A fullscreen clock that shows the current local time, down to the second. I needed a highly visible and distraction-free clock app with no ads, but I couldn't find one, so I made it. You can use it as a bedside clock, desk clock, or stage clock. On iPhone Duo, stand it up like a laptop. The time shows on the top half. No settings or setup required. Everything runs on your device. No ads, no tracking, and no in-app purchases.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: HH at none against Smooth Countdown Lite's 1. HH also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 13 months). Smooth Countdown Lite's advantage is iOS requirement (6.0 vs 16.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
