  • I thought it was a game

    It is not a game
  • Very good

    You people clearly do not understand the app's function. It shows children how long time is by providing a tangible object (apples) to show the passage of time. It is not supposed to be a babysitting app like some fool said. It is for education so kids learn about time.
  • Thank you!

    Okay seriously this is the cutest little timer ever! But to have kids see the visual of it is such a wonderful thing. This is so helpful! Thank you to all who were involved in making this App.
  • Love this app!

    This is such a cute way to "show" time to little ones, who seem to have no concept. My son loves it!
  • Fun timer

    This is a timer, not a game. And for timer, it is AWESOME!! It is great for timing kids' reading and homework, and my child loves it. She used to pause her timer to get up, but now she says she doesn't want to do that because the mouse really wants his cheese. Also good for setting time limits on things like like iPad or TV. It gives a more positive spin on "times up" because the little mouse finally gets his cheese! 🐭
  • Cool

    Cool
  • Good visualization for kids!

    Young kids have trouble grasping different amounts of time sometimes and this is a great visualization aid for tooth brushing, time outs and more. Four stars instead of five because custom amounts of time would be nice.
  • Cool app

    The idea is rad. Loved it . Can you pls add a sound when the timer is up ?
  • Awesome: pointless for adults but...

    This might be good for small child learning basic concepts of time but for an adult it is perfect for sitting through long dull meetings at work. I love it. It is very cute.
  • Not healthy for young children's impressionable and developing brains

    The 1 star is for encouraging little kids to learn to become addicted to a screen and teaching them to become impatient unless they are staring at the mouse eating time. This does NOT HELP then learn about being patient and waiting like the rest of us did before screens. I would NEVER hand my phone or tablet to my kid just to watch a mouse eat up "time" like a brain dead moron. A child can learn about time the proper and "old
    fashioned" and NORMAL way, by learning to wait without a stupid screen in their face. Do you people really want to teach your kids to think screens are better than real life??? It has been proven that handing little kids a screen instead of actual hands on activities, delays talking, causes short attention spans and excessive screen time every day also can lower the IQ. This app is totally ridiculous and is not healthy for a young child because of the addictive brain dead behaviors encouraged by staring at a mouse eating instead of using their brain to THINK. What do you THINK happens when a kid stares at mindless drivel like this?? Their brain shuts down!
    People, turn your stupid devices off and take away all the screens from your kids instead of using them for babysitters.

    While the mouse eating the apple is cute, it is cute for 2 seconds. Other than that, this is a worthless app that really IS NOT FOR KIDS. Unless you want to cause permanent screen addiction damage to their young, impressionable, and developing brain, that is.
