Carillon marks the quarter hours, the way a church bell or a village clock does.
At :15, :30 and :45 a short chime. On the hour, the hour is struck. It runs by itself through the hours you choose - no alarms to set, no notification to dismiss, no screen to unlock. You don't use it. You live inside it, and after a few days you find you always know roughly what time it is without having reached for anything.
DISCREET BY DESIGN
The chimes are quiet and sound like an ordinary notification. Nobody around you looks up, and you never have to explain why your phone rings like a bell tower. It follows your device's media volume, and respects Do Not Disturb and silent mode automatically.
HOURS YOU CAN ACTUALLY COUNT
Eleven identical strikes are impossible to count. Carillon groups them in fives, with a pause between groups - so eleven arrives as five, five, one. You hear the shape rather than counting the blows. The same grouping applies to the minutes, where counting fourteen chimes would otherwise be hopeless.
THE FULL REPETITION, ON DEMAND
Press the dial and the exact time is struck: the hour, then the quarters, then the minutes past the quarter - the acoustic time-telling of a minute repeater watch. Useful in the dark, in a meeting, while driving, or whenever looking at a screen would be rude or impossible.
WHO IT IS FOR
- Anyone who loses hours without noticing, and wants time to pass audibly
- People who find a gentle bell less jarring than an alarm
- Blind and low-vision users who want the time discreetly, without a screen reader announcing it to the room
- Anyone who likes bells
SET IT AND FORGET IT
Choose the hours it chimes, choose the volume, and leave it. It survives restarts and runs quietly in the background.
Recordings are made from a real bell. No account, no subscription, no tracking, no advertising.
A bell on every quarter hour. Discreet, automatic, and no alarms to set up.
