Click here to check out 'Toki Clock for iPad' in the App Store in iTunes application.



'Toki Clock' is a clock application for your iPad with many features. Have your iPad display the time, calendar, and time from cities around the world while it is being charged.

Use this world clock for international events, like olympic games and World Cup Soccer!



BEFORE BUYING:

Compared to other great clock apps in the App Store, 'Toki Clock' lacks the following features:

* 'Toki Clock' does NOT allow users to browse to other month than the months that are being displayed.
* 'Toki Clock' does NOT support displaying holidays.

Also before buying, please know that:

1) 'Toki Clock' must be running for the alarm to sound.
2) 'Toki Clock for iPad' supports landscape orientation but is very limited:
     - When in landscape orientation, tapping on the screen does nothing because the screen is locked so if you want to change any of the settings of 'Toki Clock' (for example, change Date Format), you must do so in portrait orientation.
     - When in landscape orientation, 'Toki Clock' always displays local time, 2 months calendar, and time of 1 city of your choice (The city being displayed can be changed when in portrait orientation).

IMPORTANT NOTE.  PLEASE READ BEFORE USING ALARM FROM iPod MUSIC LIBRARY:

To avoid going into Sleep mode, Toki Clock disables System's Auto-Lock setting when 'Toki Clock' is running.

I think this is the spec of iPad but once a song is played from your iPod Library, the disabling System's Auto-Lock function no longer works.  When this happens, your iPad will go into sleep mode at the specified time that is set in the System's Auto-Lock setting even when 'Toki Clock' is running.  (For the same reason, when you listen to a song you selected in the Alarm settings windows in Toki Clock even for once, the Auto-Lock setting will go back to the System's Auto-Lock setting.)

You can restart 'Toki Clock' app and it will disable System's Auto-Lock setting again while 'Toki Clock' is running.

When the alarm from iPod Library sounds and when you tap on [Snooze] button, your iPad will go into sleep mode at the specified time that is set in the System's Auto-Lock setting.  Once your iPad is in the sleep mode, sometimes, the alarm will NOT sound.

To work around this, when using a song from iPod Library for alarm, change the System's Auto-Lock setting to 'Never' or simply just don't use Snooze feature.  I apologize for this inconvenience.  I couldn't find work around for this at the source code level after spending so much time trying to figure this out.
