It actually works with your screen off, survives phone reboots, and never interrupts you with ads.

⏰ THE TALKING CLOCK THAT ACTUALLY WORKS
Unlike other time announcer apps, Talking Clock uses precise alarm scheduling to deliver announcements on time, every time. It runs as a foreground service so Android won't kill it in the background. It restarts automatically after your phone reboots. No more missed announcements.
