Clocks with names, not just cities
Add a clock for a city or a person — “Mum in Sydney,” “Design team, Berlin” — with a custom name, emoji, and color tag so it’s readable at a glance.
World clock · iPhone, iPad + Apple Watch
Every time zone.
One glance.
Tempus is the world clock for people who work, travel, and stay close to the people they love — named clocks, instant conversion, and a meeting finder that actually finds the meeting.

Why Tempus
Built for people juggling time zones, not tourists checking one.
Convert instantly
Pick any time in any zone and every clock updates together. Drag the time scrubber to slide through the day and see who’s awake.
Find a meeting that actually works
Set working hours per clock and Tempus shows the overlap. Add it to your calendar in one tap or share an .ics invite.
Private by design
No account, no ads, no tracking. Your clocks live on your device and in your own private iCloud database.
See how it works
01 · Meeting Finder
Find the window that works for everyone
Select two or more clocks, set working hours for each, and Tempus highlights the overlap. Tap a slot to add it to your calendar or export it as an .ics invite.
02 · Time Converter
Drag once, see every zone move
Pick a time in any clock and every other clock updates with it. Drag the scrubber to slide through the day; day/night dots show who’s awake.
03 · City Detail
A place, not just an offset
Tap any clock for a full city view — a skyline that shifts with the time of day, sunrise and sunset, and current conditions from Apple Weather.
04 · Apple Watch
Time on your wrist
Tempus on Apple Watch shows your clocks, converts with the Digital Crown, and offers complications for your favorite cities. Clocks sync instantly between iPhone and Watch.
Home Screen widgets and iCloud keep every device in sync.
05 · Profiles
New in 1.3
A list for work, another for family
Group your clocks into named profiles — Work, Family, a Trip — and switch from the title menu on iPhone or the sidebar on iPad. Choose Find Meeting Time for a profile to open its cities in the Meeting Finder. Apple Watch shows the profile you picked.
New in Tempus 1.3 on iPhone, iPad and Apple Watch.
Privacy first
No accounts. No ads. No tracking.
Tempus doesn’t know who you are and doesn’t want to. Your clocks are stored on your device and, if you turn on iCloud, in your own private iCloud database — never on our servers, because we don’t have any. Weather comes from Apple Weather for the cities you add, never for your location.

More room for every time zone.
Tempus is a native iPad app, not a stretched-up phone screen. Your clocks sit in a sidebar and stay there while City Detail — skyline, weather, sunrise and sunset — fills the pane beside them. Time Converter and Meeting Finder open in that same detail column, so a full day of overlap finally has the width it needs. Portrait or landscape, iPad Pro or iPad mini, the split holds its shape and your selection stays put.
- Clocks in a sidebar with City Detail open beside them — you no longer lose the list to look at one city.
- Time Converter and Meeting Finder run in the detail column, with a full-width overlap timeline.
- iPad toolbars in place of the floating controls, plus menu commands and keyboard shortcuts.
- Pointer hover highlights rows and cards, and Manual sort lets you drag the sidebar into order.

Profiles
Group your clocks into named sets such as Work, Family or a trip, and switch between them from the title on iPhone or the sidebar on iPad. A city can be in several profiles, and deleting a profile keeps its cities.
Meet across a profile
Choose Find Meeting Time on a profile and its cities open in the Meeting Finder, ready to find the overlap.
In step on Apple Watch
The watch shows the profile you picked, and clocks added, edited or removed on another device reach it right away. Settings also save and sync more reliably across your devices.

Questions
How do I add a clock?
Tap + on the clock list, search for a city, then optionally give it a custom name, emoji and color.
How do I convert a time?
Open Convert, choose a source clock and time, or drag the scrubber. All your clocks update together.
How does the Meeting Finder work?
Pick two or more clocks, set working hours for each, and Tempus shows the windows where everyone is available. Tap a slot to add it to your calendar or share an .ics invite.
What are profiles?
Profiles are named sets of your clocks, such as Work or Family. Tap the title on iPhone, or use the sidebar on iPad, to switch between a profile and All; Manage Profiles creates and edits them. A city can be in several profiles, and deleting a profile keeps its cities. Profiles are new in Tempus 1.3.
Why don't I see weather?
Weather is optional. Turn it on in Settings › Weather. It needs an internet connection and is provided by Apple Weather for the cities you added, never for your location.
My clocks are not syncing to my Apple Watch.
Make sure both devices are signed into the same iCloud account and that the watch app is installed. Opening Tempus on the iPhone triggers an immediate sync to the watch.
Can I use Tempus on iPad or Mac?
iPad, yes — Tempus is a native iPad app with a clock sidebar, City Detail beside it, keyboard shortcuts and pointer support. There is no separate Mac app.
