Better Clock is just like the Clock app, just better. We decided to build this app when one of our friends went on a trip to Bali, and we couldn't add "Bali" as a location on the default clock app. Unfortunately we're not experts on Indonesian geography (and Bali is not in the same timezone as Jakarta sadly) so we built our own Clock App! Why build another clock app? We already covered this, but the main reason is we wanted to be able to add any city, instead of picking from a surprisingly limited list. What's different about this one? We figured we might as well build some extra features, so here is what we came up with: • City search: This is the main feature here, you can search for any city, and we'll likely find it along with the correct timezone. Courtesy of your friends at Pin Traveler. • Labels: We have a lot of friends all over the globe, and it's just more pleasant looking at the time for "Mom" rather than the time for "Istanbul" • Time Search: Sometimes mental math is just hard. So we built a feature where you can manually enter a time for a location, and we show you what that corresponds to everywhere else! • It's free! Yes developers need to be compensated for their work, but I think we can all agree that you shouldn't be paying a subscription to see the time on your thousand dollar phone. Why should I download this? If you're here you obviously know the default clock app is just not good enough for 2024. Our app isn't the flashiest, or the most feature rich, but we built it to be useful. Why not give it a try? It'll take 30 seconds of your time
