iPod media includes music, audio podcasts, and audio books.) (Sleep Timers require the app to be running in the foreground. In the free version only one countdown timer can be used. In contrast to the iPhone clock multiple timers are possible, each of them can be started individually. If the timer is used as a sleep timer it will stop media playback in the iPod app. In the free version only one alarm can be used.Īn alarm gets fired when a chosen countdown timer expires. The alarms get fired even if the clock app is not running. Of course repetitions on selected weekdays are possible and there is a snooze function. Multiple alarm times can be set and activated or deactivated individually. In the free version two world clocks can be selected. In contrast to the iPhone clock the timezone and sunrise/sunset times are displayed, too. It shows the time in different chosen cities as digital and analog clock. Pros: Good task-bar display of time, easy access to global timesĬons: Overpriced, unsupported, announce feature is more annoyance than convenience.This Clock is much like the well known and loved clock from the iPhone/iPad. Who wants a robotic voice announcing the time when you can see it perfectly well in this applications task bar display? If you have any support issues, which you will, you will be sol, since their e-mail tech support - one person named amy, apparently - takes weeks to get back to you if she bothers to respond at all.One more thing: the announce feature is actually an annoyance. I say they are disreputable because they have made it impossible to contact someone by phone to hash out problems. They offered me version 10 for $20, but the application is not worth half that. I bought version 9 but could not move it to a new pc because it is no longer available for download - not anywhere. Moreīy Anonymous reviewed on September 8, 2011Īn overpriced, mediocre product from a disreuptable seller.ĭo not buy this product! it is mediocre, overpriced, and the seller is disreputable. the stopwatch and countdown clocks are often useful as well.Ĭons: Too expensive - especially for upgrades. I also like the reminders, much easier than setting up something on my calendar in Outlook. I have the announcement feature running after normal work hours to keep me from getting too absorbed and working through the evening.

Copy the registry information (search for saytime) and merged it to the registry on the new computer.ģ. Copy the Say the Time folder from Program Files on the old computer to the new oneĢ. But charging $30 for an upgrade to version 11 is ridiculo us when version 9 does every thing I need.I had the same problem of the new computer and not wanting to pay for version 11 and solved it this way:ġ. I am a developer and I believe in paying for software that I use. Moreīy Anonymous reviewed on January 23, 2012 Pros: Visual interface is simple and easyĬons: Some bugs. Even if they should actually respond to your email plea for help after a month or two, if the fix they suggest doesn't work, you'll wait another month or two, or perhaps even indefinitely, before you hear from them again. However, as a nother reviewer has noted here, you''ll have to pay that amount again and again if you want to Say the Time running, since Provenio does not support previous versions nor make them available for download onto new PCs.In the event that you encounter technical difficulties, including the notorious 'missing stth64.dll driver', you can forget about getting help from the company, since they have made themselves quite impossible to reach by phone (the number they list is a phony) and almost as difficult to contact via email. Nothing wrong with the product, although $30 is a steep price to pay for a task-bar clock. By Anonymous reviewed on November 10, 2013
