About the time zone map
Why was day and night not visible before?
Earlier versions only coloured city pins for day/night. The map now draws a live night shadow (terminator) across the globe, plus day/night pin colours.
How do I search for a city on the map?
Type a city in Search city on map and press Go. The globe rotates and zooms to that pin, and the side panel shows live local time.
Why didn’t country and city names show before?
By default the globe shows country-level names. Zoom in to reveal city names, or search a city to fly there and open its label.
How do I use the 3D globe?
Choose Globe 3D, Equal Earth, or Mercator. Drag to rotate or pan, zoom with +/−, and click glowing pins for city clocks.
