Now an extra step added…why make something that is perfect more complicated??? Also, in last 3-4 days the time is broken, only the hour shows but no minutes visible??? It looks like this 10: … Please fix these issues, please? Thank you, I loved my digital clock prior to these issues. I hope I can love it again! Frances **Developer response:** I’m deeply sorry for the frustration this update has caused. I recently made a major update to support more themes and new features, and unfortunately it introduced issues that affected some existing functionality, including the automatic portrait/landscape rotation and the clock display. I know many people, like you, have been using this app for years, and I truly regret that this update disrupted something you relied on every day. That was never my intention. I’m actively working on an update to restore the experience and fix these issues as quickly as possible. Thank you for taking the time to report them and for your patience. I sincerely appreciate your support over the years, and I hope to earn back your trust with the next update. ### 3/5 — Покупать кота в мешке? *2025-11-21* Нельзя заранее увидеть что даст покупка ### 3/5 — It works but very limited for an app I paid for *2025-06-25* The digital clock is great for a night light clock. I can adjust the brightness, color and transparency of the display to suit my needs. The instructions for use are very sparse and somewhat confusing. ### 2/5 — Sucks *2024-12-14* The only reason I got this was to put on my home screen, and I can’t so I think it sucks ### 3/5 — I really like this clock BUT… *2024-12-06* I really like this clock, but it has two drawbacks, it has a reminder option, but I don’t know how it works. I was hoping that it was an alarm. I really would ulike have an alarm on it and also I would like to have a way to adjust the brightness within the app instead you have to leave the app and adjust the brightness from the phone settings ### 3/5 — I really like this clock BUT… *2024-11-11* I really like this clock, but it has two drawbacks, it has a reminder option, but I don’t know how it works.

It’s a nuisance and it’s very bright at night. ### 2/5 — Clock *2024-04-23, version 1.1.4* It’s clock would b grand if I’d stay FREE without having payyyyy ### 5/5 — Best digital clock *2024-03-20* The only thing that would make this clock perfect would be to eliminate the white bar. It’s a nuisance and it’s very bright at night. ### 4/5 — Art Studio Clock *2024-02-09* Love the app. Does exactly what it claims. Is it possible to update the app with a kinetic display to avoid screen burn? ### 5/5 — Orologio digitale *2023-12-12, version 1.1.4* Ottimo peccato però che non segni il livello della batteria ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — I really like this clock BUT not any more *2026-07-03, version 1..1.9* I really liked this clock until it got updated.Now some of the functionality is no longer available. I can no longer use any color that I want on any background color. I like using dark red or dark blue on a black background so it wouldn’t keep me awake on my bed stand. Also it really it really needs a wake up alarm ### 1/5 — Problem Minutes not shown on iPhone 13 *2026-06-29* Version 1..1.9 ??? App paid **Developer response:** I’m very sorry for the inconvenience. I’ll submit an update as soon as possible to address this issue. If you could kindly contact us via email, I’ll personally make sure we resolve it and ensure you have a top-notch experience.

Не могли бы вы уточнить, какой виджет вы имеете в виду? Это приложение является приложением для часов и в настоящее время не поддерживает виджеты. Приносим извинения за причиненные неудобства. ### 1/5 — Soldi buttati via *2024-03-22, version 1.1.4* Vero ### 1/5 — Swipe bar ruins the app *2023-12-04* I hate I purchased the upgrade. The white apple “swipe up to close’ bar at the bottom is way too bright. Other than this flaw it would be near perfect, however this flaw completely ruins the whole app. Makes it useless to me. ### 1/5 — Swipe bar ruins the app *2023-10-31* I hate I purchased the upgrade.

Yet so soft, not bright at all, very unobtrusive AND great background sounds! The best app. **Developer response:** Thank you so much. ### 5/5 — New portrait to landscape *2026-06-01* Love this app but I don’t know why the rotation from portrait to landscape changed. You now have to hit a button that changes it instead of just rotating your phone. I use this as my gym clock since it has seconds on it but I often rotate my phone and find this change cumbersome. ### 5/5 — Lembrete *2026-02-19* Bom dia, o relógio ele não desperta, pra que serve o lembrete? ### 5/5 — Edd Gray *2026-01-30* The Digital Clock is making a horrible sound as it changes seconds. I would like not to hear that. **Developer response:** Hi I think your white noise sound is enabled, you can go the tab to deselect it. If you need helped please contact me I will guide you through! ### 5/5 — Love it *2026-01-02, version 1.1.4* The best digital clock ever ### 5/5 — Hand hmmm *2025-12-29, version 1.1.4* Go ### 5/5 — Clean and simple *2024-09-12* Easy to setup with clear options. I wish it could control brightness. ### 5/5 — Clean and simple *2024-08-19* Easy to setup with clear options ### 5/5 — Edd Gray *2024-06-19* The Digital Clock is making a horrible sound as it changes seconds.
