User Reviews

Overall, users praise Big Clock HD for a clear, readable time-and-date display and a simple, night-friendly interface. Its on-screen brightness is easy to adjust, and landscape orientation helps readability on iPhone. However, several recurring issues dampen the experience: the app icon is not a live clock and often shows a fixed time, it cannot show the time when the app is closed due to iOS limitations, brightness adjustments can dim the whole device, and there are iOS compatibility problems that cause crashes on older versions. Color customization and resizing options are also limited.

Pros

Displays time and date clearly on screen.
Readable, minimalist display that is easy on the eyes for night use.
Brightness can be adjusted easily via on-screen swipe to dim or brighten.
Landscape orientation improves readability on iPhone.
Simple, reliable clock that serves its core function without unnecessary clutter.

Cons

App icon is not a live clock and often shows a static/fixed time.
Cannot show the time when the app is closed due to iOS limitations.
Brightness adjustments can dim the entire device and be hard to rebrighten.
Inconsistent iOS compatibility; some versions crash or require updates to function properly.
Limited visual customization (no color options, no resizing/cropping of the display).

$0.49 worth No deception here but somewhat disappointing. You can get only a black screen with white numbers. Can’t crop the screen to change size or location of text. Can’t use a calming color for numbers so it is white numbers you’ll see all night. I guess I got my 49 cents worth.

I liked it very much when it had a solid black background, they have updated it to a split background screen half gray and half black. I liked the basic solid black background with the time, day, and date.

I appreciate that this clock also displays the date and time. Some people have complained about the app icon not being a live clock. They do not understand that an app developer can only use a static image as an app icon. The Apple clock icon does show the actual time, but it does not open to a full screen clock which is the purpose of Big Cloch HD.
