Simple.

Simple. Perfect.

No features

I thought this would be similar to Hamclock on Linus,pi etc…. It’s not. It’s just clocks and a map… thank goodness only wasted 99p

Local 12 hour time is stuck on 24 Hour Time

Hi Ben,

Can you please fix the local 12 hour time so it reflects AM/PM and not 24 hour time?

Thanks in advance!

Response from developer

That should be fixed now! It would happen if your phone itself was set to display 24H, but it takes that into account now.

Not the real ham click app!

Kinda worthless.

No UTC on Watch

Really? I bought this app to see UTC on the Apple Watch. But no, only grid squares.

Response from developer

The latest version now shows UTC time and grid square on Apple Watch! Thanks for the feedback.

Ok but not customizable

No way to make the time larger, to hide the map portion, or to use it in landscape mode. I would like to set it up in landscape as a large UTC clock, with time remaining on the screen after the phone goes to “sleep” but it doesn’t support this.

Response from developer

The latest update gives you a larger clock in portrait mode, but I kept the map because I like to see the gray line. I may add customization in the future, thanks for the feedback.

Nice App

I really like this app! Love the grid square feature. Would love to be able to see UTC time on my Apple Watch, not just the grid square.

Response from developer

The latest update now shows UTC time on Apple Watch! Thanks!

Basic and Useful

I love this app. I often just use it to get the time but for ham radio operating it’s an easy way to get UTC. (Sometimes I get confused about the time shift due to daylight saving time and Ham Clock always has it right.) It is also great for checking grid locator.

Perfect - no clutter or overkill

Thanks for this wonderful app that puts the time
formats I need in easy, clear view. Excellent for mobile monitoring trips or just on screen in my
station for logs.
Thanks!

Great app for field use

App works great and love having it. I use it when portable and in field. Good job Ben!

Total rubbish. Save your money.

No way of selecting the 24hr clock.
It’s stuck on the 12 hr system.
No setting option or developer contact option.
Than goodness I’ve only wasted 99p.

Very useful app

I find this app to be invaluable when operating in the field. The user interface is very “clean” and easy to read when glancing at the phone.

The new grid square feature and map is interesting but without a text search feature for addresses it’s of minimal value. I’d ask that the GPS coordinates field be restored. I frequently used the GPS coordinates to enter my location data on other apps or during web searches.

Useful for portable ops

I like this app for portable operations away from the shack. The redesign of the UI is very nice!

I noticed one issue. The 12H local time on my phone shows 24H time. My phone is set to 24H. Not a big deal, but thought you might like to know it’s off.

Horrible Update

Been using the app for years. It had all the basic info you needed. The latest update added the useless map and removed the GPS coordinates from the display. App is useless to me now.

12hr format not working in latest update

No other way to get a hold of you to tell you

Great App

Use with satellite passes to keep track of time. Great app!

Watch component does not work

The icon on the Apple Watch is just a gray, featureless circle. More important, the WTch app does not display the grid square or location.

Very nice update. I love this App. Use it everyday. Thank You

mostly works but......

there is a bug in the clock software. At my qth, in QG62ll, sunrise is said to be at 1.25pm, and sunset at 5.13pm (this IS correct) A very short day indeed for Brisbane!

Thank you

Nice app and I like the format. Please fix the maidenhead grid. It does ask to use the location but continues to display ENxxxx. So Ben, if two customers like it and both mention an issue, I guess the best response is none.
