Realme: Turn On or Off Dual Clock

If you travel across time zones or keep in touch with family abroad, seeing only one clock on your lock screen makes planning calls harder. Realme phones can show a second clock for your usual residence next to the current location time, but this only works once dual clock is switched on and configured for the right screens.

Turn On/Off Dual Clock auf Realme

Dual clock on Realme UI adds a second time display next to your current location time. It shows the time for a location you define as your usual residence, which helps when you travel or coordinate with contacts in another time zone.

The feature sits in the date and time settings and needs two things to work: dual clock must be enabled, and your usual residence has to be set correctly. Without a defined residence, the second clock has nothing to compare against and stays hidden even if the toggle is on.

To turn it on, go to Tap on SettingsTap on Additional settingsTap on Date & timeTap on Dual clockEnable or disable Dual clockSet the Usual residence and Display Dual Clock On.

From the same screen you also choose where the second clock appears: on the lock screen, the home screen, or both. If you only need it while traveling, limit it to the lock screen so your home screen widgets keep their usual layout.

Dual clock has no meaningful effect on battery life since it only updates a static time value. If the second time still looks wrong after setup, check that your usual residence location matches your actual home time zone, not your current one.

Frequently asked questions

Check that the display option for the lock screen is turned on inside Dual clock settings. The toggle for enabling dual clock and the toggle for choosing where it shows are separate.
