A world clock that lets you feel the time elsewhere, not just calculate it. Elsewhere shows the cities you care about through beautiful, atmospheric scenes that shift with the local time, the weather, and the seasons. Morning light, evening skies, quiet nights, a sudden thunderstorm. Every city has a sense of place, and you can see it at a glance. Whether you're calling family abroad, working across time zones, planning a trip, or simply wondering what the world feels like right now, Elsewhere makes distant places feel a little closer. WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Live weather in every city. Real rain streaks, snow drifts, fog, and lightning — powered by Apple Weather. • Original art for every city, hand-tuned across morning, midday, dusk, and night. • Share a Moment: export a postcard from any city, with a one-line phrase written for that exact place and time. • Beautiful even when you're offline. Search and time zones work without a connection — perfect for flights. • No ads. No tracking. No location permission required. BUILT FOR EVERY KIND OF TRAVELER • Remote workers coordinating across time zones • Families and friends scattered across continents • Travelers planning their next trip, or remembering their last • Anyone who finds the idea of "what time is it in Tokyo right now" quietly magical Tap a city to expand it into a full-screen scene showing the current weather and local time. Reorder, swap your home city, and choose between art styles per city. Available in English, Portuguese, Spanish, French, Italian, German, Greek, Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Arabic.
