Talking Clock & Focus Timer

Talking Clock & Focus Timer is a simple Android utility that combines a voice talking clock, customizable alarms, and Pomodoro-style focus timers in one app.

Your alarms, timers, and settings stay on your device. No account is required. The free version may show ads (Google AdMob). You can remove ads permanently with a one-time in-app purchase. Ad and purchase processing is handled by Google—see our Privacy Policy for details.

━━━ PERMISSIONS (WHY WE ASK) ━━━

This is an alarm-clock app. Android requires certain permissions for core features:

• Exact alarms — fire alarms and scheduled talking-clock announcements on time

• Foreground service (media playback) — play ringtone and text-to-speech while an alarm or announcement is active

• Full-screen intent — show the alarm screen on a locked device

• Notifications — alarm, timer, and talking-clock alerts

• Boot completed — restore alarms after restart

• Internet — load ads and process the optional remove-ads purchase

We do not use these permissions to sell your personal data.

━━━ REQUIREMENTS ━━━

• Android 7.0 or later

• A text-to-speech engine (e.g. Google Text-to-Speech) for voice features

━━━ SUPPORT ━━━
