How ZonePlan works
Scheduling across time zones is deceptively hard. The math is simple until daylight saving, half-hour offsets like India's, and date rollovers turn a quick calculation into a spreadsheet. The classic failure mode is inviting a teammate in Bangalore to a "3pm" call that lands at 1:30am their time. ZonePlan removes the guesswork: pick a base city and time, add everyone else, and read each person's local clock straight off the table.
The real magic is the overlap finder. Instead of nudging a time back and forth, ZonePlan scans all 24 hours of the day and surfaces the window where it's normal working hours (9am-5pm) in every city at once. If a perfect overlap exists, you'll see it in the green banner. If it doesn't, that's useful too: it tells you up front that someone will have to take an early or late call, so you can share the pain fairly instead of always defaulting to headquarters' convenience.
Everything runs in your browser using the IANA time zone database that powers operating systems worldwide, so daylight saving is always correct and nothing is ever sent to a server. Your usual set of cities is remembered locally, which makes ZonePlan ideal for the recurring standups and client calls that fill a distributed team's week. No account, no install, no ad clutter -- just open it and plan. Updated for 2026.

Frequently asked questions
How do I find the best time to meet across time zones in 2026?
Pick your base city and meeting time above, then add everyone else's city. ZonePlan instantly shows each person's local time using live IANA time zone data and highlights the window where it's working hours (9am-5pm) for everybody. The green 'best overlap' banner tells you the sweet spot. All times are computed in your browser with real-time DST detection -- no more mental math.
Does ZonePlan handle daylight saving time correctly?
Yes, and this is our most important feature. All times are computed live in your browser using the official IANA time zone database (the same one that powers macOS, Windows, and Linux). When any city enters or exits DST, the offset updates automatically. You never have to remember whether London is currently GMT or BST, or whether New York is EST or EDT. The live clock always shows the real, current time.
Is ZonePlan really free?
Completely free. No sign-up, no app to install, no clutter. Your usual list of cities is saved in your browser's local storage so it's ready the next time you schedule a standup or client call. We run ads to keep the lights on, but the planner itself is unrestricted.
Can I use it for recurring weekly meetings?
That's exactly what it's built for. Save your team's cities once and reopen the planner every week. Because DST transitions happen on different dates in different countries, we recommend checking this page at the start of each season to confirm your standing slot still works for everyone.
How many cities can I add to the meeting planner?
As many as you need. The overlap finder scans all 24 hours and finds the window where it's working hours in every city at once. If no perfect overlap exists, the tool tells you upfront so you can split into two calls or rotate who takes the early/late slot fairly.
Which cities are supported?
We cover 35+ major remote-work hubs across the Americas, Europe, Asia, and Oceania -- from New York and London to Bangalore, Singapore, and Auckland. Each city pair page includes per-city DST rules, remote work culture notes, and a live hourly conversion table. See the full list on our time zones page.
