Very nice and usefull application.

But for me, it only works reliably if I just start it and let it run. Changing the skin by taping "Night Light"/"Clock Mode" works too.

Switching to the settings screen sometimes happens if I randomly touch the screen. However, most times, it does not switch to the settings screen, but leaves fullscreen mode and freezes. (doesn't respond to anything, stays black if it was hidden behind an other application or menu). It needs a kill -9 to terminate.

The applications menu title is "unknown".

The switch labels in the settings screen (eg. alarm "on"/"off") are hard to read for me due to the colour chosen.

The way of setting the alarm time - moving your finger over the digits - is very good design, congratulations!

So I consider this "beta", but very promising!

I am running OS2008 on an N810

A great full-screen bedside alarm clock. My bedside buddy when traveling.

You can use your own MP3 audio files for the alarm, and if you set an alarm and then shut down flipclock (or even shut down the tablet), your alarm will still go off, because flipclock uses the system alarm, which will wake the tablet.

Very important feature: it has an "insomniac mode" that leaves the screen's backlight on, very dimly, all the time, so you can see the time, even in the middle of the night, without trying to tap the screen (which usually leads to me knocking the tablet over and waking up the wife).

My favorite new feature is the new skinning capability, allowing the flipclock to also be a nixie-tube clock.
