This is NOT a clock application. It won't tell you the current time of the day. Instead, this LITE version is an application to teach your child, or anyone for that matter, how a clock would work. ***************************************** The full version has more features like setting the clock to match a given time and to tell the time shown on the clock. Check out the option "Buy full version". ***************************************** A clock has two kinds of hand: an hour-hand and a minute-hand. In this application, the hour-hand is represented by the blue arrow, while the minute-hand is represented by the red arrow. You can adjust the minute hand by touching and dragging it around the screen.
