Just Chess Clock A chess clock. That's it. No ads, no account, no permissions. Pick a time control, tap, play. Most chess clock apps ask for an email or run a banner across the bottom while you're in time trouble. This one has no network access at all, so there's nothing to serve and nothing to send. At the board: > Tap the screen to end your move > Digits readable across a table > Low-time warning before the flag > Pause and resume > Screen stays awake while the clock runs > Simple time presets Privacy No account, no tracking, no analytics, no network access. Nothing is collected. Free.
