In the count mode, it would be awesome if you could select the number of reps you wanted and the stop watch would freeze when you reached that number.

SO FUN!!

It’s so fun tapping the screen when I’m bored :))

Finally!

What a relief to have a reliable way to count DDKs! This app is simple, well designed, and works perfectly.

Simple, functional DDK tool

For speech-language pathologists who like simple tools that make assessments easier, this app allows you to count DDKs easily! I love that there is a timed function as well as a function that starts the timer when you start tapping. You could add the normative ranges for a small improvement in function on the go, if any changes were to be made! Thank you for this app!

Very helpful for consistency in objective data!

This app makes counting DDK rate so much easier! The timer starts and stops on its own. You just need to tap each time a /p t k/ is complete. You can change the length the timer goes for (seconds) and keep data based on date time stamp. The app is very simple which is great to bringing it up quickly during a session! Thank you so much to the creator(s)!
