Description by Torben Steen Written by the developer, not by AppBrain. Click to read.
Turn your iPhone or iPad into a retro LED display. Put it on a stand on your desk or nightstand, and Pixlay shows the time, the weather, your next meeting and much more in glowing, animated pixels.

Got an old iPhone in a drawer? Give it a new job.

HOW IT WORKS
• Pixlay keeps the screen on and cycles through your views on its own
• Swipe for the next view, tap to open the settings
• Pick the views you like and set the pixel size, with a live preview of every view
• Tip: keep your device on its charger

FREE VIEWS
• Clock – 12 or 24 hours, small or large
• Date – the month as a pixel calendar with today glowing red, plus weekday and week number
• Calendar – your next event, how long until it starts, and the next 12 hours in your calendar colors
• Weather – animated pixel weather for your location with today's low and high, in °C, °F or K
• Day count – an animated hourglass counts the days to your big date, with fireworks when it's here
• Marquee – your own text scrolling by like an LED sign
• Tasks and notes – six to-dos to tick off and a note that stays in sight
• Also: greeting, stopwatch, time to sunrise or sunset, battery

WIDGET
The pixel clock for your Home Screen and StandBy, in small or medium.

PIXLAY PRO
Unlock every view, make Pixlay your own and remove the ads:
• Pixel Paint – paint your own pixel pictures, or turn a photo into pixel art
• Ambient scenes – starry sky, rain, snow, aquarium, campfire, fireworks and the Game of Life, to match the weather or at random
• Night mode – dimmed or red from sunset to sunrise, or at your own times
• Forecast – the next 12 hours as pixel columns: temperature, then chance of rain
• Weather details – barometer with trend, wind with its direction, chance of rain
• Steps – today's steps from Apple Health, with a bar to your daily goal
• Birthdays – "Anna turns 30 in 3 days"
• Progress – how much of the year, month, week and day (or workday) is done
• World clock – two cities with day or night at a glance, 61 cities to choose from
• Moon – today's phase as a pixel moon
• Timer with alarm
• Bitcoin – price and block height
• Your own order and time for every view
• No ads, ever

Pixlay also runs on Apple Vision Pro.

YOUR PRIVACY
• Pixlay reads your step count from Apple Health on your device only. It is never stored, shared or used for advertising.
• Birthdays, tasks, notes and pictures stay on your device.

STEPS FROM APPLE HEALTH (Pixlay Pro)
