A Word Clock
Time in Words
$0.99
See the time differently: expressive word clocks, vivid themes, adaptive typography and a matching Home Screen widget in seven languages.
Time in Words turns the current time into a phrase you can read at a glance. Instead of showing only digits, it can say “quarter past ten,” “half past five,” or an approximate, relaxed version of the time.
Choose how time feels
Swipe between several clock presentations, including a large word clock, digital time, date and location details, an analog clock, lazy and exact time together, and a past-now-next timeline.
Make it yours
Select from modern visual themes and a broad collection of accessible color schemes. Adjust the text size so long words remain readable, and choose between exact wording and a more relaxed lazy-time style.
Your language
Time phrases are available in English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese and Simplified Chinese. The wording is designed to sound natural rather than like a mechanical translation.
On your Home Screen
Add the widget to see the time in words without opening the app. The widget uses your selected language, lazy-time setting and color scheme.
