Description
Show both/Converts between TAI (International Atomic Time) and UTC (Coordinated Universal Time aka GMT).
TAI is shown in 3 buttons as a 32 bit integer in seconds in both hexadecimal and decimal and as HH:MM:SS. UTC is shown in 3 buttons: - YYYY-MM-DD (year, month, day) - YYYY-DDD (year, dayofyear (0-365/366) - HH:MM:SS (hour, minute, second)
Tapping any button stops the running clock and allows you to edit it and show the corresponding time in the other representations.
A long press on either one of the TAI buttons or the UTC HH:MM:SS button starts the corresponding full screen clock. There is a setting to keep the screen on while displaying a full screen clock.
The running clock uses the system clock. The accuracy of the clock can optionally be improved by synchronizing with an internet time server using the SNTP protocol. The frequency of the updates can be set to Never, Once, Every 10 minutes, Every hour and Every 6 hours. Obviously this requires a working internet connection. SNTP updates are only active when the app is in the foreground.
Home screen widgets and a lock screen widget are also included. Widgets are resizable for Android >= 4.1.

I want to add that when I tested this app to the short wave radio stations WWV and WWVH I have found this app refreshingly accurate and precise in artificial time. Of course with Internet connection. The time does not noticeably vary. It's accurate and precise testing it against a variety of accurate and precise artificial time pieces. It's a personal favorite app for accurate and precise artificial time with reliable Internet connection.

Correct UTC available when Android clock off cquarksnow has obviously not read the description. When using SNTP updates you will always have the correct UTC even when your Android clock is not running correctly (as on my Nexus One).

Not UTC but Android clock (often different) As most Android phones like HTC EVO 4G, 3D, Motorola Photon and the like to have a device clock that's 15 seconds fast (Android bug 5485), what the application shows is your device time as "UTC", when it's often GPS. Note that Samsung Android phones do not have the issue, as the firmware compensates for the bug.
