UPDATE TO MY PREVIOUS REVIEW

Apparently the update loaded and fixed the inability to sound the alarm on my Xs Max. Now the only issue is that the mute switch kills it. When I go to sleep I’m not always of the right sound of mind to remember to turn that darn thing on. Otherwise I really do like the non-ad version of this clock.

Used to be my FAVORITE

Hello:
I really loved the look of this app, and used it every night as my bedside clock because it was so attractively designed.
Please, please consider bringing back the former design from before the last update!!
(***Bold lines for each hour, lines instead of dots for minutes, red second hand, date shown; AND I believe in an even older version, the lines also stretched all the way to the edge of the screen, instead of being shaped in any type of circle at all, making it more of a beautiful, designer-looking analogue timepiece.)
I would pay for it in the old format.
Thank you! 🙏🏼

Don’t rely on it

It’s a beautiful analog clock face and a really nice concept. However, as others have noted, alarm will not sound if you have muted your phone. This has happened to me a few times. I’ve fallen asleep with my phone’s volume set to 0, or the mute button engaged; in the morning, no alarm. The app could warn you, even if it can’t -like other good clock apps- override the volume setting.

Personally I think it’s worse than this. The app also puts a “wake up” notification on the lock screen. Sometimes I don’t even get that, so I’m wondering if it’s not always the volume thing. I’m starting to suspect that this app just fails randomly.

It’s a beautiful clock, just don’t rely on the alarm.

Reduced clock face number size

I’ve used this app for more than a year now and have loved it...until the last update when the clock face was updated. What I loved about it was the large clock numbers that I could read without my glasses in the middle of the night.

The latest update has shrunk them considerably, with no option to control how I view it.

Update: The clock face has been reverted back to the black-and-white with larger numerals, which I love! Thank you for making this update and I’ve updated my review accordingly.

Used to love the app

This app was great,it’s the only clock that is truly black , not dark grey when in at my bedside. Unfortunately the new changes make both the minuet hand and second hand, very close in size but worse yet, with the clock dimmed, it’s difficult to see the new green hand. I wish there were an option to change the color back to white
