Binary Watch | Clock & Widget 4+

Nice Clock

Nice clock but I would like a BCD option. Also a widget would be nice!

Nice Format but Not in Widget

I’ve had an actual binary clock for some years, and have been looking for an app like it. What I want is for the app to (1) display seconds, (2) show hours, minutes, and seconds on three lines of up to 6 bits each (NOT binary-coded decimal), (3) have the option to not show decimal numbers next to the lights, and finally (4) do it all on a widget. Of the apps I have seen, this one comes the closest, failing only the last criterion — the widget does not show seconds and alway shows the decimal numbers. I’m hoping that the developer will give the widget the same options that the full-screen display has, in which case I I’ll give the app the full 5 stars.

UPDATE: Thanks DejaWorks for your reply! I do, however, have a couple of *decimal* digital clock widgets (3rd party, not Apple) that show seconds and update the widget ever second (search for “clock widget seconds” in the App Store). Is there some reason that this can’t be done with binary dots instead of decimal numerals??

P.S. I’m giving you 5 stars for at least trying, and for other fixed in the widget. And while you’re at it, how about a color selection in the widget?

Developer Response ,

Thank you for your feedback. On the widget; we cannot refresh the screen per second, this is why on the widget we cannot display the seconds. This is the Apple’s iOS limitation.

UPDATE: Displaying provided date/time text by OS is different procedure than triggering a graphic update event. According to our experience and tries it didn’t work. We wish we had the seconds digit would blink in real time every seconds.
Thanks for your update, appreciated.

Cool if you like Binary

I own a binary wrist watch so this app is pretty cool, they should have option for 24hr or 12hr.
If you are just getting into it you can see the numbers in the hours, min, and sec. Once you know how to read it you can turn the numbers off and only you will know the time. People seem impressed with my wrist watch so the same should happen with this app.
