TimeAtlas makes it effortless to see what time it is anywhere in the world — right now or hours from now. Add cities from around the globe and watch their clocks tick in real time, side by side. Each city card shows the current time, how far ahead or behind it is from you, and whether it's today, tomorrow, or yesterday there. A sunrise or sunset icon tells you at a glance whether the sun is up, going down, or long gone — calculated from real astronomical data, not rough estimates. The interactive timeline at the bottom is the heart of the app. Drag it forward or back to explore what time it will be across all your saved cities at any moment in the next 24 hours. Planning a call across three continents? Slide the timeline until the hours line up, and you'll see every city update instantly. KEY FEATURES - Real-time world clock with unlimited saved cities - Interactive 24-hour timeline — scrub to any moment and see all clocks update - Sunrise and sunset indicators based on precise solar calculations for each location - Relative time differences displayed in hours and minutes - Day labels: Today, Tomorrow, Yesterday, or the day name - Automatic location detection for your home city - 24-hour or 12-hour time format - Show or hide timezone abbreviations - Rename any city to a custom label (e.g., "London" to "HQ Office") - Drag-and-drop to reorder your cities - Swipe to edit or remove a city - Clean, dark interface designed for quick glances Whether you're coordinating with a distributed team, keeping tabs on family abroad, or planning your next trip, TimeAtlas gives you the context you need in seconds.
