HeyClock is designed to help manage time-blindness and serve as an audible reminder system.
• Speaks the time out loud, along with an optional custom message
• Set routine alarms (repeat regularly on certain days of the week) or temporary alarms (activate once and then disappear, for one-time events).
• Alarms can be single (alarm sounds once) or interval (alarm sounds at regular intervals within a time window).
• Works from the background. Alarms will sound even if your phone is locked or another app is in use, as long as HeyClock is open on your phone.
• Choose notification style: voice, voice and notification, or notification only.
• Choose which voice HeyClock uses for alarms
• HeyClock monitors the time by checking GPS timestamps from your phone’s Location Services.
There are two GPS options:
- Regular GPS Pings: Checks GPS timestamps about once every 15 seconds to five minutes, depending on the amount of time until the next alarm.
- GPS Low Power: Alarms will only activate if you are near a Home Location. Set up to three different Home Locations.
Use this mode to conserve battery power, or if you do not want alarms to go off when you are out and about.
To try out the app before committing to the purchase, check out HeyClock Lite on the app store, which works the same way but has fewer customization options and can store only two routines at a time.
