THE MOST INNOVATIVE CHESS CLOCK is part app, part dock, and totally elegant. Tempest is an innovative chess clock combining a beautiful mechanical base (aka. the ‘dock’) with our sophisticated, easy-to-use game timer App (aka. the ‘clock’). You simply dock your own smart phone (iOS or Android, new or old) and run our Tempest Clock software (included with purchase). It’s simple magic: our software detects small amounts of tilt in the rocker part of the base, so it doesn’t even run on batteries. Clever, isn’t it? Devices as large as Galaxy Ultra, Google Pixel XL, and iPhone Pro Max fit snugly, including most case-and-phone combinations.
JUST DOWNLOAD, DOCK AND PLAY! Download (the include app), Dock (your own phone – iOS or Android) and Play (Chess, Go, Scrabble, Backgammon and more) From common casual settings to the most complex multi-period time FIDE time controls, all stunningly simple to set within seconds (and without any need for a user manual). Imagine that!
NO USER MANUAL REQUIRED, IT’S THAT SIMPLE! Chess, Go, Backgammon, Scrabble and more. For casual games just swipe to set and play (set for any game within 5 seconds without a user manual!) For Go, it’s just as easy to swipe-set main time, byoyomi time and periods (we’ve never found an easier byoyomi clock to set). For Backgammon, just swipe-to-set any match and move-delay timings you like. And for Scrabble, OT is built in.
PREMIUM ELEGANT DESIGN BUT ULTRA-RUGGED TOO – Tempest looks and feels amazing next to even the most luxurious sets, with vegan leather touch surface, soft-touch padding to securely cradle your phone, zero-slip silicone underlay to stay put even in frantic time scrambles, ultra heavy-weighted for added stability, ruggedness, and durability.
UNIVERSAL COMPATIBILITY – Suitable for any phone model with a gyroscope, including All Apple iPhones, All Samsung S-series, All Google Pixels, etc. Check the specs on your own model to make sure it has a gyroscope (all but the very cheapest phones do). Tempest even runs great on legacy devices like iPhone 6 and Android 4.4 or as modern and big as iPhone 13 Pro Max or Samsung Galaxy Ultra 22S. Most slim cases can also stay on. Tempest fits them all snugly and securely.
FUTURE PROOF -The software is always free and updatable over the air! New features are regularly added: Always up to date and always free for both iOS and Android. Even devices as old as iPhone 6 or Android 4.4 are supported).
