Description
This is a COMPANION APP to the Tempest Game Clock (available at tempestclock.com)
A unique, tournament-style heavy-weighted game clock that uses your own android phone as its high definition, full color display. This app is intended only for owners of the Tempest Game Clock: a deluxe heavy-weighted, traditional form factor chess clock (using a patented precision rocker controller during play, not the touch screen). It pairs with this app to deliver clear analog and digital game timing with or without increments, delays, sudden death or OT time controls. Perfect for Chess, Backgammon, Go, Scrabble, Othello/Reversi, Checkers/Draughts, and other board games.
Tempest features a strict TOURNAMENT MODE - which disables all phone / text functionality during rated games per FIDE and USCF guidelines.
To see the clock in action and to order yours, please visit tempestclock.com.

A bit abstract, or maybe over simplified in the software. Not for slim phone. The thicker, the better. Galaxy's fit fine. Makes a nice dedicated place to put your phone. Substantially weighted. Sits on your lap giving you relief from holding in hand for eternity.
★★☆☆☆
This app failed the most basic test. I wanted to buy the chess clock but figured I would check out the "free" app first. This app doesn't work at all without a registration code. It makes me very worried that buying the clock will limit me to one device running one version of the app. If my wife wants to borrow the chess clock she will also have to borrow my phone??? Don't be evil, let me buy the clock and let everyone and their mother use the app on their device with your clock.
★★☆☆☆
Very cool idea if it worked! It literally turns your smartphone into a chess clock with the classical feel of the old chess clocks. Though, it doesn't work. At least in my case, and I've gone through two of these suckers, both of which suffered from the same malady-right hand side runs even when resting, left side doesn't, even when it's supposed to. For it to run you have to keep the pressure on the right side for if you ease it just a bit it stops and the other side resumes. Do not buy it!
