Caffeine Clock helps users know exactly how much caffeine they have in their system at any given moment. Using scientifically-backed pharmacokinetic models based on caffeine's half-life of approximately 5 hours, the app provides accurate real-time tracking of caffeine levels throughout the day.

## Key Features

- **Comprehensive Database**: Access over 200+ pre-loaded caffeine items including coffee from major chains (Starbucks, Costa, etc.), energy drinks (Red Bull, Monster, etc.), teas, sodas, and more
- **Custom Items**: Create custom caffeine items with your own images if something isn't in the database
- **Analytics Dashboard**: View detailed analytics and consumption history with graphs and insights into your caffeine habits
- **Privacy-First**: No account required, all data stored locally on your device, completely offline functionality with no server communication
- **Multi-Language Support**: Available in English, Czech, German, French, and Spanish
- **Sleep Improvement**: Make informed decisions about caffeine timing to optimize sleep quality
