Screen Clock Pro: Customize Your On-Screen Time Display

Screen Clock Pro is a customizable on-screen clock utility designed for desktop users who want a clear, flexible time display without switching apps. It focuses on visual customization, minimal system impact, and productivity-friendly features.

Key features

• Multiple clock types: Digital (⁄₂₄-hour), analog, and hybrid modes.
• Always-on-top and click-through: Keep the clock visible while working; enable click-through so it doesn’t block interactions.

• Alarms and timers: Set one-off or repeating alarms, countdown timers, and simple sleep reminders.
• Time zones and world clocks: Display multiple zones simultaneously, label each clock, and sync with system or internet time.
• Widgets and plugins: Small widgets (date, stopwatch, CPU usage) and community plugins for extra functionality.
• Themes and presets: Built-in presets and import/export for sharing custom themes.
• Low resource usage: Lightweight CPU/RAM footprint and optional GPU acceleration for smooth rendering.
