Creative Clock Design

Animated bedside desk clock

Free · Designed for iPad. Not verified for macOS.

Ten clock faces that all tell the same real time: ants carry biscuits, forklifts stack crates, a brush writes in water. Swipe to change one for the next. CreativeClock turns the time on your iPhone or iPad into ten small worlds. Every clock shows the same system time. Only the way it tells you changes. Ants carry biscuits into place. Forklifts stack crates across a warehouse floor. A brush writes the numerals in water and lets them dry. A wall of little clock faces turns its hands until the digits appear. Swipe up or left for the next clock, down or right for the one before. THE TEN CLOCKS Car Park Clock - cars drive in and park to spell out the time. Forklift Clock - forklifts carry crates across a warehouse floor. Worker Clock - couriers walk parcels into place, seen from above. Ant Cookie Clock - teams of ants carry biscuits between the digits. Kinetic Array - a grid of hands turns like a geared display board. Water Writing Clock - a brush writes the time in water on paper. Sundial Clock - a gnomon's shadow crosses a paper dial under a tree. Clock Wall - a wall of small clocks turns its hands to draw the digits. Word Clock - a lit glass panel spells the time out in words. Flip Clock - mechanical cards flip over as the minute turns. SETTINGS Dim at night - choose the hours and how deep the dimming goes. Rotate - pick the clocks you want and how often they change, from every minute to every hour. The change lands ten seconds before the minute turns, so a new clock moves as soon as it appears. Keep the screen on - for a phone or tablet left on a stand. Header - show or hide the title, date and time zone. MADE TO BE LEFT RUNNING It reads from across a room, stays on one clock when you want it to, and follows Reduce Motion. VoiceOver reads the current time on every clock. No account, no ads, no tracking, no network access. Everything runs on the device. iPhone and iPad, iOS 17 or later. Landscape on iPhone, either way up on iPad. Available in 22 languages.

Three new clocks, a settings panel, and the app in 22 languages. NEW CLOCKS Sundial Clock - a gnomon's shadow crosses a paper dial in the dappled light under a tree. Clock Wall - a wall of small clock faces turns its hands until the digits appear. Word Clock - a lit glass panel spells the time out in words. Ten clocks in all, up from seven. SETTINGS Dim at night, with your own hours and dimming depth. Rotate through the clocks you choose, from every minute to every hour. Keep the screen on. Show or hide the title, date and time zone. LANGUAGES Now 22, adding German, Portuguese, Italian, Russian, Turkish, Indonesian, Vietnamese, Thai, Dutch, Polish, Ukrainian, Swedish, Danish, Norwegian and Finnish. ARTWORK Every backdrop redrawn at full resolution: asphalt, warehouse floor, the kinetic wall, the sundial's paper. Five different cars in the car park instead of one, parked differently on every device. Crates in four materials, and a crate keeps its material when a forklift moves it. The worker clock rebuilt as a warehouse floor seen from above. The word clock's lit letters now give off light. MOTION AND FIXES The calligraphy brush paces itself the way running script is written. The kinetic array's hands land the way a geared motor puts them down. Ants carrying neighbouring biscuits take separate routes instead of bunching up, and a biscuit fetched from outside sets off straight away rather than waiting. A carried crate no longer blinks out, and crates sit properly on the floor. A carried parcel turns with the courier carrying it. The time stays readable on an iPad held upright.
