Summertime tells you exactly when the clocks change — where you are, and anywhere else you care about. Most of the world moves its clocks twice a year, but almost nowhere does it on the same day. Summertime shows you when your next change happens, what it does to the hour, and what it costs you in sleep. AT A GLANCE • A live countdown to the next switch, in days, hours, minutes and seconds • A clock dial that draws the jump itself, so you can see the hour appear or disappear • The time zone you are on now and since when, and the one you move to and from when • The rhythm of the years ahead: every change after the next one EVERY TIME ZONE ON EARTH • Search by city, country, region or GMT offset • Type EU, UK or USA to see just those countries • Keep the places that matter to you and swipe between them • Flags and country names, so you always know where you are looking NEVER BE CAUGHT OUT • Add the changes to your calendar for years ahead — an entry the evening before, and a note the morning after explaining the hour you lost or gained • Or take a notification the evening before instead • Share a picture of the change with anyone who needs to know ON YOUR HOME SCREEN • Widgets in every size, each configurable to any time zone • The next change, its date and the countdown, without opening the app BUILT PROPERLY • iPhone and iPad, with the full list beside the detail on iPad • Complete VoiceOver support • Dynamic Type all the way to the largest accessibility sizes • 34 languages • No account, no tracking, no ads

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Earth at Free against Summertime's $0.99. Earth also leads on iOS requirement (17.0 vs 26.0). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
