TickTock Clock

A mechanical clock for a room that does not have one.

TickTock Clock ticks every second, marks the quarters, and strikes the hour — twelve
strikes at noon, one at one o'clock, the way a real case clock does. Leave it running
in the background and the room keeps time.

38 CLOCKS AND WATCHES

Every sound is a complete instrument: its own tick, its own tock, its own quarter mark
and hour chime. Browse them by family and switch at any time — a running clock changes
over on the very next beat.

- Wall Clock (18) — Vienna regulator, Black Forest cuckoo, Comtoise Morbier,
Westminster tower and rods, Whittington rods, schoolhouse oak, banjo timepiece,
Japanese pillar, railway platform escapement and more
- Wrist Watch (11) — minute repeaters in gold, silver, platinum, bronze and titanium,
a Westminster carillon repeater, high-beat flutter, chronograph rotor
- Ritual (4) — Prague Orloj, Zen temple, incense clock, ship's watch bell
- Pocket Watch (2) — Georgian fusée, lever pocket
- Focus (2) — air motion, brown noise

CHIMES ON YOUR TERMS

Quarter marks and the hour chime each have their own switch, globally and per sound.
Keep the ticking and silence the chimes, or run a clock that only speaks on the hour.

QUIET AT NIGHT

The chimes stay silent between ten at night and seven in the morning, so an overnight
clock does not strike twelve at midnight. One switch turns that off if you want the
full night watch.

BUILT TO RUN IN THE BACKGROUND

The clock keeps ticking while you use other apps or the screen is off, with a
notification carrying a stop button. An optional floating button puts the clock one
tap away from wherever you are.

The tick is driven by a low-latency audio path rather than a media player, because a
clock that drifts is not a clock. The beat runs off the main thread so an animating
screen cannot make it skip.

NO ACCOUNT, NO ADS, NO INTERNET

The app requests no internet permission at all. Nothing is uploaded, nothing is
tracked, no account is needed, and every sound is bundled with the app. It works the
same in aeroplane mode.

ABOUT THE SOUNDS

Every clock sound in this app is AI-generated. None of them are recordings of real
clocks, including the presets named after specific instruments.
