What is GMT/UTC Clock?
GMT/UTC Clock is a Chrome extension that offers users an easy way to keep track of GMT/UTC time directly from their browser toolbar. Ideal for those in need of a quick reference to Coordinated Universal Time without the fuss, the extension is minimalist in design and simple to use. It automatically updates the time every 5 seconds and now features a new, aesthetically pleasing style with improved readability. Users can also see the day of the week in UTC format. With the latest update, there's no need to download a font, as it uses Google Web Fonts.

best little utc clock
by Julie M, 2024-08-16

Idk how a clock extension keeps breaking, but lordy it's funny to me. 0000-0059 shows as 2400-2459, randomly freezes unless it's clicked on. Funniest thing is, this is the best one on the store.

UTC time no longer visible on toolbar. I rely on being able to glance at the time, like any other clock.
