### 3/5 — Simple and more simple

*2025-03-15, version 2.2*

App does what’s described. Would have loved a .99 cent paid version that allows you to get rid of the digital time. It takes up too Much space, making the analog clock too
Small. also can’t seem to locate the auto dimming of the clock, but when I do I hope it has time frames that can be set to dim the back
Light during the night time. Also, a variety of clock faces would be wonderful.  This clock has a lot of potential. Hope the creator see
This feed back. Thank you!

### 3/5 — Not bad

*2018-05-03, version 2.0*

Looking for a bedside clock I can leave on at night when travelling, this is good but find it a little too bright for sleeping, even on the darkest colour.

### 5/5 — Perfect

*2015-10-21, version 1.5*

Just what I was looking for, thank you 😃

### 5/5 — The best

*2015-07-11, version 1.5*

I have been using this app for over 6 months - it's is the best apple clock by far - thank you for developing it!!

### 5/5 — Great for night use

*2015-06-17, version 1.3*

I love this clock!  It solves the problem of my iPhone blinding me when I check the time at night.

### 5/5 — Cool beside clock

*2015-06-02, version 1.3*

Thanks

### 1/5 — What Happened to Landscape View?

*2026-05-31, version 2.2*

This app used to have landscape view so when I plug in the charging cable I can have it on my nightstand working all night. What happened? I have an iPhone 13 Pro Max.

### 1/5 — Home bar issue

*2018-11-02, version 2.0*

Doesn't hide the home bar on iPhone X

### 1/5 — DO NOT USE

*2016-12-13, version 1.7*

Causes screen burn I can still see the clock on my screen hours after turning the app off

### 1/5 — looks good but school boy error

*2015-10-29, version 1.5*

does not rotate so cant charge ipad and use app at same time unless i purchase a dock

### 1/5 — Go back to Version 1

*2014-12-11*

I loved the color options: red clock hands and time did not effect the eyes at night. Now I have to really dim the brightness on the phone to reduce the white hands glare. And what is with the small 24 hour clock?  Should not complain about a free app but this change was for the worse.

### 1/5 — I HATE THE UPDATE!!

*2014-12-03, version 1.1*

This was a perfect bedside clock I used constantly!!  Now the numbers are small ugly grayscale and in 24 hour format. No choice of color!!!  Too small!!  
PLEASE PUT IT BACK THE WAY IT WAS!!!!!
The update has rendered this app useless!!!  HELP!!!

### 2/5 — George

*2025-04-11, version 2.2*

How do I change the time on this clock ?

### 2/5 — Burn in

*2024-05-11, version 2.2*

Great app, but unfortunately caused burn in on my iPhone 14+.

### 2/5 — Almost very good

*2022-10-27, version 2.2*

The red displays are clear, well done, and non-sleep disturbing illumination. BUT the bright white line at the bottom is too bright and kills the usefulness.

### 2/5 — Shuts Down

*2017-04-21, version 1.7*

The bedside alarm clock will randomly close in the middle of the night. It did not happen at first, but after A couple weeks of repeated use it started happening daily.

### 5/5 — Almost perfect

*2024-01-09, version 2.2*

The only thing I could ask for is weather beside the time. Minimalist. It’s great.

### 5/5 — Does the job well!

*2017-11-12, version 2.0*

Really like the app which is the closest to the native Blackberry bedside clock i used to use that I’ve found on IOS. Only snag I’ve found is it seems to disrupt auto lock on IOS 11.0.3. After closing Bedside Clock down in the morning my phone doesn’t auto lock anymore.

### 5/5 — Just like my Blackberry nite mode clock ...

*2017-09-03, version 2.0*

Ever sense I lost the use of my beloved Blackberry and Night Clock, I've looked for an Apple iPhone clock that was as non-intrusive. Now, I have it! Thank muchly.

### 5/5 — Simple & I love it!

*2017-07-03, version 2.0*

I'd love an option to use only Analog or Digital though, but it's fine the way it is!

### 5/5 — Clock!

*2017-06-28, version 2.0*

Hot diggity, it's a clock!  Now it's better than ever, with improved colour selections.  This simple clock stands silent vigil over any sleepy head.  I especially like the dual analog and digital display.  And with its 24hour display, it's a lovely screensaver mode for any occasion superior to other options out there.

Add an alarm and some font options, and this clock would be well nigh perfection.

### 5/5 — Simple and does the job

*2017-04-16, version 1.7*

I see mention in a previous review of screen burn. Wondering whether that's a particular phone generation issue as I have no such burn on my iPhone 7, been using for three nights now.

### 5/5 — Three words - •Simple•Brilliant•Intelligent 👍🏼

*2016-10-17, version 1.6*

Download meow 🐱! You will not regret it

### 5/5 — Perfect!

*2016-07-21, version 1.6*

Simple, beautiful, does what it says.

### 5/5 — Useful

*2016-04-22, version 1.6*

Does what it is billed for.

### 5/5 — Does what it says

*2015-11-03, version 1.5*

This is nice and simple. Many thanks! It would me even better if we could elect to hide the digital clock. The Simplicity of the analog clock face is really nice and the numbers beneath it detract from this.
