Ships Clock Maritime Bells

The finest maritime clock ever made for iPhone, Ship's Clock brings five hundred years of seafaring tradition into your pocket — eight bells, every watch, every hour, every day and every night. It is the timepiece sailors have always wanted: rigorous, beautiful, alive.

At sea, time has always been measured in bells. The day breaks into four-hour watches, each one marked by the strike of a bell on the half hour and the hour. One bell at thirty minutes past, two at the next hour, three at the half, building to eight bells as the watch comes to an end and the next begins. Ship's Clock keeps that exact rhythm. Whether your phone is in your hand, on the dresser, or charging by the bed, the bells ring, the day acquires order, and you find yourself moving with the watches.

Five authentic bells are included, each hand-recorded from a different source. Brass is the classic ship's bell — bright, clear, the chime familiar to anyone who has spent time on the water. Iron Bell is heavier and deeper, the kind hung at harbor stations. Harbor Call rolls in with the resonance of a working dock at first light. Sonar Ping is crisp and electronic, drawn from a modern depth sounder, suited to a navigational instrument panel. Glocke is a stone-tower church bell from a coastal village, slow and deep, with a long sustain that hangs in the room after each strike. A full library of alarm sounds — fog horns, sirens, conch shells, train whistles — is included as well, for waking up, marking events, or calling the crew.
Ship's Clock is also the bridge instrument every sailor wished came with the phone. A live weather screen brings real-time precipitation radar from the National Weather Service, NASA satellite imagery refreshed every ten minutes, active storm warnings, and tide predictions pulled from the nearest NOAA station. A barometer with rising-and-falling trend, a sun and moon almanac, UV index, humidity, and a five-day forecast complete the panel. Every section links to its source so the readings can be verified at a glance.

Version 1.4 is the largest update since launch. The bell preview now fires the moment you tap it, with no delay. Every interaction responds with premium haptic feedback through the iPhone's Taptic Engine. A new welcome scene opens to a brass ship's clock lit in deep ocean light. The first forty-eight hours are unlocked completely — every bell, every alarm sound, every premium feature included from the start. The sky now tracks your local sunrise and sunset to the minute, anywhere in the world. And the lighthouse beam now sweeps the horizon at quarter past and quarter to the hour during dawn, dusk, and night, marking the quiet moments between bells.

There has never been a more careful, more beautiful, more accurate maritime clock made for the iPhone.

A note from the maker
If you've found this app, you probably already love something about the sea — the watches, the rituals, the bells, the rhythm of a day broken into four-hour spans. So do I. That's why this exists.

I'm building Ship's Clock with a small crew, trying to honor a five-hundred-year tradition with the care it deserves. Every chime is hand-recorded. Every line of code is hand-written. Every detail is something we obsessed over for someone, somewhere, who would notice.

The Ship's Log on the Support page is where I live online. Live chat goes straight to me — send a bug, a feature request, a sailing story, a photo of where you use the app. I read every message. The best ideas come from the people using the app, on the water and in their daily lives.

If Ship's Clock serves your watch well, a kind review when the time feels right helps other sailors and history-lovers find it. If something's not right, please tell me first.
Thank you for finding this. Let's keep building it together.
