Chameleon Clock: A Timekeepter That Blends In With The World Around You

Chameleon Clock: A Timekeepter That Blends In With The World Around You


What is that there? I can’t see anything. Oh wait it’s a clock. Just like the reptile it’s named for, Chameleon Clock captures the scenery behind your screen and overlays the time on top.

What does it do?

Uses your iPhone or iPad’s camera to stylishly tell the time.

Why do we like it?

It’s an awesome idea, and though there are a ton of time-keeping apps to choose from, there isn’t anything like this. Change the numbers from black or white with a simple tap. Mess with the transparency with swipes. Choose chameleon mode, where the app is matching the colour of what’s behind it. Or try live camera mode, where there’s a feed of what’s going on in the background.
