Although the world has become a global village, countries are geographically spread out far and wide. While the sun rises in the east, the west is sleeping dead. For this reason, different locations are divided under different time zones. It can be a perfect time for you to call someone, but the person sitting (or maybe sleeping) on the other hemisphere would not like to receive your calls. Thankfully your iOS devices come in handy in such situations, mainly if you use one of these amazing time zone converter apps for iPhone and iPad.
