Citation please? According to Android the current one is the valid one.

Hi,
The link you provide belongs to a personal site.
Do you think 0 directly going to 13 is correct?

Please check the native Android time picker.
What do you mean by 00 going directly to 13 - do you mean followed by?
Isn't it the same offset as 24 followed by 13?

But I asked you for some citation/material specification to back up you claim. Please provide.

The perception of time differs from country to country I guess.

Intuitively, it feels like:

Android's native clock starts at 00:01 and finishes at 00:00 (midnight)
Bigradish's clock starts at 00:00 and finishes at 23:59

PROS Bigradish's clock actually makes more sense to me from a logical point of view, because the 0 that comes after 23 in Android's clock is actually the first hour of the next day in my opinion, so that's confusing. If it's supposed to be the first hour of the current day, then why does it come after 23 and before 13, it does not make sense.
And mathematically the figure 0 does come after 23 nor does it come before 13, so even visually yes it's a bit strange.

CON On a 12hour clock, the number at the top is 12 (at least that's what I have always seen), so I understand that Android's developers wanted to keep it that way on a 24h clock too.

My preference, for what it's worth, goes to Bigradish's clock, as I prefer logic to the habit of keeping 12 at the top. But once again, the preference may change from a country to another, and probably not everyone agrees on the same thing in a same country...
