How to add a world clock in Notion

You can add a world clock in Notion that shows the current time and date in another city. Pick a time zone, give it a name, and the clock keeps ticking. You can add a Clock for each city that you follow.

Notion data

The world clock does not take Notion data. You pick its time zone in the editor.

Add a world clock and embed it in Notion

1. In the Blocky dashboard, click Create widget.
2. Under Category, choose Timer.
3. Under Widget type, choose World. This is the world clock.
4. Under Style, choose a template, such as Normal.
5. Click Open editor.
6. In the Elements panel, select the Time zone part of the Clock. The Minimalist template hides this part: if the Settings panel says "Show Time zone to edit it again.", click Show. Then open the Appearance tab.
7. In Time zone, pick the zone of your city. If you clicked Show, click the eye on the Time zone row to hide the zone name again.
8. Change the text, colors, and settings of the clock in the editor.
9. Click Save. Blocky publishes the clock and opens the dashboard.
10. On the card of the clock, click Copy.
11. In Copy embed link, copy the link on the Public tab. Anyone who has a Private link can use it, so use a private link only on pages that you control.
12. In Notion, open the page for the clock. Type /embed, choose Embed, and paste the link.
13. Confirm the embed. If the clock needs more space, resize the embed block.

Templates

The create dialog lists the templates of the world clock under Style:

• Normal (Normal world clock). A white card with a gray border and a globe icon before the zone name. The time ticks in bold with seconds, and the date sits in gray below it.
• Analog (Analog world clock). A white card with a clock face and a red second hand under the zone name, with the digital time in gray below it.
• Retro (Retro world clock). A charcoal card with a thick red border, red text, and a monospace font.
• Minimalist (Minimalist world clock). A light gray card with no zone name, just a large, thin time and the date below it.
• Gradient (Gradient world clock). A purple-to-pink gradient card with white text and a sunrise icon before the zone name.

Inputs

The world clock has no Inputs tab. Its main settings are on the parts of each Clock, on the Appearance tab:

• On the Time zone part, Time zone sets the zone that the whole clock follows. Label is the name that the clock shows for the zone.
• On the Time part, Show seconds turns the seconds on or off.
