TimeTable is the easiest way to convert between two time zones. By comparing the two side by side it is incredibly easy to get a quick conversion from one to the other. No need to plug in or think about specific times, simply scroll up and down to find the ones you need. Great for converting blocks of time, like "11am-3pm EST to GMT", or "11:00-16:00 Zulu to CST." Staggered Day mode allows you to view the day/night cycle of both zones relative to each other. Toggle between 12 and 24 hour mode to grab your local time in 24 hour format. * Custom time offsets (Want to see the local time 1h25m from now? No problem!) * 12/24h toggle (View the local or destination time zone in either format) * Favorites (Always jumping between zones? EST 12h -> 24h? PST 12h -> GMT 24h? Add to your favorites for easy access) * Local time: have the current local time highlighted on the chart regardless of zone * Highly customizable! (5 themes with more to come, change row stagger mode, day stagger mode, etc) * Fast, easy to read at a glance * Expansion view (Zoom in on a certain hour to view with more detail, good for strange offsets like GMT-4:30) I originally built this app with pilots in mind. As a private pilot I found myself often needing to convert blocks of time from my local zone to Zulu 24h for weather briefings and general flight planning. Rather than having to select individual times and convert them one by one, the table method allowed me to gain a familiarity with the new zone as if it were my own. No need to think about the conversion, 12h to 24h, etc, simply look at the chart and it was there. I have since found the app to be useful outside of aviation and it was become my preferred way to view "time" as a whole, be it traveling or simply wondering what time it was somewhere! I hope you too find TimeTable to be a fun and useful tool.

PilotGuard brings the FAA's Flight Risk Assessment Tool (FRAT) and PAVE framework to your iPhone and iPad — so every flight starts with a clear, structured go/no-go decision. HOW IT WORKS Enter your departure and arrival airports plus your estimated time of departure. PilotGuard instantly fetches live METAR and TAF data from NOAA and pre-fills your weather questions automatically. Answer the remaining questions across the four PAVE categories — Pilot, Aircraft, enVironment, and External Pressures — and get a risk score in seconds. LIVE WEATHER, BUILT IN No manual lookups. PilotGuard pulls real-time METAR and TAF for both your departure and arrival airports and maps the conditions directly to your assessment. Departure weather, en-route forecast, winds, and time of flight are all pre-filled based on what's actually happening outside. PERSONAL MINIMUMS Set your own limits — maximum crosswind, headwind, and tailwind, minimum runway length, VFR ceiling and visibility, and fuel reserves. PilotGuard checks every flight against your minimums and flags violations clearly in your results, so you're always flying within your personal envelope. RUNWAY ANALYSIS Select your departure and arrival runways and PilotGuard calculates the exact crosswind and tailwind components based on current winds — not just total wind speed. Includes density altitude so you know what your aircraft is actually performing against. FAA-SOURCED RISK MITIGATIONS When any PAVE category scores Moderate or High, PilotGuard surfaces FAA-sourced antidotes specific to that risk area — practical mitigations, not generic advice. FLIGHT HISTORY Every completed assessment is saved to your history. Review past flights, see how conditions compared to your minimums, and track your risk trends over time. BUILT FOR GENERAL AVIATION PILOTS PilotGuard is designed for student pilots building decision-making habits and experienced pilots who want a structured pre-flight discipline. It follows the same 18-question FRAT methodology recommended by the FAA, organized across the four PAVE categories. No account required. No subscription. Your data stays on your device.
