Have you Ever Noticed that Android & iOS CLOCK Icon Actually Moving According to the Current time
Okay, maybe I'm late to the party😊, but I just noticed the Clock⏰ icon was displaying the correct time.
What an amazing time we live in!
I don't know how many of you would have noticed it, but when I noticed, I was shocked🤯.
As more and more developers are getting their hands on the iOS & Android Firmware, we're starting to hear about some rather interesting little touches. The latest? The iOS 7 Clock⏰ app icon shows the current time, complete with moving second hand.
The clock is synchronized to the device's time so that the red Second-hand reaches 12 just when the time indicator in the status bar changes to the next minute. Previous versions of the Clock⏰ app simply showed the clock stuck at 10:15 -- now the icon is dynamic. Perhaps we'll begin to see more dynamic icons coming from Apple and third-party developers in the future.
