Turn your phone into a Morse code beacon. SOSLight blinks your flashlight (or full-screen white light) in international Morse code so rescuers, hikers, and sailors can spot your signal in the dark. When the power is out, when you are off-grid, or when you simply need to be seen ā tap a preset and let the light do the talking. KEY FEATURES ⢠Plain flashlight mode ā one tap for instant, steady light ⢠Built-in emergency presets ā SOS, HELP, FIRE, MAYDAY, CQD, SOS-PAN, recognized worldwide ⢠Custom messages ā type any phrase and it is converted to Morse automatically ⢠Infinite loop playback ā keeps signaling until rescuers arrive ⢠Automatic fallback ā uses the screen as a beacon on devices without a torch ⢠100% on-device ā no network, no account, no ads, no tracking WHO IT IS FOR ⢠Hikers, climbers, sailors, and night cyclists who need a visible distress signal ⢠Anyone preparing for power outages, earthquakes, or natural disasters ⢠Students and hobbyists learning Morse code ⢠Outdoor enthusiasts who want a dependable signal light PRIVACY SOSLight does not access your camera images, photos, location, or network. The only permission it requests is flashlight (torch) control, and nothing is collected, stored, or transmitted off the device. Emergencies do not announce themselves. Keep SOSLight on your home screen and call for help with light when seconds matter.

AllyClock turns your iPhone or iPad into the clock it deserves to be: a big, beautiful, fullscreen time display that looks great on a desk, a nightstand, or a shelf. Two faces, both live and adjustable: FULLSCREEN The time in large, thin digits with seconds ticking quietly beside them. Weekday, date, and time zone sit underneath on a clean baseline. Toggle seconds, weekday, zone, GMT offset, and the flag to make it yours. WORLD CARDS The cities you care about, each on its own card: flag, local time, date, and GMT offset. Add up to twelve cities, break them into rows, and scale the time and date independently. DESIGNED TO DISAPPEAR Controls fade away after a moment, leaving only the time. Tap anywhere to bring them back. Every change applies live: close a panel any way you like and your changes stick. MADE FOR LANDSCAPE AllyClock is built for iPhone and iPad in landscape, with a companion web version at allyclock.netlify.app.
