A free online flip clock
This flip clock recreates the classic split-flap board — each digit flips over as the time changes, for a satisfying retro look with a modern, crisp display. Run it fullscreen on a second monitor, a spare tablet, or a desk display, choose a theme and font, and let it tick over in the background. No download and no account required.
What people use a flip clock for
- A retro desk clock on a second monitor or spare tablet next to your keyboard.
- Study and focus sessions where a calm, analog-feeling clock beats a phone.
- A distraction-free time display for reading, writing, or deep work.
- An OLED or Mac-style screensaver with a dark charcoal background.
Themes, fonts, and fullscreen
The flip clock ships with a charcoal Retro Flip theme, but you can swap the background, text color, and font, then toggle the date and seconds. Go fullscreen for a clean, edge-to-edge board, and the display remembers your choices next time.
