Windows Clock is a free time management application that comes preinstalled on all modern pre-Windows 10 and Windows 11 devices, enabling users of all ages to keep track of time and set alarms, but this app can also be downloaded from Microsoft Store in events that the local version of app becomes missing or corrupted due to a wide variety of local storage issues or OS instability simply and reliably.

This app should not be confused with the taskbar clock app found in Windows 10 and Windows 11 platforms, which feature a completely different user interface and set of functions. While that app is only used to showcase current times, this standalone Windows Clock comes with a wide array of additional services.

Main Features

The core functionality of the Microsoft Clock app is to provide users of all ages and knowledge levels with an easy and reliable way to set alarms, manage timers, measure time using the stopwatch tool, and focus on various timed activities using the “Focus sessions” tool that can turn off notifications and app alerts until the timer runs out.

New alarms that are made within this app can be edited to the smallest degree, including full-time management tool, alarm name, sound type, repeat timer, and day frequency. It should be noted that alarms can only be activated if the PC is up and running.

In order to take full advantage of the Windows ecosystem of background services, the Windows Clock app features full compatibility with Cortana, Microsoft's digital assistant that can provide a convenient and hands-free way to interact with the app. Users can set and manage alarms, stopwatches, and timer functions using nothing other than their voice.

The main interface of the app is clear and stylish, following the design structure of many other Microsoft system utilities with full support for both bright and dark themes.

PROS
  • Accurate timekeeping for synchronization and scheduling
  • Time zone customization for international users
  • Automatic updates for daylight saving changes
  • Integration with system and app features
CONS
  • Potential for time drift or inaccuracy
  • Reliance on external time servers
  • Limited customization options for appearance
Overall

Windows Clock app is a simple and effective tool for anyone who needs to keep track of time and set alarms on their Windows 10/11 devices. Its clean interface, customizable settings, and integration with Cortana make it a versatile app that can be used by anyone, whether for personal or professional use.
