Buzzy Hours

This app runs on your watch to give you a buzz on the hour and half hour.

You no longer need to look at your watch to know the time. More than that, you can choose how the time is represented from a selection of buzz styles which range from a single buzz on the hour, to a buzzed version of clock face roman numerals.

Do you ever miss the start of meetings, the start of the news, a train, a bus, a date? The alternative to checking your watch every minute is to let your watch tell you when it hits the hour or half hour. Buzzing the watch every hour can actually save your watch battery too, since you spend less time activating the display to check the time.

What is it like having the digits of the hour encoded and converted into a sequence of buzzes? It is like a sixth sense - a sense of time. For instance, if you choose the Roman Buzz pattern, at 11 am you would get a long buzz representing the roman numeral "X" followed by a short buzz indicating the numeral "I". So "XI"... buzzzz buzz. Simple as that. In the middle of your meeting, suddenly you know it is time to move on, without having rudely and repeatedly checked your watch.

This version of the app is free. Depending on the response, a pay version may follow.
