4/5 — Zones App *2021-08-17, version 4.1.0* This app is faster than my math for - or + 7 or more time zones. Or I do the math but want to MAKE SURE I Am right. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Often incorrect *2022-05-28, version 4.1.0* Often incorrect due to inability to automatically figure out daylight savings on/off in various countries- hence nearly useless ### 1/5 — What happened in recent update?? *2020-09-24, version 4.0.0* I’ve used this app for years but since I last opened it it has a whole new look and all my saved cities have been deleted. When I try to add them in again I can’t find Vancouver Canada?!? The only Vancouver available is the one in the USA with a population of 0.1% compared to the Canadian city! I’m used to things being USA centric but not being to find an international major Canadian city is not cool. Will have to find another app if it’s not fixed. ### 1/5 — GMT not an option as a zone *2020-09-16, version 4.0.0* New version does not provide GMT as a zone. New update flushed my previous configuration & downgrades me until I restored purchase. Old version better. ### 1/5 — Upgrade to newest version... Nag screens are intrusive *2020-09-11, version 4.0.0* I was happy with the last version, had no issues whatsoever with the app. New version? I’ll delete it when I am done with this rating. Buh -Bye. ### 1/5 — Limited to 3 zones without subscription *2019-03-10, version 3.0.0* Seems ok I guess, but you have to buy the pro version if you want more than 3 zones. This is really Zones LIGHT. Misleading imho. ### 1/5 — What happened? *2018-05-13, version 2.1.2* I am unable to remove cities I don’t want from my list. I could do that before. Now, the app has been updated to iOS 11 and lost most of the functionality I bought it for in the first place. I have un/reinstalled several times, all to no avail. #sucks ### 1/5 — So few cities. *2017-11-29* Madison Wisconsin, the capital of Wisconsin, is not there. If I had time I would check for the capitals of all the states in the US, as a minimum.I have an old time zone program that has all the cities that I'm interested in. ### 1/5 — Hawaii? *2016-08-17, version 1.2.2* No search results for Hawaii. And when you search by USA and scroll to look, app crashes. ### 2/5 — Only works on 1 device *2019-05-16* The free version is still useful, but the 3-zone limit appears to be restricted to a single device. It works on my iPad, but I can't add any zones to my iPhone. Also, the support links are not working. **Developer response:** Hi there, On your iPhone, you should be able to visit the settings menu and restore your purchase - that single in-app purchase will work across as many devices as you like. Unfortunately, it's not an automatic process.f ### 2/5 — No Daylight Savings Support *2019-04-06, version 3.0.0* Cannot accurately predict future times from overseas time zones back to EST. Specifically, Sydney to NYC does not work accurately. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — TIME IS PRECIOUS *2025-01-10* I was looking for something that was easy, fast, and simple: and this app does it all. This app enables one to immediately convert local time to other time zones when you want to plan out future contact times for phone calls, meetings, etc. This app is so much better than the World Clock App because of its flexibility. ### 5/5 — Awesome app *2024-10-14, version 4.1.0* The best app ever to compare time zones and timeshift! ### 5/5 — Best time zone app! *2024-09-09* Best time zone app! Easy to use, simple to read at a glance. Thank you! ### 5/5 — It’s better then one of my other time zone apps *2024-07-19* Granted my other app has one city that doesn’t give you the right time so far that’s one city more than what I found on this app ### 5/5 — Very useful *2024-03-19, version 4.1.0* If you’re planning a holiday in different countries then this is the app for you. Extremely useful app. A few quirky bugs but overall excellent. ### 5/5 — Still great in 2024 *2024-01-19* Downloaded a few of these looking around trying to find one that’s not shady with data as well as not hammering me with adds and pay walls. This is the go to and the upgrade is a one time buy of like 3 bucks, but honestly they give you everything you need for free it’s a great app. ### 5/5 — Beautifully designed app with great free version *2023-12-31, version 4.1.0* Even though the free version was more than enough for my use, I just purchased the full version to support the developer. The app is beautiful and I would say a lot of time and effort has gone in to its design. I think what sets it apart, is it is super functional and does what you want very well. Highly recommend a download and purchase if you can 👍. ### 5/5 — Love this app! *2023-11-19* I use it to decide when to schedule calls with relatives and friends around the world 🌎 👏🏼 ### 5/5 — Zones App *2023-09-25* This app is faster than my math for - or + 7 or more time zones. Or I do the math but want to MAKE SURE I Am right. ### 5/5 — Very useful *2023-08-22* So simple yet so useful. Easy to pick any date/time in any time zone then see it in other zones. Can’t believe big players like Google , Apple, etc. can’t come up with something like this for their calendar apps in today’s globalized world. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
