Local time
Driven by your device clock
Local time here is the current clock time in your browser’s timezone. The display updates every second from your device—not from our server and not from IP location.
If the time looks wrong, check OS date & time settings, whether automatic time is enabled, and whether you manually picked another zone.
VPN and travel
A VPN changes your public IP and IP-based timezone estimates, but it does not by itself change this local clock. Traveling with automatic timezone enabled will update local time when the OS switches zones.
For a timezone-independent reference, open the UTC time tool.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is local time?
Local time is the current time according to your device’s timezone settings. It comes from your system clock and timezone, not from your Internet Protocol address.
Why does the time keep changing?
This page refreshes the display every second so you always see the current local time.
How do I change my local time?
- Windows:Settings → Time & language → Date & time.
- macOS:System Settings → General → Date & Time.
- Linux:use Date & Time settings or timedatectl.
- iOS/Android:Settings → General/System → Date & Time.
- Reload this page after changing.
Is this the same as server time?
No. This is your device’s local time in the browser. Server or Coordinated Universal Time can differ if your clock or timezone is wrong.
Does a Virtual Private Network change local time?
Usually not. A Virtual Private Network changes your public Internet Protocol address, not your device clock. Only changing the system timezone changes the local time shown here.
