Minimal Clock puts a real retro digital clock on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and StandBy. It is the authentic 7-segment LCD look, not a plain font dressed up to resemble one. THE LOOK The time is drawn in a true DSEG7 7-segment typeface with a "ghost segments" effect: the unlit segments sit faintly behind the lit digits, exactly like a physical digital clock. FIVE WIDGETS โข Clock + Date โ time, weekday, and date โข Clock Only โ a large, legible clock โข Date & Day โ the full weekday and date โข World Clock โ your local time plus one or two cities (Pro) โข World Cities โ up to three cities, no local clock (Pro) WORLD CLOCK Keep other time zones on your Home Screen. The city picker searches every time zone, shows each city's UTC offset, and marks a day difference (+1 / โ1) for cities already on tomorrow or still on yesterday. FIVE THEMES, TWO FONTS Pick a theme for each widget: Dark, Light, Clear (transparent), Green (retro VFD), or Red (retro LED). Choose the LCD (Retro) 7-segment font or a monospace Terminal font. Every placed widget can look different. COLORS, LABEL, AND NIGHT MODE (PRO) Five display colors sit on top of any theme: amber, ice blue, cyan, violet, and rose. Add a short label of your own under the clock. Switch on night mode and the StandBy clock dims to a soft red, so it won't light up a dark room. WHEREVER YOU NEED THE TIME Small and Medium on the Home Screen, rectangular, circular, and inline Lock Screen widgets, and StandBy support so it works as a bedside desk clock. The world clocks come in Small, Medium and rectangular. The clock follows your device's 12/24-hour and first-day-of-week settings, and the date and weekday follow your locale. City names are shown in English. ONE-TIME PURCHASE Minimal Clock Pro is one purchase, not a subscription. The three core clock widgets, all five themes, both fonts, Lock Screen, and StandBy stay free. PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts, no network, no tracking, no data collection. Nothing leaves your device.
