What a flat world clock widget shows

A world clock widget is for anyone with family, friends or colleagues in another time zone. Three cities in columns, each with its time and a day hint, answer "is it too late to call?" at a glance.

Each clock layer in WidgetCraft can use its own time zone, chosen by city. It is free, works offline and needs no permission; daylight saving is handled automatically.

How the flat style shapes it

Flat widgets use blocks of solid color with white text and simple shapes. There is no depth at all, which keeps them crisp at any size and quick to build.

Numbers: Keep numbers white and semi-bold.
Text: Use white text on the color block with a paler tint for labels.

How to make a flat world clock widget in WidgetCraft

Create a widget and open Canvas. Set the size to 360 × 180, the background to #2D6CDF and the corner radius to 16.
Tap Add and choose Clock. Set the format to hours and minutes, the font to built-in Sans, the size to 35 and the color to #FFFFFF.
Duplicate the clock twice and space the three about 112 apart. Open each copy's details, choose Time zone and pick its city.
Add a Text label above each clock with the city name at size 12 in #CFE0FF, and the offset below it.
Add thin Shape dividers between the columns and a short rule in #FFC83D under your own city.
Add the flat ornament with Shape layers and move them below the other layers in Layers: a darker cobalt triangle filling the bottom right corner.
Tap Save, then Add to home screen and resize the widget on your launcher if needed.

Tips for flat world clock widgets

Pick one strong background color per widget.
Use a darker shade of the same color for tracks.
Three cities fit a 4 × 2 widget; four make the numbers too small.
Add the day offset, such as "+1 day", when a city is already tomorrow.
Put your own city first so the others read relative to it.
Do not add shadows or gradients.
Do not use more than one accent.
