Stop Time-Zone Math with World Clock

If your team spans São Paulo, Berlin, or US (or anywhere actually), you do time-zone math a dozen times a day, and sometimes you get it wrong. The World Clock widget keeps up to five cities on screen next to your monitor, each labeled "3h ahead" or "2h behind", so the answer is just there.

World Clock is a widget in StandBy Mode Pro that keeps up to five time zones on screen while your phone charges on a stand.

Set up World Clock cities in two minutes

In the widget's Cities tab, add up to five entries. Each city gets a display name of your choosing (name them after teammates, like "Ana · Lisbon", instead of capitals if that's how you think), a timezone from the searchable picker, and optionally a custom image.

Alongside each city you'll see the offset relative to home: ahead, behind, or same time. A world map with a live day/night line shows who is in daylight and who is asleep before you even read the numbers.

Customize the World Clock widget

The Fonts tab styles the primary time and secondary info independently. In Options, the AMOLED mode (Premium) turns the background fully off in idle. That's ideal if the phone sits beside you all workday on an OLED screen. There's also a Duo variant, so World Clock can share the screen with your Schedule or a Pomodoro timer.

Who should use World Clock?

Remote workers with distributed teammates, freelancers with overseas clients, families spread across continents, and anyone who has ever pinged a colleague at 6 a.m. their time by accident. Five labeled clocks beat one mental spreadsheet. New to the app? Our guide to StandBy Mode on Android covers everything else the app can do.

Retire the time-zone math before your next call. StandBy Mode Pro is free on Google Play.
