Review summary

Users appreciate the app's simple and calming design that aids children, including those with ADHD or autism, to manage routines and stay on task visually. It supports multiple tasks and routines, helping with daily schedules. However, users frequently mention the app's limited icons, lack of flexibility to skip tasks early or set timers below 5 minutes, and absence of reminder features. Some also find the app's design too basic or childlike for older users. Overall, while useful, the app needs more features and customization to better serve its audience.
Pros
  • Simple and visually appealing design that helps children, including those with ADHD or autism, keep track of tasks and time.
  • Ability to add multiple tasks and routines, making it useful for managing daily schedules like bedtime, school, and chores.
  • Helpful for productivity and staying on track with time goals, especially for children or tasks that require visual guidance.
  • The app is free and has a soothing pastel color scheme that users find calming and enjoyable to use.
Cons
  • Limited number of icons and pictures, even after purchasing extensions, leading to lack of representation for many tasks.
  • No option to skip or mark a task as complete before the timer runs out, forcing users to wait for the full time duration.
  • Timers only allow 5-minute increments, which restricts flexibility for shorter or more precise timing needs.
  • Lack of reminder or notification features to start routines and no widgets available.
  • Some users find the app too basic or baby-like, which may not appeal to older children or teens.

Very basic . So many limitations. Just a setting button, maximum not even 5 detailed options. Too basic. Not worth it

I was recommended this app to do 5x5 (5 takes 5 minutes each) and the set up was amazing, and all of that. The only issue I ran into was the sound of clock, and I couldn't seem to find a way to turn the timer sounds off without missing the ending sound. I also wish with a switch in task it could have the option to have a manual start, in case you have to move to a different area instead of pausing and un pausing each time.

A lot of potential, very useful to my productivity in general. It need to have more features. Maybe will be nice if you can completed tasks instead of just go ahead with the task continuing to appear on the timer. The slot of tasks is amazing, but will be good if we can define which of chores is task or habit, because I don't want simple task to be repeated next time. Maybe when skip a task ask if it is finished and if yes, remove. The app is amazing, update it please! Thanks! ❤

My daughter has ADHD and suffers the typical time-blindess of ADHD... This timer has been very useful to me and I am very satisfied with it based on how I need it to work. So my daughter and I are able to both visually see that we stay on track on our time goals during task periods. I like that I am able to break down several tasks in a period thru this timer.

I otherwise really enjoy using it for the bedtime routine, but with the purchased icons, the one with the washing hands, it covers the whole clock as soon as the task finishes. Is there a fix for this?

Would really like to be able to edit the saved tasks. This timer is great for my 5 year old for keeping her on task during quaritine. We use it daily.

There are so few icons... I bought the extension-$2 is not much, but it only added maybe 9 more icons... And seriously?? There is no hairbrush?? This is the app with the most potential... The setup and layout are amazing... All that is needed is icons to fit the various things people do everyday... I would think that would be the easy part? I guess I don't know much about app design....
