Simple, unobtrusive chimes to help you keep track of the time.

Just beeps, not a musical fanfare, so that you're not embarrassed in public! (For fancy chimes, I'd recommend Bellman)

Tones at the top of the hour help you brush up on your binary too :). Some notes on how to decode the binary tones are below.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Need to open app and press "Start Chimes" on first install.

About the "prevent phone from sleeping" permission: This is just to keep the phone awake for a couple of seconds every 15 minutes, long enough to play tones. It shouldnt impact your battery life, and shouldnt make your screen turn on.

~~~ Binary tone notes ~~~
Here's how you can decode the time from the tones.
First, there is a low tone to let you know the sequence is coming.
Then there will be 4 tones that represent the hour number in binary (or 5 if you have a 24hr clock enabled)
A high pitch tone is a "1" and a medium pitch tone is a "0", and it counts from high bits to low bits.
If you're not a programmer, that will sound overly complex, but it's not so bad when you get used to it.
Here are some examples:

1 oclock in 12hr clock mode:
<low tone> medium medium medium high = 0 0 0 1 = 1

1am (01:00) in 24hr clock mode:
<low tone> medium medium medium medium high = 0 0 0 0 1 = 1

2 oclock in 12 hr clock mode:   medium medium high medium = 0 0 1 0 = 2

11 oclock in 12 hr clock mode:   high medium high high = 1 0 1 1 = 11  (=8*1 + 4*0 + 2*1 + 1*1)

20:00 in 24 hr clock mode:   high medium high medium medium = 1 0 1 0 0 = 20  (=16*1 + 8*0 + 4*1 + 2*0 + 1*0)

and so on.

Simple, elegant It keeps track of time without cheezy sound effects.

Poor No good
[2011-10-20] Rich:
One of my must-haves! I've been running this app for over a month now, and I've become almost overly dependent on it... I will totally lose track of time now if I don't hear my little beeps! Truly love it... it has helped a true procrastinator keep on time. My #1 gripe is no tone customization; default tones are hard to hear in a noisy place. Would love to be able to adjust pitch, duration, and waveform (sine, square, triangle, etc) for individual tones. The initial alert tone is almost inaudible on my phone's little speaker.

Just a simple beeper

Too quiet can't increase volume on wildfire.??
[2011-08-14] Antony:
Love it Does just what I need. I'm a fan of binary clocks. My only request would be a volume control. Would like it just a little louder on my phone.

Simple application that does its job perfectly ... Just what I was looking for ..
[2011-06-06] Terry:
Works perfectly on my Desire HD (and you DO have the option of setting a quiet period Jenny!)
[2011-05-25] Jennifer:
Couldn't get it to work on Samsung Fascinate.

Just downloaded - won't use, as one cannot choose when to have it chime. Ie. off at night.
