About Nightglow

Night Clock gives your old iPhone a beautiful second life. Set that spare or retired iPhone on your nightstand or desk, turn it sideways, and it becomes a gorgeous always-on clock — inspired by iOS StandBy mode, but delightfully simple. No accounts. No setup. No clutter. Just open it and it works. THREE CLEAN MODES • Analog — a classic clock face with local weather and battery status • Digital 12h — a full-screen 7-segment LED display of hours and minutes • Digital 24h — a 7-segment display with hours, minutes, and seconds SIMPLE BY DESIGN • Swipe left or right to switch modes • Swipe up or down anywhere to set the perfect nighttime brightness • Remembers your last mode, so it's ready the moment you open it • Screen stays on, so the time is always there when you glance over • Nothing pops up at launch — weather and Home access are asked for only when you turn those features on MAKE IT YOURS • Weather in °C or °F — set to your region by default, yours to change • Pick the clock color with a slider and watch it change live • Choose when the battery indicator appears, or keep it always on • Reset every setting in one tap SMART CHARGING (optional) Keep your old battery healthy. Pick a Home-compatible smart plug that powers the charger, and Night Clock switches it on when the battery drops to your chosen level and off when it's charged enough — so the phone isn't held at 100% around the clock. MADE FOR OLD DEVICES Don't retire your lovely old iPhone in a drawer. Night Clock runs beautifully on older models and turns them into the perfect bedside or desk clock — useful, elegant, and effortless. That's it. A clock that does one thing wonderfully. COMPATIBILITY & FEATURES BY DEVICE Some features depend on how new your iPhone is. The clock itself works on every supported device — the extras switch on for newer models: • iPhone 8 and newer — full experience, including local weather and optional smart charging through Home. iPhone 8 is the oldest model that supports weather and Home. • iPhone 7, iPhone 7 Plus, iPhone 6s, iPhone 6s Plus, and iPhone SE (1st gen) — the clock, color, brightness, and battery features work great, but weather and Home are not available on these models, so those features are automatically hidden. Either way, your old iPhone makes a wonderful bedside clock.
