flickytime is a free, interactive world clock. Spin the pixel-art globe and tap any city to see its current local time, then browse upcoming sporting events with every kickoff converted to your own time zone.
Tap PLANto open the meeting planner. Add as many cities as you need with the search box at the bottom, then drag the time slider to see everyone's local time at once. Green dots mean work hours, amber is early or late, and dim means asleep. The strip under the slider shows the best overlap across your day — tap BEST to jump to the strongest slot.
Open the events list, choose a league, and each fixture shows its start time in your local time — no manual conversion. Tap an event to mark the venue on the globe and check the local time there too.
The dithered shadow line on the globe is the real day/night terminator — it moves with the sun so you can see who's awake at a glance. City lights glow on the night side. Open PLAN when you need exact work-hour overlap.

Tap the temperature to switch between °F and °C; your choice is remembered. If it's actively raining or snowing where you tapped, a faint drift of rain or snow appears over that spot on the globe itself.
For more detail, tap 7-DAY next to that badge (or the WEATHER button by YOUR TIME) to open the full forecast: current conditions with humidity, wind, pressure, visibility, dew point, UV index, and air quality, plus a 24-hour outlook and a 7-day forecast — all pulled live for that exact location, whether it's your city or anywhere you've tapped on the globe.
Open LIVE MUSIC from the secrets panel for a small built-in radio: a handful of curated video/lo-fi stations plus a looping playlist station, with volume control and a NEXT STATION button. It keeps playing across mini-games and page navigation until you close it.
Tap the Flicky character in the corner to open the FLICKY SECRETSpanel — a grab-bag of toggles and one-shot effects: sound and music switches, Flicky's mood, sky effects like meteor showers and alien dogfights, rocket launches from real pads, and a travel mode that warps the view out to Saturn. It also holds three full mini-games that take over the screen:
Keep an eye out — a few more secrets only unlock after finding a hidden trick elsewhere in the app.

After your first online visit, flickytime caches the globe and city search so the app keeps working offline.

Live scores and fresh event schedules still need a network connection.
flickytime is a free interactive world clock. You spin a pixel-art 3D globe and tap any city to instantly see its current local time. It also tracks upcoming sporting events worldwide and shows each kickoff time converted to your own time zone.
Drag the globe to spin it, then tap the spot you care about. flickytime reads the time zone for that location and shows the current local time, the date, and how far ahead or behind it is from you. You can also use the search box to jump straight to a city by name.
Every location on Earth belongs to a time zone defined by its offset from Coordinated Universal Time (UTC). A world clock looks up the time zone for a place, applies its current UTC offset, and adjusts automatically for daylight saving time where it is observed. flickytime uses the IANA time zone database so the offsets stay accurate year-round.
UTC (Coordinated Universal Time) is the modern global time standard kept by atomic clocks, while GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) is the older time zone of the Greenwich meridian. For everyday purposes they point to the same clock time, but UTC is the precise reference that all other time zones are measured against.
Daylight saving time (DST) is the practice of moving clocks forward by an hour in spring and back in autumn to make better use of daylight. Not every country observes it, and start and end dates differ by region. flickytime applies the correct DST rules for each time zone automatically, so the time you see is the time on the wall there right now.
Open PLAN to launch the meeting planner. Add the cities you are coordinating with, then drag the time slider to see each location's local time at that moment. Green means work hours, amber is early or late, and dim means asleep. The overlap strip highlights the best times of day when the most people are awake and available.
Open the events list and pick a league. flickytime shows each fixture with its kickoff converted to your local time, plus whether it is upcoming, starting soon, or live. Tap an event to drop a marker on the globe at the venue and see the local time there too.
flickytime bundles schedules for major worldwide competitions such as football (soccer) fixtures, Formula 1 race weekends, and other high-profile events. Listings focus on the current week so you always see what is coming up next, with times localized to wherever you are.
No account or sign-up. flickytime runs in your browser for free. You can optionally add it to your home screen for a full-screen app icon and offline access after your first visit. Saved places and preferences stay on your device, not on a server.
Yes, after one online visit the app caches the globe assets and city search data. The world clock and meeting planner work offline. Sporting event lists and live scores refresh when you are back online.
Tap a city and use SHARE to copy a link to that spot on the globe. In PLAN, set the slider and cities you want, then tap SHARE to copy a planner link. Opening the link restores the same setup in the recipient's browser.
The label is guessed from your network location and may name a nearby suburb instead of the city you identify with. Tap YOUR TIME, search for your city, and flickytime remembers your choice. The clock still follows your device's time zone. Choose Use auto-detect again to go back to automatic detection.
