Premium upgrade is worthwhile
However, a solution is to upgrade to the premium version with a one-time purchase of $6 (in year 2024), which eliminates the ads. To me, this is a small price to pay for quality software.
This program is very good; it's just the sort of replacement for which I was looking. (After having upgraded my old iPhone to a new model, I then discovered that my old third-party clock application was no longer available.)
By the way, after noticing that this new (to me) "The Clocks" program permits the dimming or brightening of the display, but does so in an uneven fashion, there is a built-in solution . It's to change the setting called "Brightness Control" from "Hardware" to "Software". Then the process of swiping to dim or brighten becomes smooth (rather than jerky).
Thanks for the nice application.
Stupid ads
Trouble playing own music on app
Response from developer
We apologize for the inconvenience. To use the music alarm feature, you first need to download music from the iPhone's Music app. Music can only be selected if it is already downloaded onto your phone. If you'd like to use your own MP3 files as a music alarm, you'll need to upload the MP3 files to the Apple Music cloud via iTunes, and then download them using the iPhone's Music app. We understand that the process may seem a bit complicated, but this is due to technical limitations of iOS, and we appreciate your understanding. Thank you.

Simple, Perfect.
I use it nearly daily to set whatever mechanical watch I’m waring that day, I have… a few. It’s an old, more sedate, & purposeful start to the day. Shower, shave, dress, take the watch, check & polish if needed, wind, set, & put it on.
A man is ready to do battle with the day’s challenges.
Like my father… wrist watch;
His father… wrist & pocket watch;
And his father… pocket watch.
It is connection.
