Emerald Time

Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
Description
The iPhone's clock is pretty accurate. But we think several WHOLE SECONDS of error is too much! Emerald Time will show you the right time, usually to within 100 milliseconds of the coordinated standard atomic clocks, using Network Time Protocol.
Features:
- geeky stats
- blinky lights and numbers
- display options for 12- or 24-hour, UTC or local, seconds & tenths
- NTP accuracy
(Requires Internet access. Emerald Time does not change the internal clock used by all other iPhone apps.)
What's New in Version 1.5
- faster rejection of unresponsive servers
- removed "ptbtime1.ptb.de" and added "africa.pool.ntp.org" to the list of servers
- use 5 servers so that one bad one doesn't prevent a rapid sync
- minor bug fixes
- preliminary (beta) ipv6 support
Customer Reviews
Simple, accurate, to the point
All I wanted was an accurate NTP-derived clock and this app delivers exactly that with no extraneous features other than some stats from the servers.
Nearly perfect...
No need to go on about all the technical stuff, it's exactly what I wanted – and free too! I'm now feeling slightly guilty about not paying something for it. If you're craving a plain and simple (but accurate) NTP clock, this is the one for you.
Great App
I only connect my iPad to the cell network when I'm traveling, so the clock is usually off by several minutes. This app is always in sync to the official time when I check it, and is uncommonly thorough in its functionality and presentation.
