Similarly to timers, the stopwatch has a resize button that simplifies the interface by changing the background and hiding the lap values. A flag button allows the user to record lap times and a share button allows users to share times with other UWP apps. They cannot be reset from the notifications. Timers provide notifications when they end. Arrow navigation buttons allow users to switch between timers in this view. The zoom button on a timer replaces the background with the Windows accent colors, hides other timers and the ribbon, and enlarges the time shown. Multiple timers can be set to run simultaneously. It is possible to reset or delete a timer. Timers can be created and named by clicking the plus button at the bottom, like alarms however, there is no way to edit a timer. Users who would simply like a window with an easily visible clock can type timedate.cpl in the Run dialog box ( ⊞ Win+ R).
When the map is minimized horizontally, the times are shown in a vertical list below the map instead of on it. It is also possible to compare what nonlocal times will be at a specified local time. When other times are displayed, the World Clock feature calculates how far ahead or behind the other times are from the user's local time. Users can search for additional locations to show on the map. The world clock list detects the user's location and shows the local time on the user's location on a world map. Prior to the Windows 10 Creators Update, Alarms & Clock (as it was called at the time) was the only app that could make an alarm notification appear during quiet hours, but third-party alarms running on Windows 10 version 1704 or later also ring during quiet hours by default. In order for an alarm to ring on a PC that is off, InstantGo must be included in the device. Due to hardware limitations, alarms cannot always appear on certain devices that are powered off. The current list of sounds in the order listed is Chimes, Xylophone, Chords, Tap, Jingle, Transition, Descending, Bounce, Echo, and Ascending.Īlarms are triggered by a special type of toast notification for alarms. It is possible to change the time, name, recurrence by day of the week, sound, and snooze time. It is possible to delete a selection of alarms simultaneously by clicking on the list button and using the control key with or without the shift key to select alarms.Īlarms can be created by clicking the plus button and edited by clicking or tapping on them. The alarms are listed vertically by the time of day and can be activated or deactivated with an ovular on/off switch. Windows Clock is distinct from the Windows taskbar's clock, which has been part of Windows since 1995. The latest version of the app uses the Universal Windows Platform APIs and adopts Windows UI theme (dark or light). Tiles for alarms, timers, and the stopwatch can be pinned to the Start menu. Windows Clock was available on mobile devices for over a decade before it was available on PCs with the introduction of Windows 8.1.
The app is similar in functionality and design to the Clock app on iOS. Windows Clock (known as Clock & Alarms on Pocket PC 2000, Alarms on Windows 8.1, and, until July 2022, Alarms & Clock on Windows 10) is a time management app for Microsoft Windows, with five key features: alarms, world clocks, timers, a stopwatch, and focus sessions.

If you need to add a clock for a city but it is not large enough, please add a clock for a larger nearby city instead (which is usually in same timezone of your city), then rename the clock to the name of your city. We do not have all cities in the world in this app's installation, instead we only install cities that are either the capital of a country or have a population of at least 100k. Because of this limitation, World Clock can not always show accurate real time. Why? Third party app is only allowed to update its tiles at most once every 30 minutes in background. Digital Clock on live tiles show approximate time that is within in 15 minutes of the real time. This special clock arm tells you which 30 minutes time range that clock is in. Analog Clock on live tiles have a special hour arm that points to a time range instead of a single time. Call family and friends at right time without leaving the app (support using calling card) Find time for planning multi-locations meetings Track time for up to 5 cities for free around the world with pinned clock tiles World Clock helps you tracking time around the world easily with live tiles, and talk to people there when it's right time. Travel a lot around the world? Have family living in another country? Want to keep touch with friends without waking them up in the middle of night?
