About Chess Clock

Replace your chess clock with this free game timer! It's easy to use, yet fully featured to handle any time control. 100% free: no in-app purchases, no ads!

Choose your time control and you're ready to play. The 2nd player presses her button to start the 1st player's clock - and the game is on!

FEATURES
- Large, easy-to-read buttons
- Works in landscape and portrait on all devices
- Quickly customize the app for one-tap access to all your favorite time controls
- Time controls include base minutes per player and optional per-move delays or bonus time. The app supports both Fischer and Bronstein increments, as well as simple delays. The duration is up to you!
- Supports multiple-stage time controls commonly seen in tournaments, such as "40 moves in 2 hours + game in 60 minutes." A glance at the clock shows your current stage!
- Clock pauses automatically if the app is interrupted; manually pause the clock at any time
- Pleasant sounds for buttons and "time's up" alert

At Chess.com, we really do love chess, and *sometimes* we even play it offline! For times like that, we created this clock - and we hope you love it as much as we do.

by R####:

I wish there was a second click sound. Some people tap twice because they were expecting the click sound. Good clock though. Edit: am I missing something? How do you set different times?

R70%
by R####:

I tried this up on my new note 7 but to display seams to be distorted it appears to be too large for the screen and there seems to be no way to adjust it

W70%
by W####:

Cannot select clocks to edit or delete, must create each timer from scratch. Had to reinstall to clear unused timers. No easy way to set a time per turn. The interface is confusing and clearly doesn't work as intended. This app clearly wasn't finished when it was released, and the developers don't seem interested in fixing the several problems with their app. 1/5 because not only is this app absolute trash, but the developers appear to be absent and silent in response to the user's cries.

R70%
by R####:

When the time runs out timer turns red and by pressing on it, asks you to reset the clock. This is bad because if players don't see that the time has run out the game continues. The clock shouldn't warn you that the time has run out.

R70%
by R####:

Great app to suit most situations including custom designed multi-stage time controls. Only two real drawbacks are: - Not possible to have different times for each player - Increments (Fischer/Bronstein/Delay) can only be applied from move 1

L70%
by L####:

Just need a option to modify the time after the game was began. Example add 02 minutes after a illegal move. And a option to put a different time control for each player.

T70%
by T####:

I brought this clock as a project for science in my 5th grade class. Long story short, teacher thought I was gonna Allahu akbar the school and called police, and I ended up getting a scholarship to MIT. 5 stars

R70%
by R####:

The digit displayed is not good. When there is 2 digit minutes the last digit in seconds goes out of screen and the control buttons are not visible. The design and graphics should be improved.

R70%
by R####:

the clock works well, but my biggest problem is that it runs 99% of the time and therefore locks down precious RAM even days after I used it last. force stop does not help.

R70%
by R####:

This app is very good but there is still scope for improvement. They could add some changes through which different timings can be set for two players. If this app can set different timings for the players, then it would be unbeatable. Otherwise everything else is fine.

U70%
by U####:

Sometimes there is a momentary delay when activating. Notification chime of time running out would be a good idea to improve the app. Great for speed Jenga.

R70%
by R####:

It is only missing an option to set different time controls for the two players and possibly a warning when the time is running out

R70%
by R####:

please fix time out sound problem.

K70%
by K####:

This is an easy to use app, but there is no chime or alarm that sounds when the time runs out. That's a pretty big deal! If the developer adds that this is an awesome app.

K70%
by K####:

This clock has delay, brostein and Fischer options for time increment. Though the app looks good a theme option would be even more awesome

B70%
by B####:

If there is a way to set different times per player this would be a decent chess clock. If I'm just missing how to do this, someone email me rickcr at Gmail. The clock itself is nice but I need optional player time controls (which pretty much every other chess clock app has.)

K70%
by K####:

Great chess clock app. You can change the delay settings on the clock, nice feature. One problem as mentioned by others I can't delete old individual clock profiles.

H70%
by H####:

I can't seem to figure out how to delete settings. I think it should be the button at the top, next to the button to create profiles, but I can't select any settings to either delete or edit. Furthermore, I am actually looking for a setting that gives me an x amount of time per turn. The closest I could get with this app was either Fischer or setting a delay (but then I can't see how much time I spent on the turn).

E70%
by E####:

Need feature which provides the option to set different type of increments for each stage. Seems the increment we set is common to all the stages. Please consider to add this feature.

K70%
by K####:

I wish there was a second click sound. Some people tap twice because they were expecting the click sound. Good clock though.

K70%
by K####:

This chess clock has almost everything except a place which tells whether the side is white or black.

Z70%
by Z####:

Please add the interface preferences, and the "clicking" sound every move. The clicking just occur in a few opening steps, and gone... kinda throw the hype away of the game, especially the thrill of bullet. And the last one it didn't have compared by the other apps, a handicap feature.. I can't seem to find any option for a handicapped match, which is to set each player's time differently. After this all set and done, I'll give 5 stars

K70%
by K####:

Theme should be like real chess clock ......otherwise good

I played with my friends using this, and it really helped when I wanted to use clock. Keep up the work :)

Must have alarm when time runs out. I will give it 5 star. The best user interface.

Ooo my goooooddddddddddddd it is such a nice app i fell in love with this app toooooo gooodd developers have done a great job

No provision for setting different times for players. Plus cannot delete time controls

This one

K70%
by K####:

Love that it works without disrupting the music I'm playing

K70%
by K####:

I wish it had an option where you can set the timer for one minute and then it resets or restarts on each side.

K70%
by K####:

Ive seen better. There is no alert when a clock runs out of time, and once you add clocks there is no way to delete them. Deleting is apparently a thing from the pictures in the app description but that function does not work at all, at least not on my phone. Fix these and I would rate 5 stars.

K70%
by K####:

U can set ur own custom time + increment.

K70%
by K####:

The one star missing is when I wrongly press the setting or restart button, it interrupted my blitz game. If you can do something about it, my 5star is yours!!

P70%
by P####:

Just needs a move/turn counter and it'd be about perfect.

K70%
by K####:

Needs to be able to remove custom timers. On note 3 not possible.

U70%
by U####:

It's the best of over 200 chess clock apps i checked out. Jst one thing though, an icon to indicate who is black n who is white should be added to the time boxes. Really great app!

X70%
by X####:

It's very good app but something wrong with the display with my Samsung S5, 2nd sec zero shows below in each side. Fix it soon.

X70%
by X####:

Despite people complaining about game time options, with 5 seconds of exploring the settings page you will find it is 100% customizable. This app is much more versatile than a typical chess clock.

X70%
by X####:

There are no sound (and vibration) whatsoever for alerting a player whose time is in crisis.
