TimeBorn
A live wallpaper and widget that count your exact age.
The problem
Your age is invisible from one day to the next, and age apps tend to be plain numbers on black.
What we built
- Your age counted live to ten decimal places, in 24 timer faces.
- Faces drawn in code, with the same maths in the widget and the wallpaper, so they always agree.
- A photo-first wallpaper: drag, pinch and twist to place your own picture under the counter.
Where it is now
In development. The website is live at timeborn.appynox.com.
Built with
Flutter, with native Android for the wallpaper and widget
About TimeBorn
TimeBorn is an Android live wallpaper and home-screen widget that shows your exact age, counting up as it passes. You enter your birth date once, and the count runs to as many as ten decimal places, so the last digit changes hundreds of times a second.
It comes with 24 timer faces, from nixie tubes and split-flap displays to seven-segment, dot-matrix and phosphor-screen styles. Each face is drawn in code, with the same maths in the widget and the wallpaper, so the two always agree. You can set any photo as the background, then drag, pinch and twist to place the counter where you want it.
TimeBorn needs no account and has no ads. It does not use the internet, and your birth date and photo stay on your phone. The app is in development and not yet on Google Play; its website explains the faces and runs a live age counter you can try.
