Move Clock: Chess Timer

Move Clock brings two-player chess timing to your phone or tablet. Put it beside a real board, choose a control and start playing. Each player has a distinct clock, a name and a move counter. Finish your move by tapping your own active side; the other clock starts and your turn is counted. READY FOR DIFFERENT GAMES Choose 1+0, 3+2, 5+3, 10+5, 15+10 or 30+0. There is also a five-minute control with a two-second delay and an Armageddon setup with five minutes against four. For Armageddon, agree the draw conditions with your opponent before the game: the app handles the clocks, not chess adjudication. YOUR OWN TIME CONTROL Set each player’s starting time independently, from 1 to 1,440 minutes. Enter names and an optional name for the control. The Fischer increment and delay are shared by both sides, with a range from zero to 3,600 seconds. Your chosen settings are stored on the device for the next session. UNDERSTAND THE BONUS A Fischer increment adds the selected seconds after a completed turn. A delay waits before taking time from the main clock and shows the remaining delay on the playing screen. Pause preserves the unused delay. Choose zero when you want a plain countdown without extra seconds. CONTROL THE GAME Pause and resume when you need a break. Undo the previous clock move after a mistaken tap, or restart after confirming the reset. Two large time displays stay separate from the game controls. The final ten seconds show hundredths. The app records games that finish when a player runs out of time, including the result, elapsed playing time and move count. SOUND AND COLOUR Select one of five move sounds and preview it. Choose vibration, minute cues, a ten-second warning and signals for the last five seconds. Sounds depend on your device’s volume and are intended for the open game screen; background alerts are not guaranteed. Ten colour pairs and twelve individual player colours let you choose a clear combination. A SCREEN FOR YOUR TABLE Use portrait or landscape, allow automatic rotation or lock the orientation. In portrait, the upper player’s clock faces the person opposite you. Keep the screen awake during a game if you wish. Clock controls remain available while names and extra information can scroll in a tight layout. Light, dark and system themes are available, with eleven interface languages. LOCAL PLAY, CLEAR AD CHOICES The main timer, controls and history work offline. Player names, preferences and game records stay on the device. The app contains Yandex advertising, including a lower banner and ads during eligible app openings; full-screen ads do not interrupt a started or paused game. An optional rewarded video provides 24 hours without ads after completion. Timing features do not require viewing an ad. Advertising needs a connection and may process device identifiers under the privacy policy. Before the first move, check the names, starting times and bonus together. A shared understanding of the control makes a friendly game easier to follow. For an equal-time match, give both sides the same minutes. For time odds, change the starting times independently while keeping the common increment and delay visible. Try a sound before sitting down at the board. If you prefer a quiet room, switch move sounds off and use the screen or vibration instead. Move counts describe clock presses, not the legality or quality of chess moves. The app does not contain a chess engine or move analysis. The brief history is a record of completed timed games, not a score sheet of positions or notation. Review the outcome and number of turns without creating an online account. For example, with 5+3, a twelve-second first turn leaves 4:48 before the three-second bonus, then 4:51 after you tap. Your opponent’s clock starts from its own remaining time. With a two-second delay, the first two seconds of a turn do not reduce the main clock. A three-second turn therefore uses one second of the main time.
