Description

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

This visual countdown 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".

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 time 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 your own image to reveal from your iPhones 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!

Some small tweaks and could be perfect

My little boy loves this just for fun and I’ve also used it in a professional capacity for helping young children on ABA programs transition to next tasks with great success. Would be awesome if could personalise more than one photo and select a few for random reveal rather than all of them - please consider this for future update!!

Fun productivity time management app

I'm not a kid, but I love this app. I lose track of time when in the "flow" state at work. I get too absorbed in my task rather than distracted. This app is fun and helps me keep track of chunks of time e.g. 20mins, or any chunk you want to set. I like that it shows a reducing pie chart of time as you progress thru the time chunk you've set and are working against. I like that the pie slowly changes from green to red. I like that it ticks. I like the fun exploding image effect once the timer is up. So much better than the dreary timer apps in the productivity app category.

Tick, tick, tick, tick

Hi! I really like this app because it is very fun. I use it when I brush my teeth because I like waiting for the picture to appear and it takes all of the boredom away! I love the fact that you can use the pictures on your device along with a sound effect to design your own unique picture to end the timer. I would definitely recommend this app to anyone like me who gets very bored when trying to count 2 minutes while they brush their teeth.
