What a Material You 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.

Material You is the design language Google introduced with Android 12. Widgets use soft tonal colors drawn from the wallpaper, very round corners and big readable numbers. This recipe recreates the look with fixed colors you choose.
