Ship's Bell

Hear traditional ship-bell time signals and view a maritime-style clock.

Our take

Useful for people who prefer audible half-hour/hour cues

Sound choices, GMT and a manually set tide hand combine a few time references.

Keep in mind: The tide hand uses an average twelve-hour-twenty-five-minute cycle, not local tidal prediction; notification configuration affects sounds and it is not a navigation safety tool.

What you can do

  • Traditional bell and optional hourly sounds
  • Twenty-four-hour/GMT display
  • Manually referenced average-cycle tide ring

Good for

  • People enjoying maritime clock conventions

Consider alternatives for

  • Authoritative tide heights/times or guaranteed alarms

Limitations & considerations

  • Captured minimum: iOS 14.5.
  • The tide hand uses an average twelve-hour-twenty-five-minute cycle, not local tidal prediction; notification configuration affects sounds and it is not a navigation safety tool.

Privacy & permissions

Notification visibility can expose routines on a shared device; review sound/text settings and any optional support sharing.
