### 4/5 — The Background On The Timer Selection Menu Looks AI Generated

*2026-11-04*

Thanks for listening to my original review on this app as I cannot tell if you updated the pictures and still were using AI to made them but you still didn’t change the background of the timer selection pages again as that easily looks AI generated as some of the white color things on it doesn’t make sense at all. But if you change that or if not AI somehow explain how you made it I will put my review to 5 stars.

### 4/5 — とても便利

*2020-08-12, version 4.0.5*

音楽が鳴り、4歳の子供は楽しくご飯を食べてくれます。

ただ、1つ改善点を見つけました。
1、2、3、4分タイマーをセットしようとすると、冒頭に「○分経ったらこんな笑い声が聞こえるよﾜﾊﾊﾊﾊﾊ」と言ってきますが、実際は終わった後に笑い声は聞こえず、「やったね、よくできました」と言ってきます。

### 5/5 — Excellent motivator

*2020-05-11, version 4.0.5*

Fun, easy to use

### 5/5 — Great App Drains Battery

*2019-02-01, version 3.0.8*

I LOVE this app. It’s great for my 6 year old. No more fighting too get dressed or leave the house on time. Music is soothing. Although if you don’t close the app your phone will be dead in a few hours.

### 5/5 — No more shouty mornings!

*2016-09-23, version 2.2.0*

I love this app, it works so well with my 5 year old, and I love the classical music it uses which suits all occasions.

### 4/5 — Great!!!!

*2015-10-18, version 2.2.0*

This app is great my kids love it, and it helps to keep them on task. I just wish that they had longer times 10,15,30.......

### 2/5 — Had high hopes

*2015-09-22, version 2.2.0*

This is such a great idea and it gets so close to being well executed. I use this in my classroom for timed activities and I wish there was a way to bypass the "introduction" every time. 
Also, there is no quit option of you accidentally hit the wrong time and then you have to sit and wait for the duck to come out and quack at you...
My biggest complaint is that once the timer finishes, if you don't hit the home button right away, it freezes and you have to restart the whole app every time.
I hope these issues get resolved because I really do think it is a good idea.

### 2/5 — You can't pay for the upgrades...

*2015-09-14, version 2.2.0*

The customization feature has been disabled.

### 4/5 — Great app

*2015-06-02*

My wife discovered this app, and it has proved invaluable. Our son derives great motivation from beating the timer or out lasting the countdown clock, and it's made achieving tasks such as teeth brushing a lot simpler. Thank you so much!

### 5/5 — Great app!

*2015-03-16, version 2.2.0*

Really motivates my children. Bedtime used to take an hour. This app makes me one happy mama!

### 5/5 — Luv it. Glad we bought

*2014-12-23, version 2.2.0*

My daughter still uses it at 8 yrs to brush teeth and she loves picking her own songs.  She also likes seeing the "prizes'. Like when the little guy eats a pb&j

### 1/5 — AI Generated Pictures?

*2026-10-18, version 5.1.0*

Just realized you started updating this app again which I really wasn’t expecting looking at the update history of this app more then 5 mouths ago but looking at the new preview screenshots for this app the screenshots feels so off as not anything was redesigned and what was redesigned is in a different style now and now there are different pictures on the buttons in the menus but when comparing all of them together their styles aren’t fully the same on like the eyes and mouth for example which makes me feel like you used ai and has a person who loves being creative and loves art I’m disappointed as using ai fully for pictures creates a miss opportunity to improve your art style and do your true art style, and the person on the app icon of this app never had legs, feet, and a tongue before and also never wear human clothes so these new pictures just feel wrong to me and like you forgot how your character works, so main thing I guess this review is leading up to is just leave this app alone it’s perfect how it already was, the only reason it should of got an update was to be compatible with the latest iOS versions but besides that I think you should of leave it alone in the first place.

### 1/5 — I WANT MY MONEY BACK!!!

*2021-12-09, version 4.0.5*

I hate this app. I got it about 4 years ago, the first year it was working fine and looked great. BUT after the year I had to update the app to continue using it. I updated it and then IT LOOKED HORRENDOUSLY TRASH! I hate the new version! GIVE ME MY MONEY BACK OR ELSE!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

### 1/5 — Do not update! No longer works :(

*2019-12-31, version 4.0.1*

I’ve been using this app for years. I updated it today and now it no longer lets me use most of the timers without paying. I am so disappointed.  This was a really great app. I regret updating it. I didn’t realize that updating would take away most of its function :(

### 1/5 — They took features away.  Now it doesn’t work at all.

*2019-12-30, version 4.0.1*

I used to have access to all the timers and now I don’t. And the timers I have aren’t working at all now. This was an awesome app now I’m just going to delete it.

### 1/5 — 課金したのに無料版と変わらない

### 1/5 — Not enough time

*2014-11-29, version 2.2.0*

4 minutes is the maximum time you can set for any task. Not enough time for some jobs

### 1/5 — Ne fonctionne pas!

*2014-10-22, version 2.2.0*

*2026-05-10, version 5.0.2*

### 5/5 — Gran actualización

*2023-09-14, version 4.0.5*

Me ha servido muchísimo cómo herramienta de apoyo para poder hacer ir mis peques hagan una labor que les da pereza hacer 🥳

### 5/5 — Love this app!

*2022-12-14, version 4.0.5*

We have been using this app for the last 5 years and it’s so wonderful! My kids love it, I love it, and it is incredibly motivating for them. ♥️ we use it in conjunction with other motivational tools to help my ADHD kiddos complete their daily tasks. ♥️ highly recommend! We use it every day.

### 5/5 — Amazing App

*2022-10-31, version 4.0.5*

The kids love it! My littlest one has adhd and this keeps her focused. I don't know what I'd do without it.

### 5/5 — For kids and adults

*2022-06-17, version 4.0.5*

Bought this when the kids were little to motivate them. Worked great!!!  The kids are now 9 & 14 I’m 56. We all participate and make it fun for the entire family. 

Must have for kids. Highly recommend it.  There is some kind of Nuro Assocation that the kids have with it that even if they don’t feel like putting their PJs on they do it anyway.  Whatever the tasks it’s brilliant!!!

### 5/5 — Lickety slipit

*2021-12-17, version 4.0.5*

I love this app I am still a kid but it helps me so much!

### 5/5 — Best app ever it has saved my life

*2021-12-03, version 4.0.5*

Thank you for creating this app it has cut down a lot of time and tantrums in my household

### 5/5 — Only thing that motivates my kids

*2021-11-23, version 4.0.5*

I can’t believe after a couple years there are only 9 reviews! We’ll here is # 10: I LOVE this timer. Yelling at my kids doesn’t work, but for some reason, Lickety Split Timer does. My daughter loves how there is a visual surprise reward if they beat the timer, I love the music. It’s just hands down the best timer for kids.
