Does the clock app pop up automatically when you plug in the charger, or must you turn it on manually every time you want to use it? Thanks

The device is just a charger that holds the iPod/iPhone in the landscape position. So yes the app must be activated to be displayed. The clock face displays until you switch to a different app and you can switch back to the active clock app to return to the clock face display.

Manually. FYI - after buying this, I realized I could have easily made my own device to hold it upright (cardboard), and downloaded a better alarm clock app for free.

Honestly....I do not use the charger because I couldn't with my iPhone in a lifeproof case. To much of a hassle to take the phone out of the case.

I didn't buy this for myself I bought it for my son and If I am remembering correct He said about you have to manually pick the app every time you plug it to have the clock show.

I have had no problem turning the device on, it does need charging more frequently than others. Typically I leave it plugged in overnight.E

Erin , seems like the light is on just right after you connected with the charger, then will be gone,never had any issue once is charged , lots of hours working without charging, enjoy it !!

Yes, you connect the clock with the bluetooth setting on your phone or ipod then the clock radio plays from your Playlist on your device. The sound is pretty good quality. I've been very happy with it.

i've been trying to figure out a way to get the clock to display constantly but the only way i have been able to see the clock is if you press and hold down the mod (clk) button on the top left to make it display the time. but it only stays for a few seconds and then reverts back to the radio station or sd card i have in.

Sorry, I haven't needed to change the time on it. It's been on the correct time since first power up. But I believe the clock is in the settings menu.

Mine is probably two or more years old & it feels difficult to get matched up w/ the holes. I just wiggle it a bit & then lie it down sideways with charger standing up on the nightstand & the charging bar always comes on about 7-10 seconds after I set it down . I'm sure the newer ones are better

We returned ours, you had to plug it into an electric outlet. Not many normal clock have a plug in...kinda of a giveaway.

I turn mine onto timer at the exact time of day that I would like it to turn on. Like clockwork the pop on ea evening just before dark

It depends on the charging rate of your charger. Can't answer with info given, generally overnight, but alarm application is trickle charge so question is moot.

Mine set automatically when we plugged in the phone. We didn't have to do anything.

Yes, the time is the default display that appears after half a minute or so of inactivity. It's a fine alarm clock radio, with good alarm functions and a sleep timer, and I use mine for that too.

No, my clock is only displayed when the key is on. In settings you can select to display clock or selections

Mine does the same. Phone always comes on when it starts charging regardless of charging method. As for the light, I've never noticed until now and it stays lit.

Yes, we plug a clock right beneath the night light on the same outlet plate, top is the night light the bottom is plugged in for the clock. No problem at all

You will need to download a dock app. I used "Dock Clock". Then, you set the alarms per usual, activate the app, and then put the phone in the dock. It is really a great setup. The upright position means you can see the time without grabbing for your phone, it lets you dim the display so that half of your room isn't lit up, and the dock app will automatically turn off all of your ringers and alert tones if you want. Its a great buy. Oh, and it has the spare battery charger in the back too. So, if you have a spare battery, you can charge that while you charge/dock the phone.

Yes. The clock only is displayed while plugged in. Yet it keeps the current.
