About Big Night Clock
Big Night Clock is a small application that displays a large clock on your device’s screen. What makes it different from all others, is the fact that it exploits the ability of the human brain to reconstruct the missing parts of the geometrical figures, in this case the characters that make up the hours and minutes. So even expanding the numbers on the clock as much as to exceed the physical edge of the device, you’ll still be able to figure out the right time, with the advantage of being visible from far away. A great help for those wearing glasses during the day, but don’t wear them while they’re in bed.
It is equipped with a number of customizable settings that combine ease of use and completeness.
You can, directly from the main screen:
- Move the clock’s digits by swiping.
- Pinch to zoom in/out.
- Rotate it by rotating two fingers on screen.
Other settings are available by pressing your device’s "menu" button and selecting the “Customize current preset” option or by double tapping the screen.
From here you can change:
- Selection and name of the active preset. There are three configurable presets. They appear as menu shortcuts.
- Screen brightness.
- Font Color.
- Background color.
- The font to use.
- Display style.
- Border’s thickness.
- Border’s color.
- Clock’s position.
The "Global settings" menu item is where you can:
- Lock the screen, so you do not accidentally move the clock.
- Set the time format AM/PM or 24h.
- Keep the screen on while the phone is charging.
- Keep the screen on while the phone is running on battery.
- Turn off the power when the battery is low.
- Use the "Anti burn in" to avoid this phenomenon. (*)
From the "Other" menu, you can select:
- About: some information about the application and its authors.
- Set Alarm: a shortcut for setting the alarm on your device. (**)
- Online Help: open the online help. (***)
- Online FAQ: open the online Frequently Asked Questions. (***)
- Online ChangeLog: open the online description of the latest updates. (***)
- Report a Bug: If you find something wrong that is not described in the online pages, please let us know by sending us an email.
(*) See your device’s instructions to check if it’s screen is more or less sensitive to burn-in (image retention).
(**) Not supported by some devices.
(***) Requires an active internet connection.

On my Android p ad the power lead plugs in half way along the long side. If I position the pad so that the clock is the correct way around the pad is resting on the power lead putting strain on the socket. If I rotate the pad so that the lead is at the top the clock display is upside down. Can you please use the position sensor to orientated the clock correctly when the pad is rotated? Thank you

I don't like the padded zero so I won't use it and there is no option like most clock programs, to get rid of the zero.

More options than I expected. I don't like the way you can drag the clock around the screen, not sure what that's for. Would be really cool if I could make this clock my lock screen.

Superb App. Just what I've been looking for... A large (adjustable size) time face and also one that is easy-on-the-eyes red. Definitely worth 5 stars. A big thank you to the Developer.

Does exactly what you expect it do, and probably more. I like that you can move it so freely and rescale it with ease.

Does exactly what it says on the tin and free with no ads. Unfortunately after using it for a while I find that it won't keep all the settings, i.e. It will keep the colour and font but not the size or position between uses. Irritating so it won't be used much.

Overall I love this app and use it nightly. However, I've run into a problem: On my new phone I can't set the options. Please add an Options button. Details: On my old Samsung S5, a long press on the Recent Apps button brought up an app's Options menu, but on my new Samsung Note 5 a long press on the Recent Apps button splits the screen.

Very customisable. Ad free. Simple. Only thing that doesn't work is the 'anti screen burn'.

Just right. Fills the screen in landscape. Set to black background, grey numbers - easy to see in the dark and uses very little battery.

I offered a suggestion for an option to allow a border to the outside of the screen and they emailed me back saying they would do it with the next update... that was years ago. The idea is that having an outside border (especially red) gives the illusion that the black background is blacker. That would be nice, especially if you use this as a bedside clock.

Perfect that I can adjust the size with just touch. Would have given 5 stars if the clock layout was more like a standard digital clock

Hi! It's good adjustable clock. Can u plz also add an option to Global Settings to block physical keys, not only screen, and to launch ur clock through defined time like screensaver. I want a feature on my SAMOLED display to have it always switched ON when I press my blocking key and bring it easily to my pocket without accidental pressings. It'd be useful to have an option to toggle showing the formatted date on screen too. And it should have a notification to avoid disappearing from RAM. Thx!
