SPB Time 3.0 Released Today

Today SPB released the new version of their application SPB Time, a time toolset for your Windows Phone. SPB time isn’t just a clock and alarm for your Windows Phone. It has some nice other functionalities like a World Clock, Stopwatch, Countdown timer and more.

The features that seem most interesting are the classic, paranoid and bio alarms and the integration with SPB Mobile Shell via Widgets. But also the Moon Phases calendar is a welcome feature added to the new version of SPB Time 3.0

The new features of SPB Time 3.0 are mentioned in SPB’s press-release.

* Snappier, better looking user interface;
* Classic, Paranoid and Bio alarms;
* More than 20 alarm tunes;
* Online skins catalog;
* SPB Mobile Shell widgets;
* Scrollable Calendar with weeks numbers;
* Moon phases.

After trying the application for a few minutes I must say that I like the fact that SPB bundled all popular time applications into one application and make it look very good. The application is really snappy on my HTC Touch Pro 2. Another great thing is that different processes can run simultaneously. So the stopwatch and the count-down can run at the same time.

The Classic, Paranoid and Bio alarms are a clever solution to create an alarm which can be completely personalized. The classic alarm is just an alarm at a set time. The Paranoid alarm generates an easy, medium or hard brainteaser, so that you really need to be awake to shut off the alarm. The Bio alarm is an alarm for slowly waking up. At a specified time it is possible to start a light bio sound, which slowly wakes you up.

It is clear that SPB spent a lot of time in the looks of this application. The default skin looks very well, but there are many skins which look even better. These skins can be downloaded and installed within the application itself.

Overall I think SPB Time 3.0 is a very nice application where all your time applications are bundled. Besides that it looks very nice and is a very snappy application.
