Description
It's AboutTime somebody wrote a clock like this. Let's be honest, apart from New Year's Eve when do you really need to know exactly what time it is to the nearest second? In these days of obsession with atomic clocks and split second timing isn't it refreshing to just kick back and say 'it's about five o'clock'?
AboutTime tells you 'about what time it is' featuring beautifully rendered typography on a light parchment background. AboutTime is bright during the day and dark at night so you'll always know if it's day or night (alternatively, you could just look out of the window). It makes an ideal (and unusual) bedside clock.
As well as telling the time in a unique and unconventional way, you can flip the pages to reveal entertaining quotes and musings on the nature of time itself.
Nowadays the App Store is flooded with clocks - do you really need another one? The answer is 'yes' if you're looking for something a bit different. AboutTime is a great conversation piece - use it when your phone is on charge in its dock and see what reaction you get from passers by.
Think of AboutTime as the anti-clock.

Cool App
This is a cool app. Does what it says. Easy to use and looks cool too. Response time from support team was fast. Very helpful and nice. ;)
Better than it could be, but not great overall
If this was just a "clock" then it would be a waste. However, the quotes really make it a cool app. Will I use it on a regular basis? No. But is better than just a clock? Yes.

I love the sleek look of the clock and it is becoming a quick favorite, however I wish that it's icon and opening screen (the one with the silly leather) matched the lovely sleek feel of the clock. I also wish it had an alarm function.
Change these things and my review will be a five!
