Signing in to a Google account stopped working on Android 2.3.7 and older in 2021, Google Play services stopped shipping updates for Android 4.4 KitKat in 2023, and most apps now require a much newer Android. A phone that can no longer install anything can still show the time.\n\nSo reteclock asks for nothing: no account, no network, no runtime permission. It runs on Android 2.3 and newer, and it is built and verified against Android 4.4.\n\nFeatures\n\n* Full-screen 24-hour clock with seconds, weekday, month, day and year.\n* Two layouts. Wide screen: a large HH:MM on the left, with seconds, weekday, date and year in a column on the right. Tall screen: hour and minute stacked, then the weekday with the date, then the year and the seconds.\n* The hour and the minute are as large as the screen allows. Space is reserved for the smaller lines first and everything left over goes to the big time, so nothing is ever clipped. They arrive bold, and you can turn that off.\n* Keeps the screen on while the clock is shown.\n* Burn-in protection: the drawing moves a few pixels every minute, when the displayed minute changes anyway, and works its way around a wide disc over a couple of hours, so an OLED panel does not burn in.\n* Starts when the charger is connected, and shows over the lock screen when started that way. This can be turned off.\n* Works as a system screensaver (Daydream) on Android 4.2 and newer, and from a desk dock.\n* Your own fonts. Add a font file and the clock draws in it — TrueType (.ttf), OpenType (.otf) or a collection (.ttc), with anything the device cannot read refused on the spot. The file goes through the system picker and is copied into the app, so reteclock still asks for n","categories":["Clock"]}
