Fliqlo® is a pioneering flip clock app, recreating the mechanical, vintage feel of flip clocks with a simple, minimalist design. The macOS version has been popular for over 20 years as a screensaver module with a design that has remained unchanged since its first release in 2002, and this iOS/iPadOS version has the exact same design. The highly visible font and large display make it easy to see the time even from a distance. The understated monotone matte black finish won’t distract you or hinder your productivity during extended use in your daily life or at work. When displayed in full screen, it blends seamlessly into the device and your living space, like a minimalist piece of interior decor. This is why photos of the app are often shared on social media as part of a room’s interior, rather than just screenshots. FEATURES: - Switchable between 12/24 hour display - Switchable between portrait and landscape mode - Option to display seconds when tapping the screen - Dimmable - Flaps can be displayed/hidden - Display size can be reduced - Sleep Timer to activate the device’s auto-lock settings after a certain time NOTES: - This app does not start automatically like macOS screensaver. - This clock cannot replace your device’s Lock Screen or StandBy mode. - Your device’s auto-lock is disabled while this clock is active in the foreground.
