EPIC watch app! If you want an accurate analog watch/clock app this is the one to get – Emerald Geneva Review

This app is simply amazing. I'm a watch geek and I like to keep my collection set to the second, or at least check them when I put one on in the morning if I don't set it. Up until now I was using my iPhone clock with a simple clock app to set the time. I was starting to get upset with all my watches because they were gaining or losing time almost every time I checked them. Something wasn't right! I realized that even though the iPhone automatically synchronizes to the cell phone tower that clock in the AT$T tower can be seconds or even MINUTES off. They don't bother to keep them accurate because it isn't worth it to them to bother. Frankly, they just don't give a frak. I was using the free Emerald Time app to check the iPhone for accuracy but it is harder to set a watch when you have to convert a number to a second-hand's movement. You really need to have both clocks be analog to do it quickly and easily. Unfortunately Emerald Time does not have an analog face -only a digital one. This app is worth it just for the analog clock face but it does SO MUCH MORE. It's just simply amazing. The only thing I could ask is an option to switch the second hand from a smooth sweep to a 1/sec tick which would make it easier to set my watches that have that -although the smooth sweep is better for setting the Rolly. An option to change back and forth would be nice! I'll give it a 4.9 star and round it up as it isn't a BIG deal. Oh, and maybe make the second hand a little easier to see in "night" mode. Those two would be nice, though, as updates in the future... Can't think of anything else to add other than the impossible wish that the app could actually "fix" the wrong iPhone time :( Boo on the apple side for that FAIL. Can't blame the developers for the rules they must labor under and the limitations of the phone itself -or at least the way it is locked up. This app probably does half a million things that I've not even figured out yet!
