Overview
DeskEcho turns your charging iPhone into a calm desk display: a time-aware clock paired with a live, ambient ticker of how people around you are feeling right now. Set your phone on its side while it charges, tap into Desk Mode, and a full-screen clock face takes over — one that shifts its look between day and night so it reads cleanly from across the room.
Below the clock, a quiet stream of anonymous mood tags from people in your timezone drifts past — “Need caffeine,” “Food coma,” “Quitting time.” It's built for desk and remote workers who want a glanceable clock with a touch of low-key connection: no typing, no account, and every tag disappears after 24 hours.

Key Features
Glanceable Desk Clock
Eleven clock faces — monospace, analog, Solari split-flap, LED matrix, flip clock, neon, pixel art, LCD, word clock, and concentric rings. Swipe to switch faces right inside Desk Mode.
The World's Mood, Live
Tap one tag to share how you feel — no typing, no account, fully anonymous — and watch moods from people in your timezone drift past in real time.
Mood Insights
See the most-felt mood of the hour in your area, a 24-hour mood timeline, and a live pulse of what everyone is feeling right now.
Five Ways to Watch
A flowing ticker, a tidy panel of top moods, a minimal palette, playful bubbles, or a live ranking — swipe between layouts without leaving Desk Mode.
Built for Ambient Use
Gentle pixel-shift protects your screen and automatic day and night themes keep the display easy on the eyes through hours on your desk.
Anonymous & Ephemeral
No account and nothing to type. Moods are shared anonymously and every tag is removed after 24 hours, so nothing lingers.

If you keep a clock on your desk or nightstand, DeskEcho offers eleven faces and gentle day/night themes instead of one static display.
