First-Then: Timer is a warm companion for children who have trouble waiting and switching between tasks. The app displays the time clearly and motivates with a clear reward: first the task, then the pleasant experience. Created by the father of a child with special needs.
Suitable for children aged 2-10, including those with developmental disabilities, and anyone who thinks in pictures.
What's inside:
• Visual timer "First → Then." The child sees the task and reward on one screen, and a circular timer shows how much time is left. Less tears and coaxing.
• Behavior tokens. Collect tokens for effort - a chosen reward awaits at the end. Gentle motivation without pressure.
• Step-by-step ABA sessions: task, break, reward. Convenient for classes and specialists - ABA therapists, speech therapists, special education teachers.
• Daily schedule and social stories - calmly explain to the child what will happen and how.
• Ready-made tasks and rewards with warm illustrations - or add your own photos.
• Works offline. Dark and light themes. Large, clear elements, minimal text.
• Parental protection: PIN code and biometrics to prevent children from logging out and deleting.
Why it works:
Children have difficulty understanding abstract time and the words "wait" and "soon." The app translates waiting into a clear picture: you can see how long to wait and why. Familiar images motivate more than persuasion.
Free - a full timer, ready-made cards, and basic features. Premium - unlimited access to your photos, multiple child profiles, full statistics, and a cloud copy of data for transferring to another device.
Made with care - by a dad for his son. Calm screens, warm illustrations, nothing superfluous.
Visual timers, tokens, and schedules for kids. Tasks come first, rewards come later.
