Ubuntu – Clocks for multiple timezones in GNOME Shell

clockgnome-shelltimetimezone

I looked everywhere but I couldn't find a way to display multiple clocks in GNOME 3. In classic GNOME and Unity, it is possible. Also, for some strange reason, additional timezones cannot be added to the clock using the time-date applet in classic GNOME. Any solutions?

To install multiple clocks, you need GNOME Clocks which is now available in the official repos and you can install via Ubuntu Software (formerly the Software Center).

(Note: The button above points to the snap store, which does have GNOME Clocks, but the snap application doesn't fully work on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS; the times don't show up.)

Or, to install it from the command line:

  1. Open a terminal (CtrlAltT)

  2. Run 

    sudo apt install gnome-clocks

Logout and login after installing and it will appear in your notification menu. Or instead of logging out and in, restart GNOME Shell: press Alt+F2, type r, then press Enter.
