FAQ
Why doesn't the clock speak automatically?
Most browsers block auto-play audio until you click or interact with the page. Click "Speak time now" once, then start announcements.
Does this speaking clock send my data to a server?
No. The clock and speech run locally in your browser using the Web Speech API (when available).
Can I use this as a presentation clock?
Yes - fullscreen mode displays a big, readable time. You can also announce the time at intervals while presenting.
