Online Clock

A clear, always-correct clock for your screen

This online clock reads the time straight from your own device, so it stays accurate whether you are at a desk in Sydney, a kitchen bench in Perth, or travelling between time zones. There is nothing to install and no account to create — open the page and the current local time appears instantly, updating four times a second so the seconds tick smoothly rather than jumping.

Tap Full screen to turn any laptop, tablet, or spare monitor into a large wall clock — handy for classrooms, reception desks, livestream overlays, gyms, or a tidy second-monitor display. Prefer a 12-hour readout with am/pm, or want to hide the seconds for a calmer face? Both are a single tap away, and your choice stays put while the page is open.

Ways people use it

  • Teachers & presenters: project a big, legible clock so the whole room can keep to time.
  • Remote workers: keep a glanceable clock on a second screen during calls and focus blocks.
  • Streamers: show the live time as a clean full-screen source for capture software.
  • Anyone resting their eyes: hide the seconds and switch to 24-hour for a quieter, distraction-free face.

Frequently asked questions

Where does the time come from?

From your device's own system clock and time-zone setting. If your computer or phone has the correct time, this clock will match it exactly. We never send your time anywhere.

Can I switch between 12-hour and 24-hour time?

Yes. Use the 24h and 12h buttons to toggle instantly. The 12-hour view adds am/pm; the 24-hour view runs from 00:00 to 23:59.

Does full screen work on phones?

On most browsers, yes. Tap Full screen and the clock expands to fill the display; tap Exit full screen or press Escape to return. A few mobile browsers limit the Full-screen API, in which case the button simply has no effect.

Will it keep working if I lose internet?

Once the page has loaded, the clock runs entirely in your browser, so it keeps ticking even if your connection drops.
