    Updated 27 December 2017

    World Clock is a lightning component that displays the time along with City and Country name. One can position this clock on every record page like Leads, Contacts, Accounts, Contracts and even on Community pages. You can add it on a record page to display the Time based on the Billing City and schedule your meetings with your business customers accordingly. This lightning component is available on community page as well. You can configure it dynamically to set the time based on City, ZipCode or Country Name.
