Frequently Asked Questions
Does the converter adjust automatically for Daylight Saving Time (DST)?
Yes. Because calculations use the official IANA timezone database via `Intl`, spring forward and fall back time shifts are calculated automatically for the specified calendar date.
Can I compare more than two timezones at once?
Yes. You can add as many global cities and timezones as you need to compare multi-region schedules simultaneously.
Are military/24-hour time formats supported?
Yes. The display clearly indicates 24-hour equivalents alongside 12-hour AM/PM times.
