## Description

Stop converting time in your head! See local, military, and UTC time (GMT and Zulu time zones) with a tap.

Developed by pilots who can never remember the current UTC (GMT/Zulu) time conversion, Pilot Time instantly gives you the current time and date for your zone, plus UTC time. 

Pilot Time can:
- Compare the time and date at your current location (in 12-hour format and 24-hour format) to UTC time.  
- Show the 3 time zones you looked at most recently, plus UTC time.
- Quickly convert any past, current, or future time to or from any time zone (including GMT).

And selecting time zones is easy: first find the continent, then the city you want. No more mental calculations. 

(The time is provided by your phone's operating system, not a central server. Time zones are taken from the IANA Time Zone Database.)

## Review summary

Pilot Time is praised for its clean UI and handy time tools (Local/Zulu and 24-hour format), plus free access and responsive developers. However, multiple users report stability problems after updates, including startup crashes and non-loading issues, along with widget failures. Time zone handling is also inconsistent, with defaults to LA, limited coverage for some zones, and misnamed names. Despite fixes from the developers, stability concerns persist for some users.

### Pros

- Clean, minimal UI with no bloat
- Easy to use with Local and Zulu time, including 24-hour format
- Time tools useful for pilots and quick time checks
- Free to use without a paywall
- Developer responsiveness and timely fixes when issues are reported

### Cons

- Crashes on startup or after updates / not loading
- Widget loading failures after updates (widget shows UNABLE TO LOAD or won't load)
- Time zone handling is inconsistent (defaulting to Los Angeles, limited zone coverage, and misnamed zones)
