Great for early learners

This app is simple and easy to use for early learners. I like the ability to take photos and add quickly to create a visual. The option to utilize a visual timer for each activity and place in the finished bucket is great. I’ve not had any difficulty utilizing this. It functions as described for a great price.

Portable alternative to board

Great portable alternative to board would be so much better if you could move the then picture to first and put a new picture into then.

Good idea needs more support

I like how simple it is. I don’t need more than two spaces. BUT the “library” is severely lacking. Also, you can’t save cards to use again. Many times we need the same one and I have to go through and create it again in a time when I need it ready immediately. I also had no luck using the box when “firsts” were completed. Very disappointed.

Very Handy

I Downloaded It On My iPad And I Love It. I Fixed It When I First Used It. My 8 Year Old Brother Ben Is Obsessed With It.

Wish I’d read the reviews more closely

Timer doesn’t work, dragging items to the “finished” box doesn’t work. Buyer beware.

Waste of money

Doesn’t even work. How can they still have this app for sale? Shame on the creator for making profit off of families who are seeking ways to support their kids with ASD!

Not working

Looks like a great app. I’m an Occupational Therapist myself and work with many kiddos that could benefit from an app like this. Unfortunately it doesn’t work:( I open it up and choose the two items and then that’s it. It won’t allow me to set a time, play, or do anything else but go back to the main menu. So it’s pretty useless for me. :(

Doesn't work!

Downloaded onto my iPhone 6 and can't get even one episode of "first & then" to work. App would allow me to get to the screen, but it crashes when I tried to add pictures from any of the three option: camera, photo library or "first & then" library. Couldn't find any support on App Store sight. I'd really wish we could demand refunds!!!

Waste of money

Everything showed that pictures came with the app, along with being able to add your own, both options were important. When you look at the apps pic library, nada. Plus the app hasn't been updated in almost 2 years. Very disappointed!!!

Can't save schedule

I like how easy it is to add photos and move them to the finish box. However, if the child flips to another app, when you flip back, you have to add the photos again. This is a definite negative. Please fix! In the meantime, I will be looking for another app that does similar things.

Good idea

Good idea for an app. Would be better if you could save your sequences rather than having to find your pictures and insert into the app each time.

SDC teacher

I use this in my classroom and it is great for students that need a visual of the activity they are working on. I love that I can take pictures on the go and can customize without having to print out photos to make icons. The visual timer is also a lifesaver For students that have a difficult time ending a preferred a activity. My one suggest would be to change the sliding scale to set the time. I work with little ones and sometimes 1 minute of something is all they can handle, but the slider is really tricky at the 1-4 minute marks. I have been promoting this app to all of my parents and fellow special education specialist.

Timer not working!

Just purchased this but finding it hard to use.
Can take pictures but can't/ don't know how to set timer . Can anyone help?

Not that good

Can't use timer, put photos into first and then library or use finished box.

Good.

Great timer. Could do with the ability to save frequently used sequences for quick setup.

In the right direction

I like the simplicity of this app & the use of "first this, then this" language is exactly what I'm looking for. However, I wish there was the ability to voice record & create a library of common activities. I like that timer is visual, as well! It's a good app with the potential to be great with some tweaks.

Really good app

This is an excellent app which I've been using with preschool children with ASD. I love the way I can make a first then board in 30 seconds using the camera feature, I timed myself btw. I love the way it's mobile, discreet, simple and easy to use. The timer feature is also brilliant. Love it!

Highly Recommended

Excellent app to support first-then. Quick and simple to use. I like the finished box and the simple timer. The best first-then app available. Bronwyn Sutton, Speech Pathologist

Very motivating App for students

As a teacher I find that App really helpful to motivate my students to compete their work. Very easy and logical to use!

Really Happy with This App.

Brilliant learning / behaviour awareness tool for all children. Easy to use and very effective. Kidex have done a great job with this.
