The default Windows 11 date and time only allows up to two additional time zone clocks. To add more than 3 clocks (including the main clock), you need to use a different app.

Fortunately, there is a built-in Windows app that is able to show as many time zone clocks as you want – the Alarms & Clock app. Thus, you don’t need to install any third party app just to view clocks from different time zone.

You can search for and open Alarms & Clock app via the Start menu or Search. Alternatively, to open the app quickly next time, you can pin the app to your taskbar by right-clicking the Alarms & Clock app from the search result and select Pin to taskbar.

Open Alarms and Clock app Windows 11

In the Alarms and Clock app, on the left pane, click on World Clock. To add a clock of a time zone or city, click on the “Add new city” button.
