What it does
A live digital clock that updates every second, with toggles for 12/24-hour and seconds visibility. Reads from your device clock and your system time-zone setting — nothing is sent to a server.
Useful when you want a big readable clock on a second monitor, on a streaming overlay, or as a focal point during a timed task. Works fully offline once the page loads.

Frequently asked questions
- Is this clock accurate?
- It reads your device's clock, so it's as accurate as your OS time. Most modern devices sync to NTP servers automatically and stay within a few hundred milliseconds of UTC.
- Why does my time zone matter?
- The clock displays time in your system's configured time zone (shown below the clock). If you're traveling and your laptop hasn't updated, the clock will show whatever your OS thinks the local time is.
