This screensaver is an analog screensaver that looks like a watch, created by Sam Soffes. He created an open-source analog screensaver for free. There are dark and light styles that you can toggle on or off. Additionally, you can see the date at the bottom of the clock. So, if you like analog clocks, this one is perfect for you.

3. Flip Clock

Additionally, there’s a Pomodoro focus feature in this app. It also supports downloading a variety of desktop screensavers on Mac.

This free minimal clock is available for Mac and Windows. It offers both a light and dark mode, as well as both a 12-hour and a 24-hour clock. This aesthetic clock enhances the appearance of any device.

5. The Word O’Clock

I think this is one of the weirdest clock screensavers you have ever seen. The free Word O’Clock screensaver tells you the current time not with digits or a clock face, but with words, using a grid of letters. This is the one for Mac, but there’s another available for Windows. So, if you need a unique, aesthetically pleasing screensaver for your desktop, this is the one for you.

Thank you for reading, see you next time.
