What's newin version 1.16
New in 1.16
• Lens Clock: a paper dial on a dark desk under a glass lens. Its hour, minute and second discs turn to line the time up under the lens.
• Darker nights: after Day Mode ends, backgrounds go much darker and the clock turns a soft amber. Choose Full or Dim with the new Night Brightness setting.
• Sunrise alarm: your morning alarm now opens with a full-screen sunrise.
• Seasonal backgrounds: special backgrounds for holidays and festivals, with a small notice when one arrives. You keep them after the season ends.
• Welcome tour: a short guide for new users to swiping, editing and the sunrise alarm.
• Time Together: a new Timeline style.
Also improved:
• Resizing widgets has snap haptics, a size badge and VoiceOver steps.
• Edit mode has a one-line hint, a More menu and an undo countdown.
• Still backgrounds now shift slightly over time to protect against burn-in.
• Smart Dimming fades the clock and widgets only by day. At night, widgets keep their colors, softened.
• The whole app is now dark, including menus, alerts and sheets.
Includes fixes for widgets on iOS 17, iPad launch, alarm reliability and gallery labels.
