About this app

Boring Clock is a word clock widget for your Android home screen. Instead of numbers, it spells out the time in words: IT IS HALF PAST TEN. It's a minimal, aesthetic text clock that looks like an object rather than an app.

It's called boring because it does one thing, quietly: it shows the time in words and stays out of your way.

FOUR CLOCK WIDGETS
• Graphite: the plain letter grid, no chrome. 2×2 or 4×4.
• Bloom: glowing letters with a date column. 4×2.
• Console: a bezel, a date strip and minute dots. 4×4.
• Verse: the time set as a sentence, in large type. 4×2.

PREMIUM MATERIALS (PRO)
• Etched brass: a milled plate with warm filament light.
• Warm paper: pressed card with ink letters.
• Anodised aluminium: a brushed face with one raking highlight.

MAKE IT YOURS
• Five highlight colours: Blurple, Brass, Phosphor, Paper and Ember, a dim red for dark rooms.
• Ten backgrounds, from deep ink to slate, moss and bronze.
• Seven fonts: DM Mono, Poppins, Nunito, Raleway, Quicksand, Tomorrow and Roboto.
• Changes show on the widget straight away.

TIMED MESSAGES Write your own line and give it a time window. It appears under the clock at that time and disappears when the window ends. Use it as a gentle reminder, a note to yourself, or a nudge to stand up and stretch.

TEN LANGUAGES The word clock reads the time in English, Deutsch, Español, Français, Italiano, Português, Nederlands, Svenska, Русский and हिन्दी.

LIGHT ON YOUR BATTERY The widget redraws once every five minutes through your launcher's own update. Nothing runs in the background.
