Big Clock overview

Big Clock is a simple application that displays a floating clock which can be made large enough to be easily seen from across the room. This is ideal for users who need to keep track of time at a glance while moving around at a distance from the computer's display. Big Clock's primary interface is a status item menu located in the menu bar. The clock's display can be configured via a preferences dialog. Color, transparency and size can all be adjusted.

Big Clock also can do very basic session timing and alert you at specific intervals, via your configured system alert settings. This can prompt you to make sure time is not getting away from you.

Big Clock supports following your 12hr or 24hr time display preferences configured in the System Preferences -> Locale & Region. Or, you can override this setting for specific needs.

What’s new in version 2

Version 2:
  • Updates for Mojave
  • Fixed minor bugs.
  • Added menu item to center clock on screen. This is helpful if the clock goes entirely off screen.

Yeah, this clock is a lifesaver, bro. When my computer is out of commission, the first thing I think of is, "How am I getting up tomorrow?" But yeah, the whole no sleeping thing would be a nice feature.

Great clock, I found it to be better than my actual alarm. It woke me up all but one time. I would recomend this to anybody. The only thing that I would rate as negative about this clock, is that you can not put your computer to sleep, and expect it to come back on.

Simple, easy to use, and it wakes me up. I give it an A+! (Use M to minimize, it took me a while to figure that out!)
