Free. No tracking, ads or in-app purchases. No need for special permissions. It works even without wifi or cell service. There is no visual clutter. A simple, sincere app. Simply install it and then run.
The clock will continue to work until you turn off your phone or switch to another app. The clock will remain on your phone until you unlock it.
As shown in the screenshot, there are nine color options that range from high contrast to low-contrast.
It works on tablets and older phones.
It is useful as a bedside clock, or as a glance-in clock during Zoom meetings, client meetings, and on-stage speeches and performances.
Red setting is an option that preserves night vision. It is useful for camping and sailing at night.
Do not overload with unnecessary settings or content. By design, it is simple.
This app is not for you if you enjoy lots of content and fiddly-bits.

No weather
No day or date of the week
This is not a countdown timer (that’s my next app).
No alarm — your existing phone alarm will continue to work
No cute icons (clutter that makes it harder to read).
— No seconds (allows for the display to be as large as possible).
There is no choice in fonts, but you get a well-chosen font that is easy to read.
No optional backgrounds (plain almost black for low power usage, numbers clear)
Do not give negative reviews for an app that the clock was not intended to do. If you have any questions about other apps, please contact me.
What Motivated Me to Build It? My mom, who has low vision, complained that she couldn’t read the time on her smartphone. She then said, “What’s all the fuss about?” There are too many settings for apps to handle. They are difficult to read.” A neighbor then said something similar. It serves as an all-in-one clock that I can see clearly from far away, day or night. I am a one-person app developer. It is my hope that it will make a difference in people’s lives.
User Data: The app does not collect any data about the user, including location or device information. There is nothing collected. Visit the app’s privacy policy at http://astonishinc.com/apps/privacy-policy for full details.
It is always free. It is free forever. I hope it helps. I have no marketing budget. Spread the word if it is of interest to you. Don’t forget about your friends, neighbors, and relatives with lower vision. These people have difficulty searching the Play Store and are unable to install apps.
