If you operate in stock markets, if you are preparing a trip, if you have a friend or relative living abroad ... There are many reasons why you would like to have two watches, one with the local time and the other with a foreign time, in the starting screen from your phone. If that's your case, keep reading, because in Android Help we are going to propose several solutions.
The first thing is to distinguish well which screen we are referring to. We have the lock screen, in which the phone shows a default widget with a clock. There is also the screen Always On, which only exists in some terminals, and which offers the time on a low intensity display that never turns off. But where we are going is to the home screen, the screen that you see as soon as you unlock the device.
In that case, the solution is very simple. There are a good number of applications that offer to install alternative widgets to the time you have set, so that you can have not only one but two, three, four or even five clocks with international timetables. The ones you need. There's no more.
We are going to dwell on some of these applications.
Our own mobile allows you to put a clock with two hours but not on the phone screen
Android already allows you to have several clocks installed in different time zones. Of course, these various time zones can only be consulted when accessing the clock options to consult its tools. If you want to have several hours at a single glance in different zones on the home screen, keep reading.
The best applications to put the clock with two hours on the mobile screen
A very desirable option is to have applications that add new widgets to use. If you have room on your home screen for a few more widgets, your alternative might be some application such as Time and date, World Clock and widget, World Clock Widget or Dual Clock Widget (the last two in the image).
They are the three reference applications that appear in the Play Store search engine by the number of impressions, comments and downloads. In addition, they are kept up to date with what is revealed the commitment of their developers with these products.
World Clock Widget
The application is compatible with latest versions of Android, although its use and use with Android 9 Pie have not been reported. In addition, despite being a free version, it allows the user to decide what type of advertising he wants to see, and after a superficial test, his ads are apparently not invasive, since they only appear when one of the widgets is going to be edited.
The professional version of this application also allows you to have interactive colors that vary depending on whether one of the clocks in a specific time zone is marking the time of day or night. Supports the GMT and ZULU schedules and in its free edition it boasts an infinity of colors and appearance settings.
Time and date
The Time and Date website has been online for 20 years establishing itself as a "reliable" provider of information related to time and date worldwide, and this Android app version includes the local time in thousands of cities and updated information on summer time zones and changes.
Create a world clock by adding cities, customize your view, choose between analog or digital clock or use 12 or 24 hour formats, as well as installing a widget also on the home screen that will allow you to see the time simultaneously in various places in the world at a single glance. Of course, in the free version of the app the installation of widgets is limited to two simultaneously.
World clock and widget
Similar to the previous ones and also with constant updates, it requires a location finder Although mark an alternative in case a city does not appear or appears: you can mark another nearby time (for example, Berlin GMT + 1 instead of Madrid GMT + 1) and change the name of the watch manually.
It also offers to customize the backgrounds of its widgets and optionally also display the date below the clock.
