World Clock Live – Time Zones
LED world map on your desktop
Only for Mac
Free · In‑App Purchases
Mac
World Clock Live puts the LED world clock from airport lounges and trading floors onto your desktop: a world map with real seven-segment digits, ticking away behind your icons.
It is a wallpaper, not a window. The clock is drawn on the desktop layer — above your background picture, below your files — and the app itself sits in the menu bar with no Dock icon and nothing in your way. You keep clicking straight through to the desktop as always.
WHAT YOU GET
• A world map with LED clock panels, 24 cities by default
• 98 city presets across every time zone, or any time zone you like
• Seven-segment digits drawn as vectors: no fonts, sharp on every Retina display
• Daylight saving handled automatically, everywhere — including the half-hour zones (Mumbai, Kathmandu, Tehran, Adelaide)
• Cities dim at night, so one glance tells you who is asleep
• Near-zero CPU: only the digits that actually change get redrawn, and rendering pauses when the Mac sleeps or the screen locks
• Mode, theme, colour and pause straight from the menu bar
• Window and fullscreen modes too, for a lobby screen or a spare monitor
FREE
Twelve cities spread around the globe, red LEDs, dark theme. No account, no sign-up, no time limit.
PRO — one purchase, no subscription
• Unlimited cities, your own names, free positioning on the map
• All eight LED colours, plus any colour you pick yourself
• Light theme: black map on white
• Dot-matrix and outline map styles
• Glow, unlit-segment and clock-size controls
• Your own footer text
PRIVACY
No account, no tracking, no analytics, no ads. The app makes no network requests of its own — the only connection it ever opens is to Apple, when you buy Pro.
Made for people whose colleagues, family or markets sit in other time zones — and for anyone who simply likes the look.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
• The map now fills the whole screen. Earlier versions left a thin black border on every side.
• On screens that are not 16:9 you can now choose whether the map fits inside the screen or covers it completely — Settings → Layout.
• Leaving fullscreen with Escape no longer risks taking the window down with it.
