Chime On Time

Chime On Time is an hourly chime and talking clock that rings on the hour, quietly and on time.

Hear a soft bell every hour, and optionally a voice that tells you the time (“It’s 3 o’clock”). It’s a simple time announcer for mindful breaks, work sessions, or keeping track of the day without looking at your phone.

A note on reliability

Some phone makers aggressively stop background apps. Chime On Time does everything Android allows to chime on time, and its Reliability Check shows you exactly which settings to change on your phone.
