Description

This clock app makes it easy for people with dementia or Alzheimer's to keep track of time. It can help to avoid phone calls in the middle of the night! You can set up periods of the day such as Morning, Afternoon, Tea time etc. For each period you can say when it starts and finishes, and which days it occurs.
Although it comes set up with reasonable default values it is highly configurable.
The display can give just the day of the week and the period of the day. There is also the option of displaying the actual time and/or date if required.
You can adjust the sizes of the various display elements to suit your needs and also select a contrasting colour scheme for some periods, e.g. dark colours during the night.
Full help is built into the app. You can save your settings to a file for backup or transfer to another device.
The idea is based on the old Unix fuzzy clock and research done by the Bath Institute of Medical Engineers.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

Don't hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or concerns.

5 ★Simple and effective, responsive developer as well!
5 ★A visual and easy way to tell the time just by looking straight at the phone, at any point in time it's easy, to use, for older people with dementia and also for younger children that learning to tell the time and also if it's near bedtime as well for them, and I hope to see some more from the app author. 5 🌟
5 ★I love it
5 ★I have installed this app on an old tablet computer and have put the tablet inside a photo frame (to prevent curiosity interfering with it). I have test driven it at my house and have now installed it at my mother's. I hope that the customised night-time message I have set will reduce or even eliminate the calls I have been getting in the middle of the night. Fingers crossed. Thanks peterthevicar
5 ★My parents both have Alzheimer's and I have been looking for an app like this for many months, to work on an old Nexus 7 tablet. It is really simple to use and configure. Well done.
5 ★My father has dementia and this app is a absolute god send. Thank You developer.
5 ★THANK YOU for your efforts to develop this app which has the potential to help so many. My father-in-law suffers from dementia following a stroke and had been very confused about the time of day (morning, afternoon, evening, night), especially in the winter when it is dark outside at both 6:30 am and pm. I would be very interested in consulting/helping to further develop the app to tweak a few options and/or add some new functionality. Thanks again!
5 ★Flexible to allow me to include all regular activities as well as the day of the week. Helps to answer her regular question "what do I do now? "
5 ★If you have cared for someone with dementia or Alzheimer's you will understand how frustrating sundowning and the loss of time concept is. There are special clocks that are expensive and hard to get most places. With this you simply use an old phone or tablet. Thank you Peterthevicar.
5 ★Simple, effective and very useful for everyone. Something we should all consider using well before problems materialise to ensure its in the long term memory bank !!
5 ★OK I wrote it but it's flexible and simple and stops elderly relative ringing us at silly o'clock!
5 ★Nice
