Would be happy to look into this issue. Could you use the "Email support@swaystairs.com" link from the About page to send Email? This will help in debugging.Great for a clock on an old iPad
This app is great to turn and old iPad into a clock. I would have given 5 stars if the settings held. I really want to turn off the seconds and plug in warning. Other than that, it looks great and is perfect for my needs.sh_cincy

Not worth anything higher than a one star without a widgetWarrior1960
Developer Response
Thanks for taking a look at bnClock. While adding a widget is an interesting idea, the original goal of bnClock (bn == Big Numbers) was to display the largest possible digits on your device. A widget doesn't really support this goal.Fabulous!
Great way to use the old iPad 2 that can’t be updated beyond iPad OS 9. Makes for a nice, big numeral click that I can see at night without glasses. Well done interface. Does what I need without needing to log into an external site or someone keeping track of my device. Free to use, but I’d gladly pay to support the developer.Show lesstreynolds57
Great app but the current temperature is not updated timingly
I like it, but the newest version keep crashing on my ios9.3.5 old iPad. Could you please help out? Thanks a lot! I use the iPad as a hanging wall clock with weather. It has been a cool thingFlytoood
Developer Response
Hopefully the crashing on some iOS devices running 9.3.5 is fixed with version 5.1.3. The documentation describes how to get the weather to update every 10 minutes. Please check Help under "Weather" and "More frequent weather updates"My favorite clock/alarm
There are so many things I like about this clock.
1. Big easy to read numbers. My vision is 20:15, but when you first wake up, it takes a minute to focus. That’s not a problem with this clock.
2. Snoozing. On other clock apps and Alexa, the snooze button is a very small area. On this clock app, the whole face is the snooze button. Many clocks have a fixed snooze time. This app gives you a wide choice of snoozing times, and you can customize them for each alarm.
3. Compatibility. I use this on my iPhone 12 as my alarm clock. I also have it on a very old iPad with the inch wide connector. This is the only digital clock I could find that still runs on it. I use this as a wall clock in my ham radio shack/office. It’s a nice way to repurpose an otherwise useless piece of tech.
4. Weather. It nice to see a synopsis of the weather for the week. One thing that bugs me. If you have the weather showing, the current temperature does not seem to update. It may be something in my setup, but it happens on my all my devices. If you close it and restart it, it does update the current temperature.Show lessWingrider56

Thanks for the glowing review! Regarding the current temperature not updating - this is normal behavior. If you create your own private OpenWeatherMap API key (use the "Obtain OpenWeatherMap api key" link in the weather settings), the current temperature (and forecast) will update about every 10 minutes.Settings don’t hold, spacing of settings
This app works well but has two problems that I frequently encounter:
1. The brightness settings don’t hold. I usually keep the display dim, but it frequently changes back to the brightest setting, which is disturbing when it suddenly lights up a very dark room.
2. The location of the menu and the spacing of the menu items are very close together, especially if you have large fingers. Plus the “Done” button at the bottom of the settings is too close to the bezel of a phone.Show lessNMBioguy
Developer Response
Thanks for using bnClock and thanks for the feedback - we'll take a look at both items. Do you have brightness set to change at sunset/sunrise? Or, set to be constant? Please contact support@swaystairs.com directly so we can continue the discussion.Alarm is a joke
Alarm doesn’t work unless the phones plugged in! Not always an option, especially off grid!nothing ringing
Developer Response
This is news to us. It works on our test devices. If you could contact us at support@swaystairs.com, hopefully we could figure out why it doesn't work with your setup.
