Pixel Art Clock is a design-focused clock that you can use in portrait or landscape flip clock mode.  Perfect if you like pixel art, cozy vibes, retro, gaming, or minimalist aesthetics. It's also ad-free. Some example use cases are having it show in your iPhone when it's in a stand next to your computer or in a wall mounted iPad. You can switch between styles by swapping left/right or tapping the screen. Once you tap on the screen you can also access Settings, where you can toggle 24/12 hour mode, displaying seconds, grouping of the digits (grouped is more practical, but in landscape ungrouped looks more interesting), and keeping the screen on. Thank you for trying it out. Feel free to contact support@featherhop.com with any questions.
