Feature request: add timezone property

Love places!

I was wondering if you had any plans to add timezone data on result? That would be a nice feature.

could be something like

"timezone": {
  "name": "Pacific Time Zone",
  "abbrev": "PST",
  "utc_difference": -8
}

What do you think?

Hey 👋

Thanks for all your comments!

For my app I am using the really simplistic API from timezonedb to get timezone and then moment-timezone npm package to convert time. I could share an example when I am done, for people with a similar need.

In terms of use case, I think it could be useful for smart notifications, sending emails to the customer when it’s the right time for them. Or if you imagine a similar experience to the Slack Do not Disturb, based on timezone. Any app that is global, and needs to say when users are “available”. Like a video conference app.

Also, that’s one less field to ask for in a user form. So better overall experience.

This could be an optional parameter, you don’t to return it every time.

Thanks

Thanks for ping.

Unfortunately, I come with bad news. While we would like to support as many use cases as possible, we don’t have plans to implement this feature in the foreseeable future. I am therefore closing this issue.
