Your iPhone, as a retro pixel display. New: Pixel Paint, ambient scenes, night mode, a 12-hour forecast and a widget for your Home Screen and StandBy. Turn your iPhone or iPad into a retro LED display. Put it on a stand on your desk or nightstand, and Pixlay shows the time, the weather, your next meeting and much more in glowing, animated pixels. Got an old iPhone in a drawer? Give it a new job. HOW IT WORKS • Pixlay keeps the screen on and cycles through your views on its own • Swipe for the next view, tap to open the settings • Pick the views you like and set the pixel size, with a live preview of every view • Tip: keep your device on its charger FREE VIEWS • Clock – 12 or 24 hours, small or large • Date – the month as a pixel calendar with today glowing red, plus weekday and week number • Calendar – your next event, how long until it starts, and the next 12 hours in your calendar colors • Weather – animated pixel weather for your location with today's low and high, in °C, °F or K • Day count – an animated hourglass counts the days to your big date, with fireworks when it's here • Marquee – your own text scrolling by like an LED sign • Tasks and notes – six to-dos to tick off and a note that stays in sight • Also: greeting, stopwatch, time to sunrise or sunset, battery WIDGET The pixel clock for your Home Screen and StandBy, in small or medium.

I Love this clock app I kind of reminds me about the Lametric time wifi clock for smart home on amazon for 200 dollars and the pixlay app works great and It has a couple things instead of just a clock but It doesn’t really have all the features just like the lametric clock but yeah I wish it has all the lametric time clock features like Facebook X YouTube Radio Weather Station And 1000 more but it is a nice clock It works great On iPhone iPad iPod touch and Apple Vision Pro and works great with lametric time and smile and just lametric but however the pixlay app is very good and I wish it had no ads and weather units and make bitcoin block time free that would be cool so make it free and I want it all free no ads have bitcoin and blocktime and weather updates and stuff thanks
