Most apps you open. This one you display. Bauhaus Clock isn't a widget for checking time. It's a clock for keeping time. Designed for your desk, home office, studio or nightstand: the spaces where your device rests, not where you scroll. Swiss watch mechanics. 28,800 beats per hour. Hand-tuned details you won't consciously notice but will absolutely feel. "This is absolutely stunning." Chris Messina, Inventor of #hashtag "I love the subtle depth like the hour indices." John Gruber, Creator of Markdown "One of very few delightful apps to hit my iPhone in the last few years." Josh Ginter, The Newsprint WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT • Optimized for iPhone Duo Beautifully crafted for every pose, open or closed. • 3 Authentic Watch Movements Smooth 4Hz mechanical sweep at 28,800 beats per hour. Classic quartz tick. Digital glide motion. Real Swiss caliber accuracy. Not an animation. Physics. Turn on Clock Ticking to hear Quartz and Mechanical tick as they run. • Hand-built dial craft Hand-tuned palettes, custom numerals, depth from real shadowing, built by someone who over-invested so you don't have to pretend it's "good enough." The result looks like a high-end mechanical watch. • 18 Day Dials Each color is deliberately crafted to match your space, now with Agave and Burgundy. Pick the one that feels like yours. • 14 Lume Colors for Night Night mode that reads like real watch lume, with a glow carefully tuned to match authentic luminescence. • Dual Time Zones Your time zone plus any city in the world. Perfect for remote work, travel, or keeping track of family abroad. One glance, two clocks. Show them in Full Screen on iPad and iPhone Duo, or only when you turn your device sideways. • Dial Shuffle Enable once. Every time you return to the app, it surprises you with a new dial and lume combination. • Home Screen Widgets Local Time, Dual Time and World Clock, with Local Time and World Clock now also in a large size. Customize each widget on its own, or keep them all in sync with the app. • Day & Night Scheduling Three ways to control when your clock dial switches in Auto Mode: Follow System, switch at actual Sunset to Sunrise, or set your own Time Schedule. • StandBy Mode Built for iOS StandBy, night mode activates automatically to match the dark, minimal aesthetic. Pick Silver Hands or any lume color for the widget. WHAT PEOPLE SAY AND FEEL "Makes me so happy whenever the clock pops up." Hyatt N., Director "It brings me so much joy." Anthony Menecola "Incredible attention to detail." Fons Mans, Founder of Offgrid.inc Bauhaus Clock started as a screensaver for Mac. Built by a designer who loves watches and couldn't find one he actually wanted to look at. Every detail is intentional. The weight of the hands, the numerals, the texture of the dial, the way light hits the indices. Featured by MKBHD, MacRumors and Uncrate. Now on iPhone, iPad and iPhone Duo.

Neurima is an experimental psychoacoustic audio player that applies sample-level timing desynchronization during playback. The app builds on research related to binaural beats, but uses a different method. Where Instead of adding audible frequency shifts, Neurima adjusts timing in a way intended to remain below conscious perception. Use Neurima with audio files (music, podcasts, audiobooks) already available on your device, or explore with included seed tracks and Sound Lab, a built-in tool for creating your own ambient source material. Features: • Play local audio files and eligible music available on device • Apply real-time psychoacoustic DSP during playback • Visualize music as it plays • Use included seed tracks if you do not have music on device • Create ambient source material with Sound Lab • Export Sound Lab creations as JSON or audio For best results, use stereo over-ear headphones or wired earbuds. Bluetooth headphones and earbuds can also work when both left and right channels are active. All processing happens on device and in memory during playback. Original files are never modified or written back to your library. Streaming-only and DRM-protected tracks are not supported. No account required. Research in this area is still early and exploratory. Neurima is intended for personal experimentation and general wellness exploration, not medical use.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Neurima at Free against Bauhaus Clock's $14.99. Neurima also leads on update cadence (daily vs every 9 days) and rating (5.0 vs 4.8). Bauhaus Clock's advantage is ratings volume (115 vs 2) and chart position (#22 vs unranked). On ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
