Tap a colour to try it on the Home Screen

Ten dials. Pick one.

Five flat colours, free. Five textured faces after classic watch dials, with the unlock.

Chinese writes numbers more than one way. 一 二 三 for every day. 壹 貳 叄 on banknotes and cheques. 〡 〢 〣 on the old market stalls of Suzhou. Hanzi Clock puts them on a dial, each written the way a native reader expects.

Three steps to your Home Screen

1

Swipe to a dial

The app is one row of desk clocks. Swipe through them, tap the one you like.

Wherever your iPhone shows the time

A bedside clock in StandBy

Turn your iPhone on its side while it charges and the dial sits beside your calendar.

Dark at night

After dark, StandBy shows only the numerals, dimmed to red, so the room stays dark.

The night face: red numerals on black

A calendar beside the dial

The wide widget adds a month, a week, the date, the moon or the solar term.

A seconds hand that ticks

Right on the widget, once a second, like a quartz clock.
