What is WordClock Widget?
Fell in love with those fancy word clocks that spell out the time, then saw the price tag and nearly had a heart attack. $7,000 for a clock? My broke ass said “I can code” and spent the next month building WordClock Widget. Now my home screen tells me “IT IS TWENTY FIVE TO SIX” in the most pretentious way possible. Sometimes the best products come from spite and an empty wallet 😂 Built for iOS, live on the App Store. And if you all buy it, maybe I can finally afford the real one 🤞.
