Give your old device a second life with this basic clock. Stop letting your old iPhones and iPads gather dust in a drawer.

KEY FEATURES DAY AND NIGHT MODES: A simple tap on the screen toggles between high-visibility and low-light modes.

NO CLUTTER: No alarms, no weather, no stopwatches, no preferences to mess up. Just the time. PRIVACY FIRST: No ads, no tracking, and no in-app purchases. It does not even need an internet connection. IMPORTANT NOTE Time and timezone settings are pulled directly from your iOS device settings. To change the time displayed, you much adjust your system preferences and the clock will automatically pick up your changes.
