Describe the clock you want. Nightside designs it.
Type a sentence — "Japanese neon numbers", "a vintage brass dial with Roman numerals", or just "I'm a peaceful person who loves the sea" — and Nightside designs a complete clock for it: the dial, hands, numerals and colours, with a background picture painted to match. Preview it on your real Home screen, change it in words ("remove the second hand", "make it warmer"), and keep the ones you love. No other clock app on the App Store does this.
A CLOCK YOU CAN READ FROM BED
• Large time, adjustable to the size you want, in 12- or 24-hour format, with optional seconds
• Bedside mode: a quiet, dimmable clock with a brightness dial, black or warm red low-light colours, and controls that fade until you tap
• Keep the screen on while it stands on your nightstand or dock, with the next alarm and today's weather at a glance
• Portrait and landscape, iPhone and iPad, and layouts for foldable iPhone
ALARMS YOU CAN TRUST
• Repeat on any days, pick a tone, choose snooze of 5, 10 or 15 minutes, and see exactly when the next alarm rings before you save
• Skip just the next occurrence of a repeating alarm without turning it off
• On iOS 26 and later, alarms are system alarms that can ring through Silent mode and Focus once you allow them
• Say "Stop" or "Snooze" to the ringing clock, hands-free (English)
• Clear status on every alarm: active, snoozing, skipped, or needs permission — never a switch that looks on while nothing is scheduled
MAKE IT YOURS
• 33 clock faces: 13 digital (flip, segment, LED-style, mono, stacked and more) and 20 analog dials
• 14 curated looks such as Moderno, Station, Night Garden, Starlight and Sun Path
• Use your own photo as the background, or let Nightside paint one from your description
• Save as many styles as you like and switch in a tap
WEATHER, WITHOUT THE FUSS
• Current temperature and conditions for your location or a city you choose, in °C or °F
• Works without location permission when you pick a city
• Honest freshness: you always see when the weather was last updated
ON YOUR HOME SCREEN AND WRIST
• Clock widget with the time, next alarm and weather, plus a one-tap Bedside launcher
• Apple Watch: see the next alarm, switch alarms on and off, and stop or snooze from your wrist
FREE AND PREMIUM
Nightside is free to download with one alarm, Bedside mode, voice Stop and Snooze, the Moderno look and a small ad banner that never appears on the clock, in Bedside mode or while an alarm rings. Nightside Premium removes ads and unlocks described (AI) styles, every face and look, photo backgrounds, weather and additional alarms. Premium is a monthly or yearly subscription that renews until cancelled; the price is shown in the app before you subscribe. If you bought ClockIT when it was a paid app, Premium is included for life — just open the app on the same Apple ID.
Alarms need notification or alarm permission and depend on your device's sound settings. Weather data by Apple Weather. Described styles send only your description to Nightside's server to design the clock; nothing else leaves your device.

Mine has always showed (Null) where weather should be showing. Not sure why. Sort of a bummer though since it tells me what to get dressed in.
Update a Downgrade in Aug 2018

This app wasn’t perfect. It’s simple, clean clock interface and the dimmable screen made it a great alarm clock for travel. It worked well enough despite it’s quirks, like the brightness bug for instance, and lack of desirable features, such as being able to sort the list of alarms, rather you were stuck with the list only being shown in the order in which they were created. But now, it’s completely unusable. Alarms in list don’t show am or pm so you don’t know which it is, particularly if you have a long list of alarms, unless you edit and then remember which one you clicked on once you saved it. And then there was the kiss of death, my 5:15 (am) alarm went off at 3:14 (am). I deleted every other previously programmed alarm so it was the only one. And I know I set it for the correct time. And once the alarm sounded, and I shut of the alarm, the app wouldn’t remain open even if it’s set not to lock the screen while in use. This app just can’t be trusted anymore, well at least to do anything other than to tell the time...when it’s open. Oh and I forgot to mention the alarm sounds are right down obnoxious, and not in a good alarm kind of way. It seems it is time to move on.
Developer Response
Hi, Thanks for your much valuable response. We've taken care of some issues that you've mentioned here in the new update. We'll try to put your other suggestions in our next update.
Not for modern phones
gmeltzer1
I really wanted to like this app. It is broken, apparently irretrievably broken. On an iPhone 13 the en app brightness setting affect the central part of the screen, but leaves a bright, full brightness border around the outside. Not what you want at night, when I have the setting to lowest be glaring LED bezel is unchanged by my brightness settings. Plus, there’s no support. the developer website only talks about buying new projects from them. There is no option for support. One star that’s generous.
WEATHER READING DOESN’T SHOW UP
KrozNest
I bought this app solely because I wanted an alarm clock that would display the temperature. I have been disappointed because the temperature does not reliably appear on the display at all — and when I have been able to coax it into making an appearance, it doesn’t update as the temperature changes. Based on this, I would be leery of relying on the alarm function. Disappointed I spent $2.99 on it and have uninstalled it.
