Today, to find out what time it is, people most often look at the phone screen, rather than at the dial of a real watch.
I went through many different beautiful Russian clock widgets for the Android desktop screen: weather and clocks, alarms, timers, digital, analog, Slavic and so on.
For Android, you can install simple screen additions, as well as advanced applications, thanks to which you will always be “on time”.
In the Play Market you can choose a wide variety of applications - from simple “timers” to advanced stylistic alarm clocks.
Only the choice should be based on your desires - if you are only interested in watches, then downloading applications of several megabytes does not make sense.
Below you will find my selection of the best clock widgets. I tested it on Android 4.4, Android 5.1 and Android 6.0.
The most popular clock widgets for Android
The Clocksync clock widget can synchronize with an atomic clock.
In the settings, you can also enable automatic time updating after a certain time interval.
“Retro Clock Widget”, as the name suggests, is an imitation of a vintage clock. They really lack transitions between numbers, but they are beautiful and offer the ability to display time and date.
Interesting widgets for displaying the current time, which first of all look beautiful on the desktop screen - Digi, Simple Clock Widget and Minimalistic Text: Widgets.
The first "Digi" widget is simply a digital clock - nothing more, nothing less.
The second “Simple Clock Widget” is a little unusual - the current time and date presents an interesting shape on a transparent background.
The latest “Minimalistic Text: Widgets” won the hearts of many users with its uniqueness - instead of numbers or a clock face, the current time and date are presented in text form.
You can set the direction of the font and text display - it has been installed by more than one million users.
What if none of the clock widgets meet your expectations? Maybe it's better to make your own widget?
If you study a little (the information is free on the Internet), you can create your own clock, weather widget, and even get information about the status of your phone’s battery.
All of this can be adjusted to "any angle" - font size, color, shades and transparency can be adjusted to your liking. At the same time, you will be sure that the size will fit beautifully on your desktop.
Of course, almost no one will create it on their own. Therefore, below I provide two of my favorite clock widgets - you can download them immediately on this page, of course for free.
Beautiful big clock widget for Android
Installing a beautiful clock widget is not difficult and free, but after experimenting, I chose Timely.
It is an alarm program, clock, stopwatch and timer in one. Moreover, it has a minimalist, simple and clear interface.
The application itself consists of three screens. The first one has alarms that you can easily manage and set for the appropriate days of the week. Of course, you can also choose a personal alarm melody.
On the second screen is a classic clock. Their appearance can be changed: style and background. The last screen provides access to the stopwatch and timer.
You can easily switch between these functions using vertical gestures. There is also wonderful animation built in.
Switching between timer and stopwatch looks amazing. As if that weren't enough, every change of numbers on the watch display looks crazy.
Never before has a watch app been so eye-catching. It may sound funny, but using a timer has never been more fun.
The applet can be downloaded for free from Google Play or here below. Only the free version does not have all the personalization options.
If you want to unlock additional themes, additional alarm ringtones or disable ads you will have to pay.
There is another way to unlock the pro version - recommend the program to others so that they install it using a special link.
This way you will unlock all the features of the professional version. This is a very smart move. People who do not use pirated software but do not want to spend money can use this option.

Best digital clock widget Chronus
Another, available to all Android owners (or at least versions 4.1 and later) Chronus.
At first glance, Chronus is just another standard clock widget. In fact, the application can do much more, and this is one of the most attractive elements.
Not only is the program a highly customizable widget, but it also provides weather information and can display calendar event information.
Thus, you get three functions, and at the same time it looks beautiful and has extensive settings.
The user has the choice of two types of clocks - digital and analog. Visually, they largely resemble native widgets for Android.
The digital version can decide whether you want to condense hours or minutes, and also determine their color. You can also display information about scheduled signals (and, of course, customize it).
The weather forecast function is based on the Yahoo service. You will have options such as update interval, selection of units and locations, as well as two charts - color or monochrome.
Nothing stands in your way and change the font color used to inform you about the current weather.
Information about upcoming events in the calendar is also customizable. Here you can select the categories from which data should be collected and determine which items will be displayed.
In addition, the application can highlight upcoming events as you approach a deadline. Just as in the two previous cases, you can specify the font color.
The widget works very well. Its appearance may not be particularly original, but it fits well into the Android interface.
If you're looking for a solution that can replace the other three widgets while still allowing you to create an advanced configuration, then Chronus is definitely worth a look.
It is encouraging that the application will be constantly developed and thus will not lose its functionality. Good luck.
