reviews
- “Incorrect time Zones — Have found that app won’t accurately know time zones. Such as it has Montana on CST which is incorrect.”
- “This is a practical app, but... — I like this app, but I noticed one of the clocks is wrong. The clock for Puerto Rico has the wrong time.”
- “GIVES WRONG TIME?!! — Isn't the whole purpose of this app to give the correct time in different time zones?”
Non-standard or confusing city abbreviations
Users criticize the use of non-standard, unclear, or inconsistent city codes (e.g., WHC for Washington DC, CCG for Chicago), making the app difficult to trust or use effectively.

reviews
- “Bizarre abbreviations — Would be a great app, but truly bizarre abbreviations. HNU for Honolulu? CCG for Chicago?”
- “City identifiers not correct — As a pilot the 3 letter city codes need to be correct. Cannot identify cities with incorrect identifiers.”
- “Weird names — Like others have stated, this app uses some weird city abbreviations.”
Limited number of time zones (only 5 allowed)
Several users express frustration that the app restricts them to only five time zones, which is insufficient for frequent travelers or global business users.

reviews
- “One Option Only — I need only one time. The widget gives me only one option to display itself...”
- “Great UI but needs more time zones — As a frequent traveler... having just 5 time zones makes this app essentially useless.”
- “As far as it goes — Good -- as far as it goes. The app only allows me to add five time zones? Five??? Useless”
Poor widget usability and design flaws
Issues include tiny fonts, lack of AM/PM display, unreadable analog clock faces, and poor layout that crowds out other widgets.

reviews
- “Great but font is tiny — This is a great app and does what it says but even on my massive iPhone 7 Plus, the font is tiny and hard to read.”
- “Widget not showing AM or PM with black background — With black background it could be early AM or late PM, but widget does not display AM or PM.”
- “Nasty clock faces — Why did you mess up the analogue clock faces? They look like crap now and are harder to read!”
App not updated or abandoned
Users believe the app is no longer maintained, citing lack of updates for years and absence of support for older iOS versions like iOS 14.
4
reviews

- “Needs Updating — No longer works, now that IOS18 is used.”
- “No longer working — With latest ios, cannot create widget”
Confusing navigation and setup process
Users struggle to navigate the app, get stuck on initial setup screens, or find instructions inadequate and outdated.

- “Hard to install Widget — Instruction is inadequate and confusing. UNINTALLED!!!”
- “Hard to use — It should be easy to use this app to find times in different zones for specific dates, but it's not”
Frequent or intrusive prompts
