### 3/5 — Stops Keeping Time

*2026-08-03, version 2.6*

Would be great if I didn’t have to double check the accuracy of the current time. I don’t know why this randomly happens, but is there a way to fix it?

### 4/5 — デジタル時計を表示させることができ、便利だがまれに止まる。

*2026-04-27*

最近このアプリをダウンロードし、１週間ほど使った感想です。
私は文字盤はアナログ時計にしており、デジタル時計に比べて一目で今何時何分なのか分かりづらい事を解消する為にこのアプリをダウンロードしました。

文字盤にのせて、時間の表示もまあ見やすいくらいかな？くらいの大きさで特に不便なく使用していたのですが、まれに時間が止まる事がある。
まれになのだが、それが少し気になります。
体感２日３日に一回あるか無いかなので、気にしなければ気にせず使用できる程の頻度です。
ですが、もし修正、止まらないように改良出来るならして頂けると助かります。

ただ止まるからといってもこのアプリは使いやすいと思うので、これからも使いたいと思っております。

### 4/5 — いまのところ普通

*2026-02-25*

普通

### 2/5 — アップデートお願いします。

*2025-12-14*

iPhoneのアップデート後に最新の時間で更新されなくなった。
いちいち更新するのがめんどい。

### 3/5 — I love it but

*2025-10-30, version 2.6*

I love it but the only problem I have is the time doesn’t always sync I’ll go to check the time and it won’t be updated this happens several times a day and I don’t have low power mode on it’s really frustrating

### 3/5 — リアルタイムでは無い

*2025-10-06*

watchOS18までは、問題なかったのですが、watchOS26にしてから反映されないことが多々起こるようになりました。
非常に重宝しているので、早く修正していただきたいです。
よろしくお願いします。

### 2/5 — Used to work

*2025-04-09, version 2.6*

He used to work great, but since the iOS update it no longer consistently keeps time sometimes I look at the complication and it is a few hours behind. I know it’s probably not the developers issue but rather iOS power saving. But it defeats the purpose of this app. Will change the review if fixed - thanks!

### 2/5 — Thank you for making this!

*2024-09-07, version 2.6*

Was great for years—but now frequently freezes up for hours and hours—making the time always wrong. Maybe Apple WatchOS changed something?

### 3/5 — Bien mais ne se rafraîchit pas parfois

*2024-07-09*

Au début cela fonctionnait parfaitement mais depuis la dernière maj watchOS (il me semble), il arrive régulièrement que l’heure ne se rafraichisse pas. Ça perd alors tout son intérêt :/

### 3/5 — Sometimes I see it and the time is not right, perhaps because it is not running in the background.

Sometimes I see it and the time is not right, perhaps because it is not running in the background.

### 3/5 — great most of the time

*2024-04-29, version 2.6*

i love it. it add a simple glance when i need it. only problem is. when i take the watch off and put it back on. it doesn’t update so i have to open it and change the time back and forth. other than that it works fine.

### 1/5 — Very Small

*2024-02-15, version 2.6*

The font is hard to read. The same or worse than the native world time complication. It was on $1 and that was too much. Try something else and save your money. Wish I had.

### 1/5 — Was good

*2026-05-16, version 2.6*

Needs updating. Time gets stuck and can’t get the complication to refresh.

### 1/5 — No updates

*2026-01-09, version 2.6*

This app was absolutely perfect, but but it hasn't been updated in years. Gets stick on a time

### 1/5 — Broken in ios26

*2025-09-23, version 2.6*

This app is no longer working in ios26 - gets stuck and stops telling the time, which are kinda essential functions for a time app. Developer has not updated app for over a year. Do not purchase until developer fixes this app.

### 1/5 — Needs fixed

*2025-09-21, version 2.6*

I used to love this app until iOS 26. Now it’s constantly getting stuck like a broken clock. The only way to temporarily fix it is to tap on the complication. This completely defeats the purpose. The bug has bit me in the butt too many times now. I keep thinking it’s way earlier than what it really is. What a shame.

### 1/5 — Time synchronization not working well

*2025-05-16*

This symptom of time not being synchronized happens quite often. I hope it gets fixed soon since I paid.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t stay updated.

*2025-04-13, version 2.6*

This is a great idea but poor execution. The complication doesn’t show the accurate time. It’s always stuck in the past. Save your money.

### 1/5 — complication doesn’t show up after latest update

*2025-02-06, version 2.6*

been using for years, occasionally the time doesn’t update until you tap on it to refresh.

complication doesn’t show up after the last update for some reason

### 1/5 — Time does not update

*2024-12-11, version 2.6*

Useless app, sometimes it  stops updating the time.

### 1/5 — 遅い

*2024-11-30*

時刻の反映が遅すぎる。いちいち開き直さないと修正されないのですぐに見たい時に致命的。お勧めしない

### 1/5 — 没啥用

*2024-07-09*

没啥用，更新不及时，有的时候时间会停滞，要点进去退出才能更新，不值这个钱

### 5/5 — Useful

*2025-01-04, version 2.6*

Pretty great for adding digital time wherever you want it

### 5/5 — Good

*2024-11-27, version 2.6*

Enabled background app refresh and syncs with current time.

### 5/5 — THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!

*2024-10-17, version 2.6*

perfect

### 5/5 — Perfect Complication!

*2024-09-23, version 2.6*

Love this little complication and it's ability to show a digital time while using some of the gorgeous analog watch faces. I can read analog time, but it's not instant, even after all these years. So having the digital time is perfect for when I need the watch to tell time.
A note- if you upgrade your watch, you'll have to re-download the complication from the app store on the watch itself. Still works great in iOS 18 & WatchOS 11.
Thank you dev!

### 5/5 — Sanity Saver

*2024-07-28, version 2.6*

I’m 78 and 72 years ago I spent 18 long months learning to tell time by reading clocks and watches - digital time didn’t exist. I continually pestered my parents to tell me my guessing was correct - rarely was it. That’s why I use the California face - I earned it. The problem is my three “fill-in” jobs, each have different hours and days. There are times I wake to dusk or dawn, look at my watch and don’t know which it is - until now! I have a VALUABLE complication “TimeGlance”. Set to 24 hour time I now know day from night. Thank you, perveyors of TimeGlance!

### 5/5 — 地味だけどすごく便利

*2024-07-27*

アナログ文字盤内にデジタル時刻も配置しておきたいという時にかなり重宝します。
純正の世界時計コンプリケーションでは東京とかの地名まで付いてたりそもそも置けなかったり中途半端なので…。
日付標準できるアプリは他にもありますが日にちと曜日のみといった必要最小限の表示ができるのも視認性が良くてわかりやすいです。
ただ、左上には時刻のみ、右上には日付のみといった表示振り分けはできないのが残念なので
表示パターンを複数作れるようになったり、時刻のみや日付のみにした際に配置枠内の限界まで大きく表示されるようになってくれれば嬉しいです。

### 5/5 — Pratique, efficace

*2024-05-17*

Tout est dans le titre, juste ce que je recherchais.
Merci à l'éditeur.

### 5/5 — Great app

*2024-03-27, version 2.6*

Wonderful app. I’ve been trying to become proficient in using 24 hour time and this is perfect as a training too.  Could we maybe get some bigger font sizes for those of us than need reading glasses?

### 5/5 — Good for me

*2023-05-30, version 2.5*

Perfect for me. This app takes the place of 2 complication apps therefore freeing up a complication space on my watch. Pretty nice to also have settings to customize. I like it-GOOd FOR ME!

### 5/5 — awesome

*2023-05-04, version 2.5*

about once per day the digital clock stops updating ... even though i have background activated for the app.-update: after rebooting the watch it got fixed!
