A timeless (ahem) classic!
I have been a user of this app ever since it was released and it is always one of the first apps I install on a new device.
Description
This tool shows you the ultimate precise time of day. To achieve this, it uses a special internet time protocol to fetch the time from an atomic time server.
We are proud to offer version 5 of the Gorgy Timing Atomic Clock. The program is one of the classic applications since the early days of the Apple App Store and has been continually improved based on user feedback.
The Gorgy Timing Atomic Clock shows the precise time of day. To achieve this, it uses a special internet time protocol to fetch the ultimate precise time from cesium atomic clocks available on the internet, or any other time server you like.
The graphical display mimics the clock display of the legendary Gorgy Timing clocks, which are used in professional radio and television studios, and we spent much effort to bring the original feeling of these wickedly expensive clocks to your iPhone. This app is used by BBC studios, astronomers, concert promoters, etc.
Version 5 contains the following functions:
* Universal support for all iPhone, iPad and iPod touch devices running iOS 12, iPadOS 12, watchOS 4 or higher
* Optimized for the latest iOS, iPadOS and watchOS, full 64 bit support
* Alarm function with snooze (touch anywhere on the screen), volume fade-in, based on weekdays
* Alarm time based on seconds (not minutes)
* Local time / UTC time mode
* Alarm notification window instead of normal alarm sound, if app is not running or in the background
* Use playlists or a manual picker selection from your own music library as alarm sounds
* The alarm sound is also playing when the device is muted, or the display is switched off, and also works in AirPlay environments
* Customizable time server sources
* Colors: green, red, blue, yellow, white, dark green, violet, pink, orange, turquoise and hidden, with a separate color option for digits, seconds and segments
* Alternative visual display of fractional seconds (1/60th sec. resolution)
* 12/24 hours display
* Optional second tick sound
* Full landscape support (including settings dialog)
* Touching the display lets the buttons and status bar fade out
* Touching the display again will add the current date (in all orientations)
* Disabled screen auto-lock
* Options "sync at startup", "hourly", "daily", or a sync button for manual syncing
* The last known time delta is used when started without sync
* "Night mode", which dims the display using a slider, shows the seconds with only one dot (to prevent a hard brightness switch between second 59 and second 0), switches off the tick sound, and reduces screen updates to save battery
* To minimize burn-in effects (especially on the iPhone X OLED display), the clock is doing micro movements when running longer than 5 minutes
* VoiceOver support
Answers to common questions:
* An application can not set your device's system time, so a time sync between the atomic time and the device time is not possible.
* If you want to wakeup with music, please do not exit the app before going to sleep (which would result in a local notification dialog without music in the morning), and do not lock your device. Be aware that running an application all the time, even without display, consumes battery, so please make sure that your iPhone is fully charged before you go to bed, connect it to your charger, or use the app's Night mode, which is much more energy-saving.

Unique clock app very very truthful to original
Great author keeps true to the original and updates will arrive if needed ~ like when someone sends in a video of a new physical one they have with a slightly different twist to it. Plus of course an ideal software clock for your iPhone to keep you on time with your presentation in these modern times. Or if you are a studio manager.
Longevity
This remains the only third-party app I still use that I had installed on my first iPhone 3. It does one thing, but it does it brilliantly!
If you set time code this is essential!
Useful bit of kit. I have used this for setting time code generators as well as counting a program off-air when the gallery clock failed! Highly recommended.
Great!
Perfect app for precise timing of medical procedures. The seconds display is clear and unambiguous.
Atomic clock
The go to time check!
Great Clock
I have used this clock for several years now. I especially use it on New Years Eve, you’ll have to get it to find out what it does.
Atomic clock
My favorite go–to app when setting watches and clocks. It's my goto whenever I am setting the 5imeon clocks and watches.
Perfect
I use this app once a week to wind and set my collection of mechanical clocks. Very easy to see and the sound is helpful. Thank you.
Brilliant...
At least one person in my family has had this brilliant app on their iPhone since the developer first released it. Now I have it on my iPhone 11 & Apple Watch, I love it! I have recommended it to many people and I hope they too have downloaded it & are loving it as much as we do... 👍😍
