iClock is a Mac utility that lives on your Menu Bar and gives you access to various time-related features.
The application comes with two separate status bar icons, one revealing the current time and another showing the moon phase and date. By clicking the first icon from the left side of your status bar you will reveal the main menu of the program. There, you will have access to the built-in Floating Clocks tool, Stop Watch utility, and the Preferences panel of the app. By clicking the second icon of the program you will reveal a small calendar screen.
You can choose which world clock info to be displayed in the Floating Clocks window, select the preferred clock style (Digital or Analog), and change font style if necessary. All of the aforementioned settings can be found in the Preferences panel of the program and can easily be configured even by a beginner computer user.
Furthermore, you can use this app to set alarms. For instance, you can set a sound alarm to let you know when it's time to take a break from your work.
In my opinion, this program still needs some work. In my testing, it occasionally ran slow and even crashed a couple of times. This usually happened when I changed the settings from the Preferences panel.
So, I think you should look for a different Mac application for checking the time in various places from the world. You can easily find other clock tools that provide you with extra features, work great, and are cheaper.

I was searching for the one app that would allow me to use specific sounds I supplied. Surprisingle this is the only one I find. I was however extremely disappointed in the user interface. Yes it seems to havbe just about every feature I would ever need. BUT the User interface is terrible. I can’t set the time for the alarm to go off without have the sound go off. It is also not straightforard in setting the time It takes me 5+ mutes to set the time. As the controls are small. I like to have several alarms but for some reason it is niot obvious on how to cancel. It works and yes I paid for it but I think I should ask for my money back.
I am not sure what is going on here... the app says version 5.8.94 and the app store says the same, but it is flagged as new. Still buggy and should have been fixed at least by 2.0, not 5.8.94.
A clock application with wide functionality. I'm thinking over turning to it.
