Features & Capabilities

Mouse Timer is a cute, visual timer designed to help kids grasp the length of time. This education tool, inspired by teachers and parents in LITALICO classrooms, uses a hungry mouse gnawing on apples to represent elapsed time. It can be used as a classroom timer or a daily timer at home, and it is free and ad-free for safe, distraction-free learning.

It features simple time selection by tapping the display, pause/resume, and reliable alarms that notify you even when the app isn’t open. An optional in-app purchase unlocks a white mouse character for added fun. Perfect for classrooms and families seeking an engaging, kid-friendly timer.

User Reviews

Users praise the app as a cute, engaging visual timer that helps kids understand time, improve focus, and complete tasks, especially in SPED/ABA contexts. The main recurring requests are for customizable durations beyond the preset options, and occasional bugs like not stopping at 0 (goes negative). Some users would also like end-of-timer sounds and more visual variety (different colors or fruits). Overall, it’s valued as an educational, easy-to-use tool, though its usefulness is limited by the lack of customization and minor timing glitches.
Pros
  • Visually engaging timer that shows time with a cute mouse chomping apples, helping kids grasp remaining time.
  • Simple, easy-to-use interface that makes it easy to use in classrooms or at home.
  • Great educational tool for teaching time concepts and supporting impulse control and task completion (especially for SPED/ABA).
  • Increases engagement and cooperation from children compared to more traditional timers.
  • Supports routines and transitions in daily tasks by providing a predictable visual cue.
Cons
  • Lacks customizable timer durations beyond the preset options.
  • End-of-timer behavior can show negative time instead of stopping at 0.
  • Requests for additional features like end-of-timer sounds and more visual variety (colors or fruits).
  • Some users would like features such as skip forward/backward or more presets for longer tasks.

They have something fun to watch while they wait, and it helps them understand how much time is left. I'm a BCBA and this is the best I've found for kids who struggle with impulse control!

I love this timer for my SPED kids. They are so cooperative when using this timer. But what would make it the greatest is if I could customize the time. It would make things so much easier.
