At present, when party A wants to make a call, he must judge whether it is suitable to make a call according to party B's local time. Therefore, it is very important to know the current local time of party B. If party B is at two o'clock in the morning, unless The situation is urgent, otherwise party A may consider calling party B at another time, and because party A and party B are in different time zones, party A must spend a lot of time to calculate party B's local time by himself, so Difficulty and inconvenience caused by time zone calculation
[0004] The current existing methods and devices are not enough to enable party A to quickly and correctly know the local time of party B, therefore, obviously, new methods and devices need to be provided to determine the local time of party B

Abstract

A method for displaying entries of a contact list on a first communication device is disclosed. The method includes: associating at least a specific time zone with an entry in the contact list; and when the entry is referenced, determining a specific local time associated with the entry according to a local time of the communication device, the specific time zone, and a time zone of the first communication device, and displaying the specific local time. Therefore, before making a call, user can determine whether it is appropriate to call the receiver based on local time of the receiver displayed on communication device at the time.
