Two cities. Two time zones. One clear screen. Luma Pro’s signature Dual Clock feature lets you see the time in your current location and your home city at the same time. Whether you are traveling abroad, working across time zones, or staying connected with family, both times remain clearly visible on one screen. Select your preferred city and check both local and home time at a glance. Adjust the clock brightness with a simple swipe to create the perfect level of light for your room. Choose a bright, easy-to-read display or dim it for comfortable nighttime use. Use Luma Night Clock whether your iPhone is plugged in or running on battery—no charging connection is required. Rotate your iPhone between portrait and landscape, and the clock automatically adjusts to fit the screen. Upgrade to Luma Pro with a one-time purchase to unlock Dual Clock and unlimited clock colors. Always-on OLED burn-in protection gently shifts the clock’s position over time to help reduce screen retention. This protection works automatically and remains active at all times.
