FlipMatic

FlipMatic turns your iPhone, iPad or Mac into a flip clock, the kind that once clattered on airport departure boards and in old train stations. Every minute, the flaps turn over one by one. A CLOCK THAT FILLS THE SCREEN ⢠Big, clear digits that fill any screen, upright or sideways ⢠12- or 24-hour time, optional seconds, and the date on its own strip ⢠Burn-in protection: a slow drift, night dimming and idle dimming ⢠Keep the screen awake while the clock is showing THE BOARD ⢠Every few minutes the clock turns into a message board ⢠Put your own words on it, or let it show built-in phrases ⢠FlipMatic speaks 43 languages, on the menus and on the board itself REMINDERS AND A TIMER ⢠Reminders flip onto the board at the time you choose, with a soft chime: every day, on weekdays, on the days you pick, or just once ⢠When FlipMatic is in the background, reminders arrive as notifications, and can ring through Focus if you allow it ⢠A countdown timer on the clock's own flaps, from 1 to 99 minutes THEMES ⢠Eight built-in looks: Classic, Paper, Vintage, Amber, Green, Pink, Rose and Blue ⢠More themes for free at flipmatic.app, from cherry blossoms to comic books to a Halloween graveyard, added to your library with a free account ⢠Mark favorites and let FlipMatic rotate them for you WEATHER ⢠Optional: the local temperature on the strip, from the Norwegian Meteorological Institute (MET Norway) ⢠Type a city, or let FlipMatic use your location, only while Weather is on MADE TO BE LEFT ON ⢠No ads, and no account needed for the clock, the board, reminders or the timer ⢠Pseudonymous usage statistics (a random ID, no name, email or location) help us improve FlipMatic. Switch them off in Settings at any time Questions or ideas? support@flipmatic.app
