Fold Table Clock
A smart table clock for your fold
Turn your phone into the clock on your nightstand or desk. By day it is a board with what you need at a glance: the time, the date, the next alarm, your widgets and apps. At night the screen goes dark and shows the time in dim red only when you ask, and the alarm rings even after a restart, before you enter your PIN. Stand a foldable like a tent and the cover screen shows it all in landscape.

A clock for the whole day and the whole night
Fold Table Clock is a smart table clock and an alarm in one app. These are the things it does best.
A board you arrange
The clock and the windows you choose: the date, the next alarm, a timer, the month, your events, a note, a picture, the battery. Hold a window to move it, drag its corners to size it.
Widgets and your apps
Any app’s widget, and the icons of the apps you use most, work apps too. A tap opens them; a stray touch anywhere else does nothing.
Your home screen, if you like
Make the board your phone’s home screen and swipe up for all your apps. Once the phone locks on the charger, the board turns into the night clock.
Night without glare
Switch off the light at night and the time moves to the middle in dim red or amber, or the screen stays black until a tap, a knock on the nightstand or a wave. In the dark the camera flash can be a bedside lamp.
An alarm that rings
Exact alarms ring through battery saving and even after a restart at night. A tick on the next alarm says all is set; a warning, that it may not ring.
Made for a fold
Stand a foldable like a tent and the cover screen shows the time in landscape; unfold it to stop the alarm. Each screen keeps its own arrangement.
Layouts and a fresh start
Save the board, its background and the clock’s style as layouts and switch between them. The starting board is always there to go back to.
Private by design
No internet access, no ads, no accounts, no tracking. Your calendar, photos, files and notes stay on your phone.
Made for you if
You have a foldable
A clock made for the tent posture and the cover screen, and an alarm you stop by opening the phone.
You sleep lightly, or next to someone who does
No glow in a dark bedroom: a black screen, and the time in dim red only when you ask for it.
You are afraid of oversleeping
An alarm that survives a restart at night, warns you about Do Not Disturb, a muted alarm or a battery that will not last until morning, and lets you try it in a minute.
You keep an old phone in a drawer
Give it a second life as the clock on your nightstand or desk. Android 10 is enough, with no account and no internet.
You want your day at a glance
The date, the next alarm, your events and the widgets you like, on a phone standing next to you while you work.
You want it simple
It opens straight on a ready board: the clock, the date, the next alarm and the battery. Change it only if you want to.

Your screen, the way you set it
- Windows. The clock, the date, the next alarm, a timer, the month, your events, a note, a picture, a PDF or a text of your own, the battery. Hold a window to move it anywhere, even partly off the screen, and drag its corners to size it; its edges snap to the others.
- Widgets of other apps. A calendar, music, your notes: any widget that goes on your home screen goes on the board too, and its own settings open right from it.
- App icons. The apps you open most, from your work profile too. A tap opens the app; on a locked phone, once you unlock it.
- A look for each window. A light card, dark glass, a color of its own or none, from solid to fully see-through, with its own words, and a lock so it stays put.
- Background. Cream by day, black, your own photo or your phone’s wallpaper, live ones too. At night the board is black.
Hold, arrange, done
- Hold to edit. Hold a finger anywhere on the board to edit it, and drag the bar wherever it suits you. ≡ in the bar leads to the background, the clock style, the layouts, the alarms and the settings. A tap opens only what you put there: an app or a widget.
- Layouts. Save the board, its background and the clock’s style as a layout and switch between layouts from the menu. The starting board puts back the clock, the date, the next alarm and the battery, as on the first start.
- Your home screen. If you like, the board becomes your phone’s home screen: the Home button opens it and a swipe up shows all your apps. On the charger, once the phone locks, it is the night clock again.
Nine faces, and each one yours
Hold the board, then ≡ and Clock style: a page with a live preview by day and at night. Choose the face, the font and weight of the digits, any color you like, the glow, the size, the brightness and what shows under the time, such as the date, the next alarm or the battery.
The font choice applies to Minimal, Modular, Calendar, Photos, Stacked and Night arc; Neon, Red LED and Analogue draw their own.
Readable in the dark, gentle on your eyes
- Night colors. Night comes when you switch off the light in the evening, in your night hours, or never, as you choose; you can also switch it by hand. The clock turns deep red or amber and dims as much as you like.
- Only what matters. At night the time moves to the middle with the next alarm under it; other windows and widgets show only if you ask them to.
- The screen by day and at night. Each set on its own: always on, on motion, or off like the phone.
- Wake it your way. A tap, a double knock on the nightstand, a wave of the hand or the room light coming on.
- A bedside lamp. If you like, in the dark the camera flash lights up after a tap, a knock or a wave, and goes out by itself within five minutes.
- Quiet by day. After a while without movement the clock dims; you choose when and how much.
- Kind to OLED. The picture drifts slowly to reduce burn-in.
An alarm you can trust
- Rings after a restart. Exact alarms ring even after a restart at night, before you enter your PIN.
- Snooze without looking. Tap anywhere or wave to snooze. Hold to stop, or simply unfold your foldable.
- A soft start. The volume rises gently, and while the clock is on screen a dawn glow lights it before the alarm.
- Gentle wake-up. If you like, a few minutes before the alarm a quiet chime plays for a minute, or the phone only vibrates softly.
- A tick you can trust. The next alarm window shows a tick when everything the app can check is in order, and warns when the alarm may not ring. Off the charger, the battery window tells you how much will be left at the alarm.
- A check before you sleep. The Alarms page warns about Do Not Disturb, a muted alarm volume, blocked notifications or a low battery, and the alarm check goes through your phone’s settings.
- Each alarm its own way. Its own sound, a tone from your phone or a file of your own, snooze, dawn and vibration; skip its next ring when you do not need it.
- A timer. For a nap or the kitchen: tap its window and it rings like an alarm; meanwhile its notification counts down.
- Try it first. A test alarm rings in one minute.
Made for a fold, fine on any phone
On a foldable
Open the app and stand the phone half open like a tent. The cover screen shows the time in landscape, no stand needed, and each screen keeps its own arrangement of the windows.
When the alarm rings on the cover screen, unfolding the phone stops it.
On any other phone
Put the phone on a stand or lean it against something on the nightstand. Every face, the night colors and the alarms work the same.
It needs Android 10 or newer. It speaks English and Czech, following the language of your phone.
More than a clock
Fold Table Clock is growing into a helper on your table for the whole day. These are planned and not in the app yet; each new version brings more.
- Weather. Today and the days ahead, next to the time.
- Message previews. What just arrived on your phone, at a glance from across the table.
Nothing leaves your phone
The app has no internet access: it does not even ask Android for it. It has no accounts, no ads and no analytics. The calendar, photos, files and notes are optional and stay on your phone; a widget is drawn by its own app.
This website is not the app. It counts visits with Umami, without cookies, as its own privacy policy explains.
Frequently asked
Which phones does it run on?
On any phone with Android 10 or newer, foldable or not. On a foldable it also uses the cover screen in tent posture.
Do I have to be a tester on Google Play?
Yes. While the app is in testing, Google Play offers it only to Google accounts that are in the testers group and tapped Become a tester. Install it on a phone signed in with that same account.
What does it cost?
The test version is free, with no ads and no in-app purchases.
Why is it not on Google Play for everyone yet?
Google lets a new app from a personal developer account go public only after a closed test with at least 12 testers over 14 days. You can be one of them.
Does the clock start by itself when I stand the phone up?
No, Android does not let an app open itself from the background. Open the app and it shows the clock straight away; from then on the display mode you chose decides when the screen lights up. If the board is your home screen, the Home button opens it.
Can the board be my home screen?
Yes, if you turn it on in Settings, Screen. The Home button then opens the board and a swipe up shows all your apps. In your hand it behaves like any home screen; once the phone locks on the charger, it is the night clock.
Which languages does it speak?
English and Czech. It follows the language of your phone.
