Shaun O'Leary (ID: 00000046e367d357) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 04/12/2023 I livestream a number of overseas TV channels, and this extension allows me to easily convert the TV guides into my local timezone. It's really, really good. The only thing it needs to make it absolutely perfect is the option to save my settings for a given site, so any time I access the site, it is automatically converted to my local timezone right from the start. Absolutely superb extension, thank you very much!

luke l (ID: 00000087987531ee) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 03/03/2023 works excellent, this is one of those extensions that should be installed for everyone by default. All i hope is that you can make a similar extension for currency conversion, as i have not found one that is as seamless or good.

Manimanocas (ID: 0000002e069e2fbc) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 12/13/2022 Best one out of the whole WebStore. 1- You dont need to click the extension or select the area, its fully automatic. 2- You can switch from 24h format and 12h format. 3- You can easily see what time was there before and switch the text to it with a click. (my personal favorite). 4- Really good settings. This extension is marvelous! Thank YOU! :)
