Current time around the world
This free world clock lists live local times for 33,000+ cities across 240+ countries. Each card shows the city name, country, exact local time, calendar date, UTC offset, timezone abbreviation, and IANA zone ID so you can schedule with confidence.
Search any city or country, switch between 12-hour and 24-hour clocks, sort by population or offset, and use table view when you need a dense worldwide scan.
Why this world clock has more useful data
Most world clocks only highlight a short list of capitals. edttocst includes the full GeoNames cities dataset (population 15,000+), day/night cues, 12/24-hour format, favorites on your device, and links into our converters for exact meeting math.
Times update every second in your browser using standard timezone data — no refresh required. Daylight saving changes are applied automatically through each city’s IANA timezone.
World clock FAQ
What is a world clock?
A world clock displays the current local time across multiple cities and time zones at the same moment, usually relative to UTC.
Is this better than a single timezone converter?
Use the world clock to scan many places quickly. Use a converter page when you need a precise meeting planner, full-day chart, or EDT/CST-style calculation.
Do these clocks adjust for DST?
Yes. Browser timezone support applies daylight saving and regional rules for each IANA zone.
Can I save cities I check often?
Tap the star on any city card. Favorites stay in your browser, and you can toggle “Favorites only” to focus on them.
