### 5/5 — Amazing app

*2012-02-15, version 1.0*

Great app for teaching time and making it fun for children.  Children learn the best when it is fun and all the Alligator apps has that.

### 5/5 — telling time the easy way

*2012-02-15, version 1.0*

I work with Delovelpmental Disabled children, in their homes.  What a delight this application is.  Not only are the children interested and enjoy it, it is easily adjusted to fit the child's current knowledge AND THEN you can up the skill level "just a notch."  Like their other apps, this is wonderful.  Thank you for helping so many children with your wonderful applications.

### 5/5 — Great apps!

### 1/5 — Waste of money. Avoid!

*2020-02-05*

Total waste. Avoid. No digital clock in the middle and makes no sense to use as a result.

### 1/5 — Awful

*2018-11-21, version 2.0*

Does not show the time to tap on the right clock.waste of money

### 1/5 — Not great

*2016-09-15*

Rubbish. Selections from settings page are not saved.

### 3/5 — Telling Time -The Easy Way

*2012-02-20, version 1.0*

I like this app for review and practice. would be nice to have a variety of ways to respond, ie, type in the time, etc. may be available in a full version?

### 3/5 — Options

*2012-02-16, version 1.0*

Please give the user the option to choose different labels, such as 3:15 (spoken as three fifteen) 3:30, and 3:45. I think that teaching it both ways is important. When I want to emphasize fractions I would select the option that is the default now. Thanks! Great start, though. :)

### 4/5 — Good app for beginners

*2014-02-03*

Great app for my little girl, especially as it has the option of 'the British' way of telling the time i.e. Quarter to ten etc. I couldn't get the customise bit to work but not really an issue. Having tried other apps I found this one the best. Really useful app.

### 4/5 — Almost perfect

*2012-04-10, version 1.0*

I really needed to be able to teach elapsed time as well. Example: it is 2:30 now what time will it be in 30 minutes?

I did use the app and customized it, but I needed more.

### 4/5 — Telling Time the Easy Way

*2012-02-25, version 1.0*

Great app for any age.  Be sure and look at the settings.  You can customize the app for any level.  We are using it with our Kindergarten students.

### 4/5 — Telling Time - The Easy Way

*2012-02-16, version 1.0*

This app is clear, easy to use, and has many adjustable features.  Features that could make it even better are ways for 1- and 2-switch-using students to access it.  Otherwise, it's fine!

### 4/5 — Good for telling time

*2012-02-16, version 1.0*

This is a great app to learn telling time. My only complaint (and I have this with every alligator app on my iPad) is when I try to change the customization settings the app shuts down. I need to be able to adjust what I am teaching (e.g. time to the hour, half hour, quarter hour, etc.) and while the app has the capabilities it ALWAYS shuts down when I change the settings. Overall a good app though!

### 5/5 — Telling Time

*2017-10-16*

Love it. And my students love it too! 
Very useful for children who can't talk, who use it to show they can tell time, even though they can't tell you the time.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2012-06-06, version 1.0*

This ap is helping my 5 year old son learn to tell time.  I love that it is programmable.  This makes it so he can feel successful and challenge him at an acceptable pace.

### 5/5 — Teaching time

*2012-04-26*

I'm loving this app! Using it to teach one of my clients to tell time and love that it's so flexible and easily customized.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2012-04-09, version 1.0*

Good app

### 5/5 — Telling time

*2012-02-25, version 1.0*

The app coordinates both analog and digital times.  I was able to customize the times to fit beginner time learner.  My granddaughter recognizes my clock chimes.  Now I can associate the app clock with mine to promote learning.

### 5/5 — Love it!

*2012-02-18, version 1.0*

This has been a great app for us because my oldest child is learning to tell time in Spanish. The customizable settings allow us to work with her in both languages. This is a huge advantage. Like another reviewer mentioned, we do have issues with app stopping when we change settings but otherwise we love all the flexibility in customizing the settings for this app.

### 5/5 — Awsome

*2012-02-17, version 1.0*

If your child is learning the time concepts, this app is pretty helpfull.  They learn to match the auditory referent with the visual one, and at the end,  they are able to use the correct phrase to tell the time.

### 5/5 — Another great app!

*2012-02-16*

Really looking forward to using this with my daughter, so far she really likes it. Thanks for another great app!

### 5/5 — SLPD

*2012-02-16, version 1.0*

I am starting with all of the options open, then removing cues in a systematic manner. It is working quickly!

### 5/5 — Great!

*2012-02-16, version 1.0*

This is a great app! Being able to save specific customizations and create different length "rounds" to help monitor turn-taking would be my only suggested improvements to better use it in the classroom. I love that it doesn't allow you to make a mistake, but tracking correct responses could be extremely helpful for teachers also.
