About this app

Turn any phone or tablet into a beautiful always-on desk clock — with an optional built-in home monitor.

Dot Matrix Clock shows the time in a crisp, retro dot-matrix style with 30 hand-crafted clock faces, from classic LED to minimal, neon, 7-segment and premium full-width designs. Prop your device on a desk, nightstand or shelf and it becomes a gorgeous ambient display.

CLOCK & DISPLAY
• 30 clock faces — swipe to change, or auto-rotate hourly
• 12/24-hour, optional seconds, date & live weather
• Battery %, hourly chime and hourly voice announcement
• Per-face size and layout controls

EASY TO USE
• Swipe to change face, long-press for settings, double-tap to dim
• Keep-screen-on for a true always-on clock

NIGHT MODE & POWER SAVING
• Dim mode dims the screen so it never glares at night
• Auto-dim after a few idle minutes and slow the refresh to save battery — like an ambient always-on display

OPTIONAL CAMERA MONITOR
Reuse an old phone as a simple home/room camera:
• View the camera live in any web browser on the same Wi-Fi
• Optional secure remote viewing from anywhere
• Listen to the microphone, take snapshots and record clips
• Motion auto-record — save a clip automatically when movement is detected, on a schedule you choose
• Choose 480p / 720p / 1080p quality

PRIVACY FIRST
• The camera is completely optional and off until you turn it on
• Weather uses a fixed city, never your device's GPS
• No ads, no analytics, no accounts, no tracking
• Full policy: https://ranasikander.com/dotmatrixclock-privacy.html

Perfect as a bedside clock, desk clock, kitchen clock or a second-life for an old device.
