Optimized for iPhone Duo. Built with the latest SDK, the app fills the entire inner display and automatically adjusts its layout whether the device is folded or open. Stay Clock turns your iPhone or iPad into an always-on desk clock you can read from across the room. Pick from 101 faces, flip clocks included (100 with the optional Lifetime unlock), and switch to a dim red face on true black at night. The same face follows you to StandBy, the Lock Screen, Home Screen widgets and Apple Watch, with a calendar that fits each face, an hourly chime and a simple alarm. Made for the desk, the shelf and the nightstand. Full screen time that stays readable from far away, in portrait or landscape, on iPhone and iPad. Keep Awake that understands charging. Stay on while charging, always on with a battery floor, or follow the system, so your clock never surprises you. Panel Care for OLED screens. Gentle pixel shifting, details that soften when idle, and a dim red night face on true black for the bedroom. One face everywhere. The face you pick appears on the full screen clock, StandBy, Lock Screen and Home Screen widgets and Apple Watch, and looks the same on every one. A calendar that suits each face. Choose Off, Simple with the date and weekday, or a full Month view separately for every face. Your language and your time zone. Switch the app language instantly, pick any city or time zone, and choose 12 or 24 hour time and your own digits. Private by design. No account, no ads, no tracking and no network. Everything stays on your device. A dock on the desk: your phone stays lit while it charges, showing the time in a face you chose.

Verdict
The clearest difference is price: Stay Clock at Free against FlipClock Pro's $0.99. Stay Clock also leads on update cadence (every 4 days vs every 2 weeks). FlipClock Pro's advantage is in-app purchases (none vs 1). On ads, device support and iOS requirement there is nothing between them.
