ThreatClock is a daily training timer for concealed-carry visualization and replica dry-draw practice. A THREAT cue can sound even when the phone is locked, silent, or in Focus. ARM your day, then lock the phone. ThreatClock places random cues inside the window you choose. When one fires, open the drill, run the shot clock, and log whether you visualized the draw or completed a replica dry draw. FEATURES • Random threat cues throughout your schedule window • Works through lock screen, silent mode, and Focus • Shot clock with buzzer, BEEP, or a custom recorded start sound • Home scoreboard for remaining threats versus drills logged today • Lock-screen Live Activity while armed • Apple Watch companion cues • Upcoming times hidden by default so the cue stays a surprise SAFETY — REPLICA TRAINERS ONLY ThreatClock is a timing and visualization aid for non-lethal practice. Use it only with fake, inert, dummy, or replica training devices that cannot fire a projectile. Never handle, draw, present, load, or manipulate a real firearm or any other real weapon while using this app. All live-fire training belongs with a qualified professional instructor, completely separate from this app. If a cue fires in public, visualize only. Do not touch a weapon of any kind. You use ThreatClock entirely at your own risk. Requires iOS 26. A physical iPhone is recommended.
