Time Zone Converter

Convert times and time ranges across multiple time zones — paste the results directly into any app.

Features

• Convert a single time or a time range across any number of locations
• Automatic overnight detection for ranges (e.g. 11 PM – 1 AM)
• Day labels shown when any time zone in the output spans midnight
• Natural language time input via chrono-node
• City names, region names, airport codes, and timezone abbreviations all accepted
• List or inline output format, configurable per conversion and as a default preference

Usage

1. Open Raycast and type Convert Time
2. Enter a time or time range in the Time field
3. Optionally enter locations in the Locations field (comma-separated), or leave blank to use your defaults
4. Choose Inline or List output format
5. Press Enter — the result is copied and pasted automatically

Supported Time Inputs

Single times

Input	Interpreted as
3PM	3:00 PM today
3:30PM or 3:30 PM	3:30 PM today
15:30	3:30 PM today (24-hour)
now	Current time
noon	12:00 PM today
midnight	12:00 AM today

Natural language (via chrono-node)

Input	Example
Relative days	tomorrow 3pm, yesterday noon
Named weekdays	next Friday 2pm, Monday at 9am
Relative offsets	in 3 hours, in 30 minutes
Named dates	Christmas 5pm, New Year's Eve 11pm
Full dates	March 15 2pm, Apr 3 at 10:30am

Time ranges

Append a second time using any of these separators:

Separator	Example
- (hyphen)	1pm - 3pm
– (en dash)	1pm – 3pm
to	1pm to 3pm
through	11pm through 1am
until	2pm until 4pm

Ranges can include a date: next Friday 1pm - 3pm

Overnight ranges are detected automatically — 11pm - 1am correctly places the end time the following day.

Day Labels in Range Output

Day labels (e.g. Friday, Saturday) appear automatically when:

• Any location's output spans midnight, or
• The input includes an explicit date

When a range spans midnight in a given timezone, each time in the pair gets its own label:

11:00 PM (Friday) - 12:00 AM (Saturday) Austin

When a range stays within the same day, one label follows the end time:

5:00 AM - 6:00 AM (Saturday) London

Supported Location Inputs

• City names: London, Tokyo, Austin, Sydney
• Region / country names: Eastern, Pacific, Central, Japan, India, Australia
• Timezone abbreviations: EST, CST, PST, CET, JST, IST, AEST
• Airport / short codes: NYC, LAX, SFO, LHR, CDG, DXB
• Informal names: UK, LA, SF, DC, Dubai, China, Brazil

Output Formats

11:00 PM (Friday) - 12:00 AM (Saturday) Austin / 5:00 AM - 6:00 AM (Saturday) London / 2:00 PM - 3:00 PM (Saturday) Sydney
