Description:A precise utility for calibrating mechanical cuckoo clocks, helping you keep accurate time and perfectly synced cuckoo calls. Cuckoo Clock Calibration uses your phone’s microphone to analyze the tick‑tock beat, detect beat error, and guide simple adjustments for fast or slow clocks. It also verifies strike counts and helps align chimes to the top of the hour. Ideal for enthusiasts and beginners, it offers a guided workflow, clear tips, and progress tracking.
Core features
- Beat and rate calibration with real‑time microphone analysis and visual metronome
- Chime and strike alignment to match the cuckoo call with exact hour marks
- Drift tracking, maintenance reminders, and daylight saving time alerts
Why it’s better
- Accurate and beginner friendly guidance with clear, step‑by‑step prompts
- Works with common cuckoo clock movements and custom BPH presets
- Uses system or network time as reference for reliable time sync

How to use:1. Install the app, open it, allow microphone access, and choose a movement preset or enter your clock’s BPH.
2. Start Beat Calibration, place the phone 10–20 cm from the clock, and record 30–60 seconds of ticks for automatic beat error and rate analysis.
3. Follow the on‑screen guidance to correct beat error and adjust the pendulum to slow down or speed up until the target rate is reached.
4. Switch to Chime Alignment, run it near the top of the hour, confirm the strike count, and use the prompts to align the cuckoo call with the exact hour.
5. Save the session, set maintenance and DST reminders, and run a 24‑hour drift check to verify accuracy over time.
6. View your history chart, compare before and after results, and export a calibration report if needed.
