A Flip Clock is an application designed specifically for Apple TV that transforms your television screen into a large, easy-to-read flip clock display. The primary purpose is to provide a clear time display that can be viewed from across the room, making it suitable for all-day use as a decorative or functional clock.

The app includes several key features focused on display functionality. It has anti-idle technology enabled by default to keep the clock always on. Pixel shift functionality gently moves the image periodically to reduce the risk of static burn-in on OLED screens. Sound controls allow users to enable optional flip sounds and hourly announcements. Display options include showing seconds, displaying the date, and toggling between 12-hour and 24-hour formats.

Premium themes are available through an optional yearly subscription, offering a growing collection of visual styles that users can apply to personalize the clock appearance to match their space. The app operates by running continuously on Apple TV devices, maintaining the clock display while implementing protective measures for screen longevity.

The benefits include having a large, readable clock display for any room with an Apple TV, with customization options for both visual appearance and audio feedback. Use cases include using the app as a decorative element in living spaces, bedrooms, or offices where a prominent clock display is desired.

The target audience is Apple TV owners who want to use their television as a clock display. The app requires tvOS 18 or later and is categorized as a utility application. It integrates specifically with Apple TV platforms and includes in-app purchases for premium theme subscriptions.
