What Time Is It Right Now?
This online clock shows the exact current time based on your location. It updates automatically every second, so you always see the correct time — without refreshing the page. No settings, no login. Just the time, right now.
Why People Check the Time
People check the time for many reasons — to start studying, to stop working, or to see how much of the day is left. Sometimes it's about deadlines; sometimes it's about waiting. Often, checking the time is a pause between intention and action. That moment of looking at the clock can be productive or it can be another way to delay. Either way, the time keeps moving.
A Clock Doesn't Stop Time
An online clock can tell you the time, but it can't tell you what to do with it. Seconds pass whether you act or not. Time keeps moving; a clock only shows it. Knowing the time is easy. Using it is harder. This page gives you the time. What you do with that information — start the task, close the tab, or keep scrolling — is still up to you. Action is still required.
From Time Awareness to Time Discipline
Mom Clock was built for moments when awareness isn't enough. It doesn't remind you gently. It creates structure when willpower runs out — with alarms that don't negotiate, app blocking that removes the option to drift, and no snooze. If you need more than knowing the time, and you're ready for something that enforces it, that's where Mom Clock comes in.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is this online clock accurate?
Yes. This clock uses server time, synced with internet time servers, and displays it in your local time zone. The display updates every second. For most day-to-day use — studying, working, meeting start times — it's as accurate as your phone or computer's system clock.
Does this clock update automatically?
Yes. The time on this page updates every second without you doing anything. You don't need to refresh the page. Leave the tab open and it will keep showing the current time. No login or settings required.
Can I use this clock while studying or working?
Yes. This page is minimal on purpose: just the time. No ads, no notifications, no links to pull you away. Many people keep it open in a browser tab or on a second screen as a simple reference while they work or study.
What's the difference between this and a phone clock?
A phone clock sits next to everything else — messages, apps, and alerts. Checking the time often means getting pulled into something else. This online clock does one thing: it shows the time. No notifications, no temptation to open another app. For focus, that clarity can matter. If you want the time without the distraction, this page is for you. For structure and enforcement, there's Mom Clock.
