Chess Clock: Board & Go Timer for iPhone and Android

Chess Clock: Board & Go Timer puts a large, touch-anywhere game clock on one phone for chess, go, shogi and board games. It supports Fischer increment, Bronstein and simple delay, Japanese and Canadian byo-yomi, hourglass, multi-stage controls and sudden death. Two to six players can rotate through a game, receive individual handicaps, and review move counts or export the game history afterwards. Full-screen digits, an optional seven-segment theme, tap tones and last-five-seconds alerts make the clock usable across a table or in a tournament hall.

What is it?

Chess Clock: Board & Go Timer is an app for chess, go, shogi, and multiplayer board-game time controls.

What problem does it solve?

Physical game clocks can be hard to configure for byo-yomi, increments, or uneven players. This clock puts those controls on a large, touch-friendly display with move statistics.

What it can do

  • Fischer increment — time added after every move
  • Bronstein delay — get back what you used, up to the increment
  • Simple delay — count down only after the delay expires
  • Japanese byo-yomi — periods that reset each move
  • Canadian byo-yomi — a block of time for a set number of stones
  • Hourglass — your time flows to your opponent
  • Multi-stage controls — "40 moves in 90 minutes, then 30 minutes"
  • Sudden death, and any combination of the above

Who it is for

Chess, go, and shogi players, teachers, clubs, and board-game groups.
