About

Cuepact Clock

Read full description

A free fullscreen clock for live productions. Made to do one thing well: show the time clearly. Cuepact Clock gives stage managers, show callers and production crews a clear view of local time on iPhone and iPad. Open the app and the clock is ready. Tap the clock to cycle through four views: • White on black, with seconds • White on black, without seconds • Black on white, with seconds • Black on white, without seconds Large, aligned digits make the 24-hour display easy to read. The clock fills the available screen space, adapts to portrait, landscape and resizable windows, and keeps the screen awake while the app is active. On iPhone Duo, a horizontal fold moves the clock to the upper screen and leaves the lower screen black. Fully open, the clock uses all available space. The layout adapts automatically, without extra settings. There are no settings or accounts, and the clock works offline. A short tip explains the tap gesture on first use. The clock follows the time and time zone set on your device. Touch and hold the clock to open a centered menu with Cuepact for Mac, help, privacy and terms. The startup card links to cuepact.com and closes automatically after five seconds. Support: info@cuepact.com
