ClockMaster - Time Regulator for Positive User Reviews

✓ Great little appEasy to use and graph outputs makes diagnostic much easier.Davani1411Version: 2.3.1

✓ Great tool.After getting the cable and upgrading it works great with the pickup from my old broken timer. Very accurate and easy to use. The auto calculate function is a great feature. Recommend for any body looking for a nice timer. Price of app and a cable is around $40. A lot less then the cheapest time you can find. They start at $200 and go up..SontimeVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Clock timing appExcellent app, great for timing clock calculates expected beats per hour.Revier3257Version: 2.3

✓ Tick Tock Doc.Use it several times a week. Has been really useful. Would not want to be without it..Ticktockdoc.Version: 2.3.1

✓ ClockMaster did the jobI inherited a 114 year old Ithaca grandfather clock with a Griffith movement and used this program to tune the movement. After getting into the clock, I found that it was not set up correctly and didn’t work at all. After figuring out how it was supposed to be set up, I used the program to set the beat and regulation. I started out with zero knowledge on how a clock works and muddled through the process with the end result being a clock that keeps time. Hurray. The only issue I had was that the auto function for estimating the target rate (for BPH) did not work on this clock at all. I did calculate the actual BPH from counting the number of gears and pivots in the gear train and with the correct BPH imputed, the app worked perfectly. I did splurge on the external Peterson pitch grabber which was money well spent($15 at Amazon)..CrunchyVegetablesVersion: 2.3.9

✓ ClockmasterI love this app, used it many times to listen to my watch and clock repairs. Easy to use and made some great graphs and datasets using Excel. Top stuff.....Watchman....Version: 2.2

✓ AwesomeVery usefull and very precise it really work i'm very impressed now my clock got the same presision as my computer ! I' m very sasified thanks!.Doc RobotnikVersion: 1.3

✓ Great app for the Clock aficionado…One of my hobbies is to clean and repair old grandfather clocks. This app helps in a very simple but elegant display to set the bit, the pendulum symmetry, and other more advanced features. I highly recommended it..A. G. South Carolina.Version: 3.0.19

✓ Piezoelectric pickupI’ve found that the Peterson Pitch-grabber works very well with my iPad and iPhone. There is an adapter available on Amazon that allows you to plug in your Lightning charger and your Lightning dongle provided with your iPhone that you then plug the Pitch-grabber into. This is the only adapter that will allow you to run ClockMaster and charge at the same time. Using my iPad Mini 4 with full brightness and full screen it actually will also recharge it at the same time! Great app!!!.Pat MihlfeldVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Very useful! Works as advertisedThis has become my go-to app when I'm fine tuning a clock, whether it be a perfect tick-tock or getting it timed to as little gain/loss per day. It has been frustrating in the past as the app didn't support my iPhone 5-5S, I had to resort to an old 4 for it to work. Just tried it on my 6S+ and had no problems! I haven't upgraded to pro yet but I am interested as I have a piezo microphone with a 3.5" jack and instead of using my small amp next to my phone I'd love to be able to plug it into my phone and reduce the background noise. $20 is hard to swallow though. Now if it were say $5....NatemeinsVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Great app, used it for years.I wouldn’t be without this app, it works really well. It can be a fiddle getting the sensor in the optimum place but once there it works. The app can’t position the sensor for you - you have to do that yourself. For those saying the bpm fluctuates so the app is no good, bpm can fluctuate. That might be a slight tight spot somewhere, or simply a pendulum taking a while to “settle” or any number of reasons. This app is simply showing you what the clock is doing - you do need to understand what the app is telling you and you need to understand horology. Like any tool, you need to understand how to use it..PaulcbukVersion: 3.0.17

✓ Excellent appI’m a clock’s collector so I always do servicing and repairing pendulum clocks. Since I have got the app (one year ago), I found the app indeed very helpful for me to make pendulum clocks beat and work accurately. It will take short time to adjust accuracy of clock if you know BM/BH of it otherwise you note current BM/BH then wait for the clock working for 24 hs and base on accuracy of clock you calculate actual BM/BH then adjust clock work with the new BM/BH. Before when I didn’t have the app, it took me almost one week to make clocks work perfectly. Please share me if any other app is better this app..Cauduong2001Version: 3.0

✓ Long AwaitedI have no idea how long this app has been around but with a properly adjusted microphone it's all I could ever want. I've build 34 clocks and countless hours working on regulating them. This app makes it painless. Thank you very much!!.CompetitorVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Great appUsed to cal my Eureka clock, works well. Only negative is cost to upgrade to pro features..GeoffP88Version: 1.3

✓ Church Clock RegulationCurrently using to time a turret clock in local Church. 1.25 second beating pendulum. Crude adjustment via rating nut then this app clearly shows the effect of timing washers on the pendulum (old pennies used on the great clock at Westminster). Yet to try on smaller timepieces. May consider upgrading if further trials OK..PendulumbobVersion: 2.3.1

✓ ClockmasterGreat app. I thought I'd have to write this app myself and I've been learning Xcode and Objective-C in my spare time. It's not an easy thing to do. I am a Certified Master Clockmaker and do a lot of house calls to repair grandfather clocks. My timing machine is bulky and difficult to carry around but my iPhone is always in my pocket. So far I've used it on a Chelsea Ships Clock (300 bpm) and a weight regulator (about 84 bpm) I'm very happy with this app so far..WererabbitVersion: 1.1

✓ Wonderful!My ship’s bell clock had been running almost a minute-a-day off for years. With a few iterations of this app it’s now within a second a day!.Island EnigmaVersion: 3.0.1

✓ Great AppJust started working on our Ridgeway grandfather clock that my wife broke. Not knowing anything about clock repair this handy app helped me adjust the pendulum and crutch but also enabled me to time the anchor which had gotten loose. You need patience, the microphone that came with your iphone and a lot of silence. I would definitely recommend this app and it’s a lot better than using an untrained ear. I just made sure the clock was level and the pendulum swing had stabilized before timing..WanduermanVersion: 1.3

✓ Works just fineOnce you figure out the sensitivity and exercise some patience . I've used it for some years now. Really handy..DixhdVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Outstanding!!!!The Pro-version is costly, as apps go, but well worth the price. Here's my story. In 1972, I assembled a grandfather clock kit sold by the Emperor Clock Company. That clock still runs well, although it has always been a bit inaccurate. That was until I purchased Clockmaster. The "calibration" mode of the app helped me zero-beat the pendulum, for the first time without having to do so by ear; and less than 30 minutes later, Clockmaster indicated that I had timed the clock properly. Nearly two weeks have elapsed since then, and the clock remains spot on, as confirmed using the app, "Emerald Time." Needless to say, after 40 years of fiddling with my clock, I am impressed..Kilo 4 . .Version: 1.3

✓ ClockMasterThis app is excellent. I work with clocks professionally and this app does the work of software costing 3 times as much. Great work..Cje245ghfVersion: 3.0.3

✓ LenskeeperI found this app well watching a clock repair video after the person repaired the clock he used this app to regulate and set the timing I tried this on my own cuckoo clock which is never kept time and when I checked it what I thought was a good time was three minutes and 41 seconds off after working with the app for about a half hour and not really wanting to take more time right now I got the Error down to seven seconds per day that’s great I can get it better if I try to work with it more let’s see if it stays that way.LenskeeperVersion: 2.3.1

✓ 5 Star App.Everything it's claimed to be. Works great and is very usefull for setting up mechanical clocks. The most expensive app I've purchased, but well worth the price..SwaseyVersion: 1.0

✓ Simple but does the jobI used this to calibrate my cuckoo clock. It picked up the pendulum clicks just fine using the internal mic, with no need for an external mic or sensor. I'm definitely no horologist, but this seemed to do the job. When I had a problem due to an iOS version issue, the developer responded within a few minutes and had a fix quickly. It would be nice to have plots to look at drift rate and periodic error. These are available in the Pro version, but even in that it will not make plots - just allow you to export the data to a file to be viewed elsewhere. Would be better to have the plots right in the app..HankkVersion: 2.3.9

✓ Unbelievably helpfulI was getting my butt kicked by a wooden mechanical clock I made. I was using metronome apps, stopwatches, etc. to try and get the beat and regulation right. I'm talking weeks of time spent. Wasted. I finally found this app and it does everything it says, and does it very well. The only complaint I have, if you can call it that, is that I wish they had the beat delta info on the regulation screen. I was considering upgrading to the pro version but it's another $19.99 and it doesn't really tell you everything that is included with that upgrade..BfluriVersion: 3.0.15

✓ Works perfectly!This app does precisely what it says it does. I have a growing collection if antique clocks and this app is absolutely superb! Thanks so much!.BradenmikaelVersion: 1.0

✓ Great appWe bought a used Howard Miller grandfather clock that had not been running for a long time. I cleaned it up and used this app to get it in proper beat and regulation. Awesome app! So much easier and accurate then using a stopwatch or counting the beats to set the clock..Happy clock ownerVersion: 2.3.1

✓ RGreat app. Use it solely for pocket watches and works great.RabaksVersion: 2.3

✓ Brilliant! Great appThis is a simple-to-use app which does exactly what it says on the tin. No frills, straightforward user interface and it works very well. Has all the features any clock repairer would need. The auto calibration of BPM works perfectly. I look after numerous pendulum clocks as a volunteer in a museum, and this app will enable me to regulate the clocks easily and quickly. Many thanks!.G4SPZVersion: 2.3.1

✓ A handy appI was having problems getting a new movement set up properly. This app made setting the beat and regulating the movement a breeze. I had the BPH value for my movement, but I didn't need it. I had the pendulum bob set mid-range, so the app was able to work out the proper rate automatically. My only complaint is that it doesn't give a + or - when setting the beat, but that would mean recognizing a tic versus a toc, and that might be beyond what the mic and software can do. The price is a bit steep for what the app does, but after spending just over $300 for a new movement and manuals, it was worth it for me. I didn't splurge and go for the in-app upgrade. The accuracy of the standard version was fine for me..*pandion*Version: 1.3

✓ Works like a charmFor a horologist on a budget this app is great..N_R_HVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Excellent utility for antique clock accuracyThanks for programming this handy ClockMaster utility that's perfect for home users like me. It can assist in calibration of clocks post-service in good working order. As for wrist watches, I've found I can use it or 'experiment' with my 1956 vintage Omega Seamaster Calendar, and others, but first I record the watch beat in extreme HD quality using an 'expensive' voice recorder (mine is an Olympus DM-670. I can then play back the hi-fidelity recording (amplifying if necessary) via good speakers, directly into ClockMaster... Thanks for a fun & useful horological utility!.KeyPCVersion: 2.3.1

✓ Juts works well easily and simplyI downloaded the app and used it to help me set up a pendulum clock I have managed to set it to an accuracy of +0.2 seconds per day That would have been impossible without this app. So easy to use as well..Charles_NVersion: 3.0.11

✓ Does work.I use this app with a peterson tuner and by placing the clamp on the winding key find that it works very well without interruption from outside noises. As I have several clocks close by this was a problem with external mic. Would I recommend this yes in a clock beat I would, sorry! If you have trouble look at the tips within the App. Diydavid..Dsa budVersion: 2.3.9

✓ ReviewWorks as advertised. Note that when using the iPhone earbud microphone one must use the highest sensitivity so the clock ticking must be fairly loud..Me98765-Version: 2.3

✓ Love itVery easy to use and much cheaper than a timing machine!.Clacton clock nurseVersion: 1.0
