8 apps to beat time travel

Raise your hand if you woke up late, were late to a meeting or were generally confused by the time yesterday. 👋

You're not crazy — the clocks moved forward an hour on Sunday because of daylight saving time. “Spring ahead,” as they say. ⏰

The good news: your days will start to get longer and longer. The bad news: the time change will take some getting used to, especially if you're on a distributed team. And yes, the global Product Hunt team struggled with the time difference yesterday.



For those of you who also have teammates all over the 🌎, here are some apps to help you keep your times coordinated:
