Time Converter provides an easy conversion of time between any two standard timezones.

Ever wondered ...

* What the local time would be in say, San Jose, CA or Sydney, Australia when it is 10 pm at your place?

* If you call a friend in Chicago, USA or Madrid, Spain tomorrow at 6 am your local time, will it be an odd time for your friend to receive the call?

or Want to know ...

* when a Wimbledon tournament at London scheduled for mm/dd/yyyy; hh:mm will be telecast on your local television?

* when a corporate virtual conference scheduled at US pacific time on mm/dd/yyyy, hh:mm will be open for you to join via the web?

or A more aggressive question ...

* if it is 11:45 am in New York, what time is it in Tokyo?

* if it is 3 pm in Cairo what time is it in Kathmandu?

Time Converter provides a quick answer to these queries. The time is displayed in both Analog and Digital formats along with the date and zone information.

What's new

This latest version of two-zone Time Converter is a completely re-developed app with a new, intuitive user interface providing absolutely correct time conversions between several cities in the world. Unlike the earlier version, the time zone selection is now based on the real city names rather than the GMT +/- selections. All time computations are done with great precision taking into consideration DST rules at both cities. The app has been thoroughly tested even for the conditions during which the DST transitions are taking place. During the time when the DST is applied, the app will automatically advance the clock by one hour if you try to set the time that does not exist in the concerned city's calendar. For example, trying to set Chicago clock to 2:15 am on 14th March 2010 will set the clock to 3:15 am. Likewise, when the DST ends, the clocks lose one hour. When you set the time in this range, its effect on the other city's time depends on whether the first city is in DST or not. This is clearly indicated by a message displayed next to the clock.

When you use this time converter, you will never need to refer to Internet or any other app for converting time between two cities in the world.

Important features of this major upgrade:

1. Totally new UI that is more intuitive and user friendly.

2. The time zone selection now based on real city names instead of GMT +/- based time zones.

3. An exhaustive list of 400+ cities with automatic and accurate Day Light Saving (DST) adjustments.

4. Both city and time selections are saved and applied when the app is reopened.

Important Note: Time computations are usually complex because of different DST rules applied in this world. If you are not able to interpret the time conversion results produced by the app, do write to us at support@abcom.com and we will gladly provide the explanation.
