Pick 12 or 24-hour

Toggle 24-hour and seconds to match how you like to glance at the time.

About Minimal Clock

Minimal Clock is a full-screen digital clock that runs entirely in your browser. It is built for people who want a clean time display on a spare monitor, a kiosk screen, or a work tab - without ad banners or "productivity tip" popups.

Open the page and the clock starts immediately. It reads your device clock and timezone (via the browser), shows today's date underneath, and updates every second.

Controls that are actually on the page: switch between 12-hour and 24-hour display, show or hide seconds, and enter fullscreen for the clock panel. Preferences stick in localStorage on this browser so your next visit matches last time.

There is no stopwatch, no Pomodoro mode, and no multi-timezone world clock here on purpose - those are separate tools in Break & Focus. This page does one job: a calm, readable time display you can leave alone.

Features

Starts instantly

No paste box, no Run button, no setup wizard - the time is live when the tab opens.

12 / 24-hour + seconds

Toggle the format you glance at fastest. Choices remember on this device.

Fullscreen ready

One click expands the clock panel; F11 still works for the whole browser window.

Works after load

Once the page is open it ticks from your device - no server heartbeat required.

Keyboard shortcut

Ctrl Enter - Run tool

Use cases

Second-monitor desk clock

Park the tab on a spare screen instead of unlocking your phone to check the time.

Meeting or presentation rooms

Put a clean clock on a shared display before a call starts - no login wall.

Deep-work glance

Keep time visible without notification-heavy widgets competing for attention.
