Good

Enabled background app refresh and syncs with current time.

Perfect Complication!

Love this little complication and it's ability to show a digital time while using some of the gorgeous analog watch faces. I can read analog time, but it's not instant, even after all these years. So having the digital time is perfect for when I need the watch to tell time.
A note- if you upgrade your watch, you'll have to re-download the complication from the app store on the watch itself. Still works great in iOS 18 & WatchOS 11.
Thank you dev!

Sanity Saver

I’m 78 and 72 years ago I spent 18 long months learning to tell time by reading clocks and watches - digital time didn’t exist. I continually pestered my parents to tell me my guessing was correct - rarely was it. That’s why I use the California face - I earned it. The problem is my three “fill-in” jobs, each have different hours and days. There are times I wake to dusk or dawn, look at my watch and don’t know which it is - until now! I have a VALUABLE complication “TimeGlance”. Set to 24 hour time I now know day from night. Thank you, perveyors of TimeGlance!

Great app

Wonderful app. I’ve been trying to become proficient in using 24 hour time and this is perfect as a training too. Could we maybe get some bigger font sizes for those of us than need reading glasses?

Great but with major issue currently

Love the complication, can’t believe it’s not part of the normal Apple offering. Of late the time seems to stick and only updates when you tap on it. I’ll have to uninstall until fixed.

Stopped Working

The complication worked for a minute after I installed it on my watch running watchOS 9.5, then just showed the app name or a frozen time. While the customization interface in the app was well designed, changes did not update the complication. Perhaps the developer will return to this and make it functional again, but for now it simply doesn’t work.

Perfect

It does what it needs to do easily and allows multiple variations

So far exactly what I wanted

Edit: I’ve been using this app for ages with no problems whatsoever, but it seems like a recent update has caused it to become glitchy. The time is not updating and I never know if it’s right or not so I deleted it! I work at a hospital and can’t get my times wrong. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Original review: Just downloaded, but so far this is the perfect app for my needs! Seems like this should come automatically from Apple, but I’m not sure they’d have done as nice and neat of a job as this developer. Clean app, easy to use from the watch, very customizable, just perfect. Would love to see more color options in the future, but the ones provided are nice.

Just the date

Wish you had the option of hiding the time as well & having custom texts options on the date like Saturday 1/12/23 etc, 3 stars for now will bump up when these features are considered

Can’t access the app

So the app in the store just says “purchased”. I can’t find it on my phone or on my watch. Unusable. Waste of money.
