Clock Face - desktop alarm Reviews

I use ClockFace a lot. I’m in health care and don’t like wearing a watch so this analog clock is a superb option for me. My current favorite style is the clock with dashes for numbers and a red second hand.
Two things would bump my rating to 5 stars: 1) an ability to view the clock from the lock screen, and 2) a second hand added to the starry night clock. Because the starry night background is so complex the lack of a second hand makes it difficult to orient the time in my mind, and this has me foregoing the use of such a beautiful clock. (Perhaps a shooting star type of thing? I realize comets don’t move in a circle but it might look cool.)

Limited this app options. Would be nice if there were a number of more ornate grandfather clock faces to pick from. Also would enjoy an instant chime mute touch spot on each this app screen. Would also like option of this app displaying briefly (maybe 2-3 seconds) on each chime position and longer with hour chiming sequence. Finally, perhaps a bit much to ask but something to think about......would be nice anytime it chimes that it would automatically determine if a phone conversation is in process and automatically, significantly self mute.

I need to know what time it is without picking up my phone, or grabbing my glasses to read it on my computer. I'm almost blind and this big clock is just perfect for my needs. I may buy the pro version just to support the developer, don't need more features.

ClockFace is ok. There are only 14 faces included in the full version. 14? That’s kind of pitiful. And there are really only 4 or 5 that are interesting or provide variety.

More faces please.

Another annoying thing is that there is no consistency in the 12 vs 24 hr clock in the alarm settings. And when the alarm goes off while you’re in an app it just disappears without giving a notification. In total, underwhelming I’m sorry to say.

I love this phone! It has multiple faces, you can block out everything on the screen except the clock, it has no ads. You can dim the screen a little bit. I like the one with no numbers, a grey dial, and coral hands. It has some really great, simple look. Nice job! I am new to apps, and I can’t believe someone would create this and give it out for free.

Limited clock face selection, color selections cannot be changed, cannot modify formatting or position of text. Would like digital readout in 12/24h:mm:ss format, would like option to add year to date/day. Would like more selections for hands. Would like a way to “lock” the display to protect it from unintended changes and leave it “always on” so I don’t need a wristwatch anymore.

Adds distraction also the second hand needs to run fluid and smooth not jumping from one second to the next. Analog clocks are supposed to be relaxing not jerky jerky stressful. Like duhhhhh don’t you want to sell more. It’s the little things. The little things.

I preach at church and other locations, some of which do not have a clock that I can see, so I have started using ClockFace to keep track of the time. I like the analog face - it is classy - and it stays on so I don’t have to unlock the phone partway through.

Like the different clock faces, would be nice to have a few more options (colors, perhaps? more space options?), but very functional as is. Pro version was definitely worth the money. Absolutely recommend.

My favorite is the soft wake up sounds. My biggest complaint is that I have the alarm set for weekdays and it still goes off every Saturday and Sunday. I have checked and double checked that I did not have those days marked for an alarm. I have deleted ClockFace and reinstalled and it still goes off on the weekends. I have no idea what is wrong.

This new widget app has changed my life immensely. I can now go anywhere from the gym to the boardroom, with the confidence that when I go for my trusty iPhone, I’ve got the grown up clock! Don’t get me wrong, this ain’t yer fathers timepiece. It still has the features that stand the test of time, but in a sophisticated

I like that the alarm is right on time and that once you set it it goes off daily. The choice of skins is adequate and so is choice of sounds. All in all it is a good time piece plus alarm. Beats 99.8 percent of all the apps on ClockFace Store.

Was able to get rid of my clock radio because I put ClockFace on at night and then I can glance over and know the time without having to wake my phone.

I went to check the time today and it had froze up, so was showing the wrong time. It’s 11:35 am. It was showing a 2:45. When I tap on it and it goes back to the main page where you can do settings, it shows that it works. But when I go back to it on my Apple phone to widgets I have set up it’s not working

Perfect clock for me. Very large and clear which makes it much easier to read, especially for those older folks whose eyesight is not what it used to be.

Pretty good clock face app. The problem is my hourly reminders for work—to get away from my computer for a break—also remind me on my days off even though the alarms are set for my work days only. Also, as time goes on, I receive 2, then 3, then 4, and now 5 notifications for each alarm. Buggy.

Synchronizes with the phone’s clock (one reviewer falsely claimed otherwise.) The free version has five available clock faces that are simple, sharp, pleasant and are easy to swipe between. The Pro version has some fancier faces (Roman numeral, for example), but I don’t think I’ll upgrade. Depends on how much it costs.

The window around the clock is visable! So it is a this app inside a window. ClockFace needs so much work. Why not do the this app well and ask for a bit more $....then perhaps I'll buy. The reason for the 2 stars is because the developer did allow for try before buy, otherwise 1 star.

Late year I had knee surgery and stayed at my sister’s House instead of taking my bedroom clock over there I found ClockFace. It helped me so much when taking my medications. Thank you again. Paulette. Sunshine.n.Texas

With the bold second hand I can easily time my rest periods when I screencast or use my laptop during a program. Great!

I have been looking for a simple beautiful clock face to have on at night that isn’t too bright or obnoxious. The space/moon face is perfect. It has a dimmer and the best alarm that ascends to a nice volume. Excellent app, well worth the money for the extra faces.

Only one thing that could make ClockFace a Six Star; have it the wallpaper and running in the background.
Now that would take the cake, and eat it too!

Yeah probably work better if my phone has a stand to prop it up on but the dark tile is nice for a nightstand

Initially the day/date changed at noon. No way to set AM/PM. Now it’s stuck on Friday September 4 - and it’s been displaying that for over a week. No indication of how to sync with internal digital clock.

Of course you have to pay to get rid of the adds and to gain access to more than the three basic faces. But the ads are loud. Within 3 min of downloading ClockFace a blaring add for Orlando filled the room. I immediately removed ClockFace . I am fine with banner ads but to have loud ads on an otherwise silent app is inconsiderate.

Only wish I could make this wallpaper for my phone

Would have gotten more stars but the date is wrong. My iPad is correct. Didn’t find how to make your clock correct itself. Still looking!

I like to use it as a screen saver but I don't know if it can do that,also I'm worried how much of a drain on the battery + data used. Can you tell me if it is ok to do this ? As a screen saver. Thank you and I hope this helps you and in turn you help me.

I’ve owned other watches that offered much better free faces than the Apple Watch. I’m very disappointed in the choices, to me they’re so very generic. Paying for the better ones is a rip-off and a slap in the face to loyal Apple customers. So I give 2 stars for the watch face app, I’d give less but for their namesake, 2.
