Hey all, I know this is a common problem that has been solved many times before, but I've always been disappointed by how the other tools are designed. Just show me the times!
Congrats on the launch - super useful! I love the utilitarian approach - I do think the site could benefit from jazzing up the colors a bit, but that might just be personal preference. One thing I did run into is that my instinct was to clicks on the locations at the bottom of the screen to edit them and it took me a bit to realize that I needed to scroll down to access the area where I could edit, so maybe just indicate that somehow or make the locations clickable to edit. Nice done - gonna use this going forward!
Thank you so much Adam! All your feedback is super helpful.
Yes I agree it's not super obvious you can scroll down the first time. That's sort of intentional - once you set your timezones, you probably rarely need to change them (at least compared to viewing times up top), so all that UI stays out of the way. On mobile, if you tap on any zone name, the site scrolls down. I wonder if that could also work for desktop. I'll keep thinking about it.
Balancing first-time ease-of-use with keeping the UI clean for regular repeated use has been a constant tradeoff with this design.
