Clock is a nice Windows 8 App to watch time in different views. The app provides four advantageous clock mechanisms. The four different mechanisms of this app are – Calendar clock, Stopwatch, Timer, and Alarm. Each mechanism has its own functions. Calendar Clock displays the current date and time that is set in your computer. The clock has two modes to represent; day mode and night mode.
Use stopwatch to measure the amount of time elapsed from a particular time when it is activated to the time when the piece is deactivated. Timer clock measures the amount of time it takes for you to finish a particular task. There is a small difference between stopwatch and timer. Stopwatch usually counts upwards starting from zero (for example it is used in sporting events) and a timer counts down from a specified time interval (such as kitchen timer). The next mechanism of this app is the Alarm Clock to store up to 5 alarms.
