- Csillagos értékelés: 2 / 5készítette: Localghost, egy éveThis extension does not really have any added value.
- Csillagos értékelés: 5 / 5készítette: That One Guy, 2 éveI found this time converter thru a search engine. It is great for reading World wide investing sites. Like another reviewer said, I also agree "it should be part of Firefox, itself."
- Pro - It largely works, and it's honestly a bit absurd that this functionality is not a part of the web browser itself.
Con - Strangely, it seems to determine my time zone via my IP address and not my PC's clock. It presently appears to think that I am in the Eastern time zone rather than my true time zone. As it so happens, my IP is currently one out of Boston, MA, which would explain the assumption that I am in EST.
It could be that add-ons can't use the local time on the PC and so the IP is used as work around, but I would be surprised if this is the case.
This seems a bit odd and it's quite unreliable, as even Google often misplaces my real IP from here in the U.S. as being from an entirely different country.
So if this add-on can use the system clock instead then that would be, of course, preferred.
Seeing 8 PM EST is 8:00 PM in my local time zone was a bit of an unfortunate surprise.
edit: Conversely, it could simply let me set my time zone in the options, but this add-on doesn't seem to have an options menu.Fejlesztői válasz
közzétéve: 3 éveHello,
Sorry to hear you're having issues.
The extension does not use your IP address.
Browsers come packed with an API for Internationalization, that uses your system information.
When processing times, the extension first normalises them to UTC, before applying your timezone offset, which is determined using the Date getTimezoneOffset function. They are then formatted using Intl.DateTimeFormat.
I would suggest checking that your system time is correctly set. (Perhaps DST is incorrectly set)
Also, just in case you have been testing times specifically using EST, most places in the Eastern timezone are currently using EDT, not EST.
The extension understands the use of ET as shorthand for the currently used version.
(I do want to be able to warn users about these mix ups in a future update)
I will consider adding an option to set your desired local timezone.
I hope this helps you, if not please do get in touch. - Csillagos értékelés: 5 / 5készítette: Friend of blob, 3 éve
- Csillagos értékelés: 1 / 5készítette: Currofenris, 3 éveI like how it works, but it is failing with countries with switching timezones: Spain is UTC+1, but in summer it's UTC+2. Either that or the conversions it's displaying to me are completely off

közzétéve: 3 éveCould you provide a little more information about what's going on, and your timezone? What times are being improperly displayed for you? - Csillagos értékelés: 5 / 5készítette: Firefox felhasználó 15151236, 4 éveThis should be a default feature in everything, it's great!
- Csillagos értékelés: 5 / 5készítette: Firefox felhasználó 16256853, 5 éveJust what I was looking for. Works great and I like the hover-over tooltip hint.

közzétéve: 5 éveutc+6 works fine.
But a time like "7 utc+6" will not be converted as the hour is ambiguous.
"7:00 utc+6" and "7am utc+6" will be treated as converting from 7am.
"19:00 utc+6" and "7pm utc+6" will be treated as converting from 7pm.
("19 utc+6" doesn't get converted, I should see to that)
