THE IDEA

More than checking the time.
It's how the screen comes alive.

Inspired by the magic of HyperOS's animated clock, reimagined as a standalone Android live wallpaper. No root. No system modification. Just a little bit of motion.

01 / THE DETAILS

Made to feel
like magic.

Everything from the shape of a number to the softness of its glow has a part to play.

01 — ANIMATION
06:04

Wake beautifully.

Thin outlines grow into floating, softly blurred numbers as the wallpaper fades into view.

02 — TYPOGRAPHY

Not your usual digits.

Custom-drawn bubble-like number shapes, curved inner slits and carefully placed blue dots.

10 individually designed glyphs ↗
03 — ARTWORK

Petals in every shade.

Deep blue, icy cyan and rich teal petals give the clock a soft, dimensional backdrop.

05 / GOOD TO KNOW

Questions, answered.

Is Petal Clock free?

Yes, completely free. There are no ads and no account.

Why does my phone warn me when I install it?

Petal Clock is not on Google Play, so Android shows a standard warning for any app installed from a file. You can read every line of the code on GitHub.

Does it need root or special system changes?

No. Petal Clock is a normal Android live wallpaper. It does not touch system files or security settings.

Does it replace Samsung's Always On Display?

No. Samsung's always-on screen is controlled by the system. Petal Clock draws its outlined-clock look only while the wallpaper is visible.

Which Android versions work?

Android 12 or newer. It has been tested on Android 14.

Does it show my real time?

Yes. It reads your phone's clock and updates every minute.

How do I remove it?

Change your wallpaper in Settings, then uninstall Petal Clock like any other app.
