A sundial doesn't work at night.
A sundial doesn't work when the sun is hidden - by clouds, buildings, etc.
A sundial only works at the latitude it is designed for - a sundial built for Ecuador woudl not be accurate in New Zealand.

Explanation:
Although the Sundial is very simple to make and to use, it also has many disadvantages. A Sundial is no longer accurate after a month. This is because the obliquity of Earth causes the 'path' of the Sun to change over the months. The same Sundial cannot be used in two different places
hope it helps
