Intervals ABA User Reviews

Forget it

This app comes without instructions and it’s not intuitive - how maddening to try to figure out.

Simple App that does the job

Great little app for collecting interval data and momentary time samples.

Can’t record observed behavior

You need to do an update and fix your bug. I just downloaded this interval timer as part of the $10 timer package and am completely disappointed. I am trying to record and observe a student’s off-task behavior in 10-second intervals within a 15 minute observation period, and was excited about the appropriateness of this app. However, once I set the timer up and ran it, I was only prompted every 3-5 intervals with the opportunity to record whether the behavior was observed or not observed. In this case I need to record with pen and paper, not a big deal except that the app does not make a chime noise or even vibrate at the end of each interval, so this app does not make my data recording any easier whatsoever. Extremely disappointed that I wasted $9.99. Was really hopeful about this as it seemed really appropriate for behavior recording in an ABA classroom. Add the option of a simple chime and/or vibrate at the end if each interval and fix your bug of the prompt to record behavior and this will be great. Wish there had been more reviews for me to read before spending my money. Lesson learned.

Bug fix needed

There appears to be a bug in the app where it stops prompting to record if the behavior was or were as not observed about two-thirds of the way during a 20 minute or longer observation. I really want to use this app as part of my classroom observations but it impacts my data when I can no longer record behavior observations. I also have to record via paper and pencil, which doesn't exactly make this app useful.

Not Functioning

Does not display a box to record observations of behaviour. It is just a count down app. I have gone to your website through my iPad and unable to send in my observations of the problems- no input box presents itself at the required schedule moment.

Does not work

I am super disappointed. The app does not ask if the behavior was observed. I have tried everything imaginable...and it does not work as described. Just a waste of money.

Pretty good, but need detailed results

I like that the timer automatically restarts. It's a great tool for interval data collection. A few minor things that would improve the usefulness of the app: (1) sometimes I need to terminate the session before the total session time that I input. The results displays the number of yes intervals over the number of original intervals instead of the number of completed intervals when the session was terminated. Although I can figure out when I t'd, if I am having someone else collect data and looking at the results later, I cannot tell. I'd recommend adding the number of intervals completed or when the session was canceled to the results. (2) i would like to be able to run the app in the background while doing other things. With push notifications, the app will tell me that it is time to record data but you have to go back into the app to actually do it. It would be great if you could just record it in the notification/alert without going into the app.

Awesome!

Affordable and simple to use.
Lots of options.
Colour scheme makes it fairly discreet when using.
Only wish you could email only specific persons tracked (not whole list) and that you could see data / graph within the app.

But it's great!

Fantastic

First, like the other review, I’d love to see the data exported in a format that would allow for easier graphing. I’d also like the ability to track more than one student/behavior combination at a time. Still, the app works great and looks great.

Good app! Needs graphing!

This is a good app for those in the field of School Psychology where you are needing to take data on a student. It will export to Excel, but in qualitative format and is difficult to set up to graph. Otherwise it's good information.

It does not work

Check the web site. Three people have written in complaining that they can not get it to work. We gave tried the help/support service received no assistance. I am VERY disappointed 😟

Interruption!?

I got a txt msg during recording; it stopped recording and deleted current data. I had to start the entire session over...wasted time & opportunity of mine & my client. 29 minutes in for nothing? Very disappointed. Also I need to run multiple programs...record multiple behaviors?

Hoping for solutions.
