Just what I was looking for.

Looks great, very readable and accessible and works perfectly. I love the byo-yomi mode programmed in as I couldn’t find that on any other game clock app!
Much better than the other chess clock

I like how customizable this one is. I really like the hourglass timer.
Truly good and free

Free, high-quality, no ads, no in-app purchases, and lots of flexibility. How many other App Store apps can say the same?

My son and I were playing chess and he said we should get a clock. This app is perfect for us because it includes so many built in settings and gives us the experience of play with the clock. Thanks for a great app!
The best clock in the App Store

Thanks to the developer for addressing everything I had mentioned in the original review. This app is fantastic and by far the best clock on the App Store. If you play chess, you should definitely get this one. It's a convenient and easy to use clock! Original Review: I'm surprised to see so few reviews for this nice piece of software. It has a bunch of relevant game modes, delay types, has an easy to read high contrast display, and has a big touch response area so it's hard to miss. There are a few suggestions that I think would help improve this app: 1) The interface is not as elegant as it could be. This isn't a huge issue because it's not bad and certainly simple compared to most physical clocks. It's just not as nice as some of the other apps here. But seeing that this app does so much more, it may not be possible to clean this up. 2) I would like to see additional warning sounds as well. For example the DGT clocks I use have a nice short beep for each second from 10-1 and then a loud and long beep signaling that player has ran out of time. I think the current beep is perfect for the initial beeps but it would be useful to have something louder and more obvious to end the match. 3) Along the same lines of the warning sounds, it would be nice to have a volume slider for clicks and warning sounds. I like having the click sounds to have the auditory feedback, but I feel like the clicks have to be very loud in order to make the beeps loud enough to be useful. These are fairly minor and doesn't take away from the fact that this is a terrific chess clock!
Perfect

This is just an amazing Chess Clock. The change of size of the tap button on every move is wonderful. Congrats, I love this from an Interaction Design standpoint. Super clean and simple design with all the features you'd expect.
