What is the online clock?

The online clock shows the current time (hours, minutes, and seconds) right in your browser tab. You can switch between display styles such as digital, analog, and flip-style layouts.

By default it shows the time for your current location. To compare time across regions, use the world clock or open a city time page.

How do I use the online clock?

Choose a display style: digital, analog, or flip.
Use full-screen mode to show the clock during meetings or in a classroom (press Esc to exit).

You can also set an alarm, start a stopwatch, or run a timer when you need more than just the current time.

Embed

If you want to display an online clock on another website, you can use the embed section on this page to copy an iframe snippet. Choose a size, copy the code, and paste it into your site’s HTML or page builder.

Embedded clocks are great for dashboards, livestream overlays, and classroom pages where you want a shared reference time.

Clock settings

Customize the clock to match your setup:

Change the time zone.
Toggle dark mode and switch between 12-hour and 24-hour formats.
Show or hide seconds and the date.
Enable mirror mode for recording or reflective displays.
Show the day of week and week number.
Adjust the clock size for readability.

Your options are saved in your browser so they’ll be remembered next time.

Why use an online clock?

A browser-based clock is useful when you need a shared reference time on-screen:

Show precise time when seconds matter
Display a full-screen clock on a projector or second monitor
Help students track time during tests and timed activities
