Stand your iPhone or an old iPad sideways on your desk. Now it's a clock. Clockist has six clocks, each a tribute to a real piece of design: the split-flap airport board, the cold-cathode Nixie tube, the German minimalist desk clock, e-ink paper, a titanium instrument dial and Liquid Glass. Swipe left or right for a different clock. The screen stays on. SIX CLOCKS • Mechanical Flip — Solari-style cards that really flip every minute (free) • Paper — big numerals with an ink-on-paper feel (free) • Nixie Tube — unlit cathodes still visible inside the glass, in amber, ice, jade or rose • Classic Desk Clock — a nod to German industrial design, with selectable backlight; sound and settings live on the panel • Titanium — brushed, blasted, weave or guilloché finish • Liquid Glass — six flowing colors Every clock works in landscape and portrait, with a 24-hour option, seconds and a mechanical tick. DAYS: COUNT DOWN OR UP • Count down to a day, or count up from one • Birthdays and anniversaries repeat every year and count to the next one • Days within 30 days, anniversaries and every 100th day show up on the clock face for a while • Show the count in large numerals in place of the time • Get a reminder at 9 AM on the day, or add it to Calendar • Days back up to iCloud and restore on a new phone FOCUS TIMER The same clock becomes a focus timer: 15, 25, 45 or 60 minutes, same look. Add rain, ocean waves, night forest, campfire, café, library, brown noise or a mechanical tick. HOME & LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS • A Home Screen widget for every clock, with its own appearance, Nixie color or titanium finish • Paper Calendar: the month and the time together • Days widgets in small, medium and large (and extra large on iPad); the large one lists all your days; four styles • Lock Screen clock and Days CLOCKIST PRO Free: the Mechanical Flip and Paper clocks with their widgets, the focus timer with every soundscape, and up to 3 days. Pro unlocks all six clocks, every Liquid Glass color, all Pro Home and Lock Screen widgets, and unlimited days. Pro is available as a monthly or yearly subscription or a one-time purchase. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the period; manage them in your Apple ID settings.

See the time at a glance. Turn your iPhone or iPad into a large, full-screen clock for your desk or nightstand, with no ads or account required. START FREE Use the Digital clock with the Midnight appearance. Adjust the size, show the date or seconds, and choose 12-hour or 24-hour time. MAKE IT YOURS WITH CLOCK PRO Clock Pro is an optional one-time purchase, not a subscription. Add the Flip and Focus clock styles, Paper and Night Red appearances, and your own text, background and colon colors. Choose another time zone and give its displayed location your own town and country name. Add a personal message with its own font, size and color. Save up to five color settings, five messages and five time zones to switch between. QUICK TO ADJUST Tap a quick control to select its size slider. Tap again to cycle through its choices, or touch and hold to open its menu. Lock the controls to prevent accidental changes. A short interactive guide helps you get started. AT YOUR PACE Keep the screen awake while the clock is open. Burn-In Protection gently moves the display over time; it does not guarantee against screen burn-in. Keeping the screen awake uses more battery. Your personal messages, saved places and clock preferences are stored on your device, not collected by the developer. No account, ads or tracking. GOOD TO KNOW The app must stay open to show the clock; system restrictions may apply. Locking the controls does not lock the device or prevent leaving the app. World time shows one selected time zone at a time, and a custom place name does not use your physical location. Editing current settings does not overwrite a saved preset. The clock works offline; purchases and restoration use Apple's services. There are no alarms, timers, widgets or system Lock Screen replacement.
