Tips & Best Practices

- Some regions observe daylight saving time, shifting their UTC offset by 1 hour.
- When it's noon in New York, it's 5 PM in London and 1 AM the next day in Tokyo.
Common Mistakes to Avoid
❌ Forgetting daylight saving time shifts.
✅ DST typically shifts clocks by 1 hour. Check if either location currently observes DST for accurate conversion.
❌ Confusing AM/PM with 24-hour time.
✅ Add 12 to PM hours (1 PM = 13:00). Subtract 12 from hours >12 for AM/PM format.
