The World Clock is the most powerful application in its class with time converter, network time synchronization, alarm clock and notifications functionality, more than 197 000 populated places from more than 230 countries around the world, comprehensive information on daylight savings time transitions and more.
The World Clocks uses precise astronomical algorithms to calculate the day/night image. Also, The World Clocks provides network time synchronization. If you compare several iPads or iPhones, connected to the network and running side by side, their World Clocks will "Tick" simultaneously.
