Amber Clock

Users loved the idea of having a glanceable clock without unlocking their phone. However, hardware limitations meant many couldn’t access the feature. I created Amber Clock to bridge that gap, offering a battery‑efficient, AMOLED‑style display that worked even on unsupported devices.


Key Features

  • Always‑on digital clock display
  • Battery‑optimized for long runtimes
  • Theme‑aware design with customizable colours
  • Simple, minimalist interface

Technical Details

  • Platform: Windows Phone
  • Language: C# with XAML UI
  • Optimization: Low‑power rendering for AMOLED screens

Outcome & Impact

Amber Clock gave older Lumia users access to a premium feature, extending the life and usability of their devices. It also demonstrated my ability to reverse‑engineer platform features and deliver them in a user‑friendly way.
