Clockinator Pro turns timekeeping into a gallery of living artwork. Instead of a single, static clock, your screen becomes a rotating exhibition of illustrated clock faces created by artists from around the world. Every design is built with care and personality, transforming the simple act of checking the time into something visually delightful. The heart of Clockinator Pro is its artwork. Each clock face is a miniature art piece, ranging from cozy woven styles inspired by traditional wool blankets, playful characters like gnomes, snowmen, masks, butterflies, and even storybook creatures. Some clocks drift through misty highland landscapes, others glow with cosmic energy, and many bring a touch of whimsy and warmth that feels right at home in a living space or creative studio. New artwork is constantly arriving from artists all over the world. Clockinator Pro introduces new clock faces at a steady pace of roughly three to four per month, so the gallery is always growing. Over time, the collection expands with fresh styles, seasonal themes, and imaginative designs, giving you new pieces to discover and enjoy throughout the year. The clocks themselves feel alive. Gentle motion, subtle animation, and carefully designed supporting effects add sparkle, movement, and personality without distracting from the time. Pendulums swing, characters move, and small animated details bring each design to life in its own unique way. Whether it is quietly keeping time in your workspace, rotating through a growing gallery of illustrated designs, or acting as a public display clock in a shared space, Clockinator Pro celebrates both time and creativity. It is a clock, a canvas, and a continually expanding collection of art all in one place. • More than 170 unique animated clock faces • New clock faces added regularly • Seasonal and holiday collections throughout the year • Build Set Lists of your favorite clocks • Schedule clock faces to change automatically • Beautiful full-screen presentation • Visual alarms and countdowns • No subscriptions—buy a clock once and keep it forever Designed specifically for macOS, iPhone, and iPad, Clockinator Pro feels right at home across Apple’s ecosystem. No Subscription Required, Purchase only the clock faces you want, and they’re yours to keep. For the price of a few clocks you can purchase the Full Time Pass and get everything the app has to offer unlocked, including over 170 current clock faces and every face released in the future. We believe collecting clocks should be simple. Time changes every second. Your clock should too.
