Sprout shows a young child how much time is left, without asking them to read a clock.
Pick a routine. A playful world shows time passing. When the timer finishes, a gentle ending unfolds, a sound plays, and a star is earned.
WHY A VISUAL TIMER
Young children can understand a shape getting smaller before they can read a clock. Sprout turns an abstract wait into something they can watch.
ELEVEN WORLDS
Each world gives time a different visual story:
- Garden: a ring empties, and a seed grows into a sprout.
- Ocean: the water level falls, and a clam opens on a pearl.
- Rocket: a ship crosses the sky and lands on a planet.
- Reef: a jellyfish drifts down, and the coral lights up as it arrives.
- Rainbow Loom: colorful threads weave into a finished creation.
- Moon Bakery: a little bakery brings a warm routine to life.
- Cloud Harbor: a cloud-whale airship gathers a breeze and takes off.
- Colour Tide: flowing color recedes until the canvas is clear.
- Moss Hollow: a tiny mushroom village grows in a softly lit 3D world.
- Crystal Cavern: golden sand settles inside a glowing 3D hourglass.
- Tiny Railway: a little 3D train follows its route to a cozy station.
Garden is included. The other ten worlds are part of the one-time unlock. Parents can try each world's animated preview before buying.
MADE FOR FAMILY ROUTINES

- Create up to two custom routines for free, with more included in the unlock.

PRIVACY AND PURCHASES
No account. No sign-in. No ads. No analytics. No tracking. Routine data and selected photos stay in the app's local storage. Purchases and restores use Apple's StoreKit.
There is no subscription. The optional unlock is one purchase with Family Sharing included.
ACCESSIBILITY
VoiceOver labels describe the timer status and controls. Text uses Dynamic Type, with a parent setting for the kid-facing timer screens. Reduce Motion removes or freezes decorative movement. Automated contrast checks cover the foreground and background text roles used by each world.
Ratings & Reviews

Four new worlds for little routines: Colour Tide, Moss Hollow, Crystal Cavern, and Tiny Railway.
Watch color gently recede, grow a miniature mushroom village, follow the sand in a crystal hourglass, or ride a little train to its station.
The new worlds include parent previews, gentle endings, and matching widgets. The original worlds keep their familiar illustrated designs.
