Track Multiple Time Zones in the Menu Bar With This Little App

MacOS: We still love Clocker , a clock with a free time zone for the menu bar. But if you have a lot of time zones to keep track of, you should also take a look at Menu World Time , another free world clock on the menu bar with a slightly different interface.

The World Time menu displays a day or night icon in the menu bar and an arrow to indicate whether another time zone is one day ahead of or behind your local time. (You can also display the day of the week.) But most importantly, its compact drop-down menu can display a long list of other time zones.

You can customize time zone labels, so instead of “Tokyo:”, “London:” and “Paris:” you can enter the names of remote employees on your team or friends who are far away. You can also sort the different hours manually, alphabetically or by the current time. If you spend a lot of time talking to people in the US or around the world, this is a handy way to keep track of everyone’s time of day.

Unlike Clocker, Menu World Time does not support calendars or reminders. If you don’t need these features, a simpler interface is a better option.
