The first app I download on any new device. It is very useful to me to better keep track of time

Excellent app and works like a charm.

Love this

Don‘t close the App and it works fine. Especially good for those of us with ADHD who don’t track time very well.

Time blindness handy helper!!

I downloaded this app after learning about “time blindness” for people with ADHD. It has helped immensely!! I only dinged 1 star off because it was a little complicated to set up

FAQ

What does TalkingTime do?

TalkingTime speaks the current time audibly at user-defined intervals, such as on the hour, half-hour, or quarter-hour. It also functions as a pill reminder. The app is designed to be 'set and forget', running efficiently in the background after initial setup to conserve battery.

How does TalkingTime save battery?

The app only runs during its setup phase. Once configured, it operates efficiently in the background without significantly draining your phone's battery. This 'set and forget' approach allows you to use your phone for other tasks while still receiving time announcements.

Does TalkingTime support different time formats?

Yes, TalkingTime respects your phone's existing time setting. It will announce the time using either the 12-hour (AM/PM) format or the 24-hour format, depending on what you have configured on your device.

Is TalkingTime free to use?

The application is free to download and use, with the option for in-app purchases. This allows users to access all features and functionalities of the app.
