Inside Settings, click on Time & language on the left menu.

On the right, click the Date & time box.

Step 3Add Extra Clocks for Different Time Zones

Windows 11 lets you add up to two extra clocks directly within the ⚙️ Settings app. This means you can quickly check different time zones without needing any extra applications. You can also give each clock a custom name, like ‘New York’ or ‘London’, making it clear which location each one represents.

A small window will appear to guide you through the setup.

• Check the box for Show this clock for Clock 1 (and Clock 2 if you want).
• Pick the time zone you want to see from the dropdown menu.
• Type a name for the clock like “New York” or “London” so you know which city it is.
• Click OK to save your settings.

Windows 11 shows extra clocks when you move your mouse pointer over the clock 🖥️ on the Taskbar. This feature lets you quickly check times in different locations without needing to open any menus.

Step 4Use the Windows Clock App to See Many Time Zones

If you need to track more than two time zones on Windows 11, the built-in Clock app is an excellent option, allowing you to add as many cities as necessary. Open the Clock app from the ⊞ Start menu, pick ‘World clock’ on the left, and then click the ‘+’ button to add new cities. Type in a city name and select it from the results to add it to your list.

• ⊞ Click Start, then search for and open the Clock app.
• On the left side, click World clock.
• At the bottom left, click the + button to add cities.
• Type the city or place you want and select it.
• Repeat to add as many as you like.

Why Use Multiple Time Zones?

• Easy to check times for your friends, family, or coworkers in different places.
• Helps you plan calls and meetings without waking anyone up or missing appointments.
• Great for travelers to keep track of home time and local time.
• Simple to set up with just a few clicks.

Summary

Adding multiple time zones in Windows 11 is straightforward, whether you opt for the two extra clocks via Settings or use the Clock app for unlimited cities.
