The city is the hand. London at 4 o'clock means it's 4 PM there. Tokyo at 10 means 10 AM. City names replace clock hands on a single dial. They move in real time, just like hands would. White center = daytime. Dark outer ring = nighttime. One glance tells you the time in every city and who's awake right now. No lists. No math. No switching between clocks. Pick up to 8 cities. That's it. Built for remote teams, frequent travelers, and anyone tired of googling "what time is it in Dubai." Apple Watch, iPhone, iPad, Mac. No account. Works offline.

About

A Small Clock

Read full description

A quiet analog clock for iPhone and iPad, inspired by the clear faces and compact proportions of vintage travel clocks. Add A Small Clock to your Home Screen and resize the same widget from one clock in Small to two in Medium, four in Large, and six in extra-large portrait on iOS 27. Choose independent time zones and colors for each clock. Local time can appear without a place label; selected cities appear on their dials. My colors uses your saved app palette, and companion clocks can follow the first clock or use their own palette. The small widget supports StandBy on compatible iPhones. The app adapts to portrait and landscape and to light and dark appearance. iOS controls widget timing and appearance; timeline refresh is best effort, and a guaranteed one-second widget or StandBy cadence is not promised. A Small Clock is free, works offline, and has no ads, accounts, tracking or in-app purchases. It is a clock app with no alarm feature.
