Replaces my Weems and Plath
My Weems and Plath clock failed, ringing the incorrect number of bells, and they would not do anything to fix it. So I bought this and put it on an unused iPhone.
The bell sounds are far superior to any app, and actually are better than the chiming ship’s clock, much to my surprise.
I do have an Apple watch, unfortunately, as the app developer noted, the clock will not chime on my current iPhone if it is connected to the watch.
That’s my only complaint.russ_palmeri
