What the comparator solves
Country pages show the current local time in one place. The comparator answers a different question: if it is a specific date and time in country A, what is the same instant everywhere else? That symmetry matters when you negotiate meeting slots rather than checking 'what time is it now'.
Step-by-step
Follow these steps on the comparator page:
- Add at least two countries with the search control.
- Tap a row to set the reference country—the anchor for date and time inputs.
- Enter a wall date and time or enable live mode to use the current instant.
- Read equivalent local times; watch for date rollovers shown on each row.
- Adjust countries or reference time until you find an acceptable window.
