### 5/5 — Awesome

*2025-01-28, version 1.3.2*

Great when you half way blind

### 5/5 — Wow

*2024-12-11, version 1.3.2*

Yea I only downloaded this because basically everyone has it in my school but I’m surprised that you made this because your a small time creater

### 5/5 — App Perfection

*2022-10-06, version 1.3.1*

This app does exactly what it says it will. This is a fantastic piece of software I’ve used for years. Thank you.

### 5/5 — Simple and clear but...

*2021-03-22, version 1.3.1*

I’m a broadcast videographer. We still use SMPTE time code for many shooting and syncing operations and use “time of day” time code setting. This app allows me a quick glance at the exact time to the second to set the various TC generators on my camera and other devices. Very helpful!

One little note, It’s not “savings time” as noted on your app. To be correct it should be “saving time” as in “Daylight Saving Time”. 

Regardless, a great simple app.

### 4/5 — Can't change date format

*2021-03-03, version 1.3.1*

Date uses American format. Please use the format for the location, or better still, add an app setting so that we can choose.

Been using this app to set and adjust my mechanical watches for years. It’s perfect: no annoying popup ads, no overlong list of unecessary features, just the time down to the second and a heads-up for time changes.

### 5/5 — Great and simple

*2020-05-17, version 1.3*
