Clock application options
Right off the bat, let's talk about what you can actually do in the Clock app. It really is a faithful copy of iPadOS, which means that it is divided into four parts in total. The first is world time, where can you notchat show the time in different cities, the second is Alarm clock, where you can easily and quickly set an alarm clock. The third part is Stopwatch, where you can immediately start the stopwatch and measure split times, the last part is then a minute where you can set a countdown and subsequent notifications.

Display of the minute in the top bar
As I mentioned on the previous page, one of the options of the new Clock application is also to set a timer, or rather a countdown. This function, as the only one of all, is also written to the top bar, which is definitely absolutely great. This means that if you start a timer for a certain time, this countdown will appear in the top bar, so you always have it in sight. If you click on it, you will immediately find yourself in the Clock application. The disadvantage is that on a Mac you cannot set multiple timers at once.
Toggle stopwatch display
By default, the stopwatch in macOS Ventura's Clock is displayed in digital form. This is of course fine for most users, but if you are a fan of the classic stopwatch with a hand, you can switch the appearance from digital to manual. It's not difficult, just go to the Clock app, and then click on View in the top bar. Here, just click on the Show manual stopwatch option .

Quick start timer
The native Clock app on your Mac also supports shortcuts, which allow you to quickly start a timer via Spotlight, for example. It's not complicated - just launch Spotlight on your Mac, either by clicking the magnifying glass icon in the upper right or by pressing Command + Spacebar, and then type start timer . Once the shortcut appears, press Enter to open it, set the parameters , and you're done.
Adding an alarm clock or world time
An integral part of the Clock application is, of course, an alarm clock and a world clock. In both of these sections, it is possible to add multiple entries, i.e. multiple alarms and cities for displaying world times. The procedure is the same in both cases – just tap the inconspicuous + icon in the upper right corner . A window will then appear where, in the case of an alarm , you can set its time, repetition, label, sound and snooze option , and in the case of world time, you can search for a specific city and confirm it.
