Tick Tock Poker Clock: poker tournament timer for iPhone, iPad and Apple TV

Tick Tock Poker Clock
Poker Clock App Icon Available on the App Store

A professional-grade tournament timer with a stunning animated clock face, voice announcements, Apple TV display and an iPhone remote. Built for serious home games and live events.

Features

Everything your tournament needs.

Designed from the ground up for home game hosts and tournament directors.

🎯

Choose Your Clock Face

The original ring sweeps 60 second-indicators around the time, with a smooth fill at every minute. Or switch to a rolling number wheel, or a Now & Next board that shows the coming level and the time to the next break. Change it before the game or mid-game, from the clock or from your phone.

📋

Live Blind Schedule

Scrollable columns show every blind level at a glance. The current level is highlighted in red and breaks in green, with auto-scrolling to keep you oriented at all times.

📺

Apple TV Display

A free companion app puts the clock on one or more Apple TVs over your local network. Not screen mirroring: the TV draws the clock itself, so your iPhone or iPad stays free to use. Zero configuration, the devices find each other automatically.

✨

Blind Structure Creator

Generate a complete blind structure in seconds. Choose WSOP Main Event, WSOP Daily Deepstack, European Poker Tour, Casino Turbo or Home Game Classic, then dial in player count, game length, rebuys, and breaks. The creator builds the whole schedule for you.

🔊

Voice Announcements

Natural-sounding speech announces each new round and its blinds, and warns players at 2 minutes remaining. When an Apple TV is connected it does the talking, so the announcement comes from one place instead of echoing around the room.

🕐

Scheduled Start & Recovery

Set a future start time and get a voice countdown before the first round fires automatically. And if the app ever closes mid-game, it picks up exactly where you left off.

📱

iPhone as a Remote

Leave the clock on the biggest screen in the room and run the game from your phone. Pause, resume, skip forward or back, or start the next tournament without getting up. The phone shows the round, the time and the blinds, so you always know what you are about to change.

♠️

Precise Blind Ladders

Blinds are not locked to doubling. A level can run 200/300 or 300/500, which is how real deep-stack structures actually step. Chip-up breaks retire the small denominations once no blind needs them any more.

🪙

Antes, Your Way

Run a big blind ante or traditional antes. The creator works them out for you, and switching them on for an existing structure fills in every level at once, from whichever level you want them to start. The clock shows and announces the ante with every level. Switch a structure to no antes and they are hidden, not erased.

📚

Every Structure You Need

Save as many tournament configurations as you like and reorder them however you want. Long press to pick the one you are playing, then edit any level, add or remove rounds and breaks, and rename it as your game evolves.

⏸️

Pause Between Rounds

For games that wait for the table: when a level runs out, the next one is loaded and held until you press play. The new blinds are announced the moment it starts, not while everyone is still finishing a hand.

💬

Break Messages

Give any break a message and it appears across the top of the clock for as long as the break lasts. Tell the room the kitchen is open, which chips to color up, or when play resumes.

Screenshots

Looks great on every screen.

Built natively for iPhone, iPad, and Apple TV with a dark, stadium-inspired design.

iPad

Made for the big table.

The landscape layout divides the screen into three crisp columns: small blinds on the left, the animated clock in the center, and big blinds on the right. Every player can see it from across the room.

  • Full landscape layout optimized for iPad
  • Three-column blind schedule visible at all times
  • Auto-hiding controls keep the display clean
  • Break rounds highlighted in green with message banner

iPhone

Always in your pocket.

Rotate to landscape and the same three-column layout fills your screen. Tap anywhere to reveal controls, which auto-hide after 20 seconds so nothing gets in the way of the clock.

Or leave the clock on your iPad and use the phone as a remote. It mirrors the round, the time and the blinds, and drives the game from wherever you are sitting.

  • Rewind and forward buttons for quick round navigation
  • Pause and resume with a single tap
  • Start a game on your iPad without getting up
  • Change the clock face on the big screen from your phone
  • Ending the game asks first, so there are no accidental stops
  • Resume where you left off after a crash or restart
Apple TV

The big screen experience.

Open the free Poker Clock app on your Apple TV and it finds your iPhone or iPad by itself. The TV draws the clock natively over your local Wi-Fi, so there are no cables, no configuration, and your handheld device stays free to use.

  • Automatic discovery over the local network, just open the app
  • Clock state syncs every second: time, round, blinds, antes, paused or running
  • The TV follows the clock face chosen on your iPhone or iPad
  • Announcements come from the TV, so they play once and not twice
  • Several Apple TVs can follow the same game at the same time
  • Free companion app, requires Premium on your iPhone or iPad
