A simple and elegant clock with a focus on displaying the time in the most pleasing and readable way possible. There's a dark mode, with the ability to lower the brightness so that the time is only just readable, ideal for use at night as a bedside clock. During the day, the light mode with full and vibrant colours can be used to keep track of the time while you work. As well as customising the clock with a selection of colours and brightness levels, you can choose to display or hide the date, seconds, use the 12 or 24 hour clock, and of course toggle between night and day mode. The layout of the clock intelligently adjusts to make the best use of the screen whether your device is in portrait or landscape. Bed Time also includes a set of calming sounds - such as rain, ocean waves, a burning fire, etc - to help you drift off to sleep.
