### 5/5 — Zen clock is better

*2026-05-18*

This is a good digital clock app but I prefer zen clock.

### 5/5 — A lot potential

*2026-04-28*

The app itself has a lot to make it even greater, but thats only up to the devs, keep adding more features like adding an integrated calendar on the app while keeping its optimization

### 5/5 — iPad Mini perfect

*2026-02-24*

I have been looking for a simple clock widget that allowed for larger screens such as the iPad mini. This app solved it. The paid version allows for further customization such as font style and color. Only thing I would like to see is more color options or being able to set by hex code for perfect match beyond just one shade of color. Other than that I’m very happy with the simplicity and size options for the widget.

### 5/5 — Do it

*2024-02-26*

Gulp my nuts clean

### 5/5 — Perfect digital clock for standby

*2023-12-02*

Not sure why the other review says it doesn’t work (probably a competitor), it works perfectly. Just as is shown in the app preview pictures, it adds a digital clock widget that can be used in standby, or any place a widget can be added in iOS. Shame on apple for not providing this basic option, and props to this developer for providing this for free WITHOUT trying to steal lots of my data or changing a monthly fee.

### 1/5 — Not really a Standby / Nightstand app

*2023-10-09*

Succinctly put, lacks clock face choices the fits look like something from a cheap document creator. Was expecting better.

### 4/5 — Not bad but…

*2023-09-28*

There is a small bug in standby The hour widget display changes to another widget after a while and you have to scroll up or down to get it back. I prefer to keep auto lock disabled so the display disappears. Hope this will be fixed in the next update and the developer sees my review and is aware of the bug.  Apart from that a good app to also use  for standby

**Developer response:** You need to disable both Smart Rotate and Widget Suggestions for that half of the widget view in StandBy mode or else the system will automatically change the widget to the other widgets when it feels like it. This is how StandBy mode works and is not a bug in my app. You can change these settings by going to the widget edit screen where you can edit/add widgets to StandBy and is a settings for both the left and right sides. Hope this helps.

### 5/5 — Nice simple and works as a widget!

*2023-09-13*

That’s all I wanted! A big icon size widget that tells the time digitally.  I hate analog hand clocks and this app delivers!
