Ask HN: "Time zone" tag feature in communication apps

1 pointsby os7bornealmost 5 years ago
Recently, I&#x27;ve had to schedule calls with founders and investors from across the world South East Asia to Europe to Latin America. While scheduling, converting time zones is always a task - switch app, check, agree.<p>Is it difficult to build a feature within communication apps (Email, Chat, DM&#x27;s etc.) to have a &quot;Time Zone&quot; tag? Similar to a contact tag in email, for example.<p>The &quot;Time Zone&quot; tag can automatically display the local time of sender or receiver. I know there are tools that can convert time for you and use additional extensions etc. But why not bake it as a feature within such communication apps as scheduling is so important?
