About this app

Is it a battle to get your child to do something quickly?

This visual countdown timer App was designed for my 2 year old son to help him get his reward chart star for getting dressed quickly.
Getting him dressed used to take forever with many stalling strategies being deployed. Now he runs upstairs asking for the "Countdown timer".

Watch as the timer runs from green to amber to red, helping the child understand that time is running out.

A fun picture is slowly revealed as the timer runs down and when the time is up the child is rewarded with an exciting sound and the picture spins.

Background image changes to match the time of day, so that your child is given subtle hints as to what time of day the task they are being asked relates to.

Choose from the many fun images with different sounds for each, or choose your own image for the timer to reveal from your photo library to really surprise your child.

Endless possible uses:
* Getting dressed
* Getting out the door (shoes and coats on)
* Tidying
* Brushing teeth
* Sharing toys

Turns daily struggles into fun time!

We were also pleased to be told that this visual countdown timer is also great for children and adults with ADHD and Autism.

Ratings and reviews

I used to love this app, I work with children and would use this throughout the day. This is the only app I have ever paid to remove ads on, and it was so effective for class that I bought a TracFone just to use this app, so nothing would happen to my phone. I used the timer fine at school without data, but it updated over the summer and now it won't open if I'm not connected to wifi. So disappointing. I could leave a TracFone sitting with a student, but I'm not about to do that with MY phone!

It does the job. The ads are not good for kids though... You need to supervise them while the timer is running. Kinda defeats the purpose of the timer IMO. I'd like to use it to help build independence for my son, but if I'm right there making sure he doesn't click any of the ads, it kind of defeats the purpose. There is no way to buy the app or remove the ads until you open the app... What's wrong with releasing a separate, full version like 90% of other apps?

I like the ticking sound it makes at every second. I like the picture display as kids can see if they are running out of time and the photo is different all the time. I don't like that the app has to be opened to hear the ticking. I downloaded this app on a whim and it was up and working in less than a minute.
