@yevhen_h Orange is the new black, the design is interesting, congrats!

Will be something solely for the desktop? :)
(Admire orange/white minimalistic design you chose)

@busmark_w_nika Wow, desktop apps hadn't crossed my mind yet, but I'm definitely open to experimenting with that!

@yevhen_h Happy to hear you are considering it! :D
This looks super handy for anyone working or connecting with people across different time zones! Are there any plans to integrate with calendar apps to help with scheduling?

@supa_l Calendar integration sounds like a great idea, thanks! I hadn't considered that yet, but I'll definitely look into how to implement it seamlessly.
Congrats on the launch! Does Synchora offer a widget feature for quick time zone viewing without opening the app?

@feliciana_liu Thanks! Not at the moment, but I'm already planning to add Apple Watch app and widgets in an upcoming update.

iPhones don't have this natively?
Samsung clock app has this as long as I can remember...

@konrad_sx Time zones, yes, but you can't look at them conveniently. If it's 15:00 locally, and you want to instantly see what it's like in London, when it's 17:30 for you. Plus the convenient 12/24 hour mode.
really cool, @yevhen_h . how long did it take you to build this? vibe coded, I'm assuming? upvoted
on a practical note, why would I need this when I can set these up on all my devices natively?

@taniabell thank you! Well, with my main job, it took a little less than a week. From idea to release. It did it with Swift and SwiftUI.
As for the value, if you use the same time zones in your work, then there is not much value. But if you travel a lot, it can be useful to see the time shift in new cities.
Also, now I am more likely to dive into development, because before this I was doing product design for more than 10 years, and now this is an opportunity to implement my own products alone, as I see it. And therefore, I just take and implement interesting ideas for myself one by one.
@yevhen_h good luck with the launch. i'm thinking of doing the same - have a few ideas that I can build now that vibe coding is a thing

@taniabell it's a great strategy actually. We always gain experience, and I think experience is the most important thing. Good luck to you too!
I love the aesthetic!

Synchora sounds like such a handy tool for anyone working with teams or friends across time zones! 🌍 I love how it makes comparing time differences so easy and visual—it seems like a game-changer for scheduling. How does it visualize the time shifts—does it have an interactive map or a timeline view to help track multiple time zones at once?

@jonurbonas thanks Jonas!
In the first version, you add the cities you want and there is a circular slider, when you rotate it, the time shifts and you can track how much time it will be in each city. In addition, there are 12 and 24 hour modes.
There will be no interactive map yet, but it is a good idea! Thanks, I will do some research on how to implement this.
I see a clean UI app, I say that's pretty cool.

Congrats on the launch @yevhen_h.
Have a design suggestion - can you somehow visually show whether it is day, evening, night at the given location?
That why a person doesn't have to mentally parse the time. Visual gives an indication.

@ashitvora Agree, I'll try it in future updates! Thank you!
I see from the images that it show the time in different time zones, but it seems to be missing the date.

@evakk I haven't set a specific date yet, but I'll add it to my backlog. Thanks for the suggestion!

hey! Congrat's. Looks really nice. Is there is a plan to add similar app to android ?

@vladyslavvashchinskyi Thanks! Not sure, but think about macOS version.
This tool simplifies global scheduling efforts! 👍
Looks good! The ideas people have shared in the comments are really compelling. Can’t wait to see the updated product!
