About this app

Your phone charges on the nightstand. You glance over and see your favorite photos drifting by, a retro flip clock counting the seconds, or today's calendar and the local weather at a glance. That's StandBy โ€”
an ambient always-on display that turns your charging Android into a beautiful nightstand clock, photo frame, and personal dashboard.

Lay your charging phone in landscape and StandBy activates automatically. No shortcuts, no taps, no setup. Plug in, tilt sideways, and StandBy does the rest.

๐Ÿ“ฑ 6 DISPLAY MODES

๐Ÿ• CLOCK โ€” 14 FACES TO CHOOSE FROM
Pick the one that fits your space:
โ€ข Digital โ€” crisp and immediate, with custom text colors and 6 fonts
โ€ข Liquid Glass โ€” translucent, frosted-glass digits with soft depth
โ€ข LED โ€” glowing segmented digits, like a classic bedside LED clock
โ€ข Neon โ€” a warm neon-tube glow that lights up the dark
โ€ข Classic Analog โ€” timeless face, outer rim, 12 ticks, red second hand
โ€ข Modern Analog โ€” refined, with hour numerals and a smooth sweep
โ€ข Rectangular Analog โ€” bold perimeter-tick face built for landscape
โ€ข Retro Flip (Light) โ€” classic split-flap, white flaps, black digits
โ€ข Retro Flip (Dark) โ€” cinematic Solari board, charcoal and white
โ€ข Retro Flip (Amber) โ€” warm vintage Nixie-tube glow
โ€ข Retro Flip (Graphite) โ€” cool slate-gray slats, understated
โ€ข Kรธbenhavn, Milano & Frankfurt โ€” designer split-flap faces (optional one-time unlock)

๐Ÿ“ท PHOTOS
Your gallery, beautifully displayed. StandBy cross-fades through photos from your device while it charges. Set your slideshow interval โ€” always fresh, always yours.

๐Ÿ“… WIDGETS
A live dashboard: time, date, battery level, and today's calendar events โ€” color-coded with time ranges. Choose analog or digital clock style. Know what's next without picking up your phone.

๐ŸŒค WEATHER
Today's conditions at a glance โ€” current temperature, a clear condition icon, and today's high and low. Use automatic location or set your city by hand, switch between ยฐC and ยฐF, and choose Vivid or
Monochrome icons. Two layouts: a weather-forward Minimal face, or a Clock + Weather split.

๐Ÿ’ฌ QUOTES
A hand-curated collection of thoughtful, rotating quotes. Calm, minimal, quietly inspiring โ€” a gentle way to start the morning or wind down before sleep.

๐Ÿ”€ DUO โ€” TWO DISPLAYS AT ONCE
Split the screen and pair a clock with the info you want beside it. One side keeps your favorite clock face; the other shows Weather, Calendar, or Events. Build your combination in the Duo composer, add pages
per side, and swap sides any time.

โšก SMART AUTOMATIC ACTIVATION
StandBy watches charging and orientation quietly in the background. Plug in and lay the phone in landscape โ€” it starts. Unplug or stand it up โ€” it gracefully steps away. It also works as a system Screen
Saver: enable it once in Settings โ†’ Display โ†’ Screen saver, and StandBy takes over whenever your phone sits idle on the charger.

โœจ THOUGHTFUL DETAILS
๐Ÿ”‹ Battery ring โ€” an elegant charge indicator, in vivid (green/amber/red) or monochrome, on any mode.
๐ŸŒ™ Auto night dimming โ€” softens the screen in dark rooms, easy on your eyes.
๐ŸŽจ Fonts & colors โ€” 6 typefaces plus custom clock and date colors.
๐Ÿ‘ Full-screen preview โ€” see how each mode looks before it activates, one tap from anywhere in Settings.
โ†” Swipe to switch โ€” slide between all six modes any time.
๐Ÿ’พ Remembers your last mode โ€” picks up right where you left off.
๐Ÿ”Œ OEM-aware reliability โ€” guided setup deep-links to battery optimization on Samsung, Xiaomi, and more so the service keeps running.

๐ŸŽ FREE TO USE โ€” NO ADS
No ads, no subscriptions. All 6 display modes, 11 clock faces, photo slideshow, live calendar widget, weather, Duo split screen, and quotes are free. A few designer flip faces are an optional one-time unlock
โ€” everything else is yours at no cost.
