AboutNumbers vs Zeitkompass

AboutNumbers is an early math application aimed at dealing with counting, sets, numbers and calculating in the number domain up to 10. An important feature throughout the entire applications is the structured representation of sets (2 lines and 5 columns) to facilitate non-counting strategies of recognizing sets, the understanding of the relation among numbers and the notion of numbers in general. AboutNumbers for iPad is available in 2 versions: - AboutNumbers: Only a limited number of exercises can be used. An In-App Purchase is required to use all exercises. - AboutNumbers PRO: All exercises can be used without limitation. The application is designed for pre-school and elementary school children with or without impairments, for people with math deficiencies, as well as young people and adults with learning disabilities. The application contains a wide number of increasingly complex exercises. Each exercise is aimed to further a specific skill (e.g. counting or calculating). Completed exercises are recorded by the application to document the learning progress. To enable the use of this application with several people, a user manager is offered. Individual settings and results will be saved and can be loaded quickly. The exercises can be operated by alternative input devices such as external switches or eye tracking. Objectives: Practice counting and calculating in the number domain up to 10 Train non-counting strategies of recognizing sets Areas of application: Early Intervention Children and adults with learning disabilities Dyscalculia

With Zeitkompass, staying on top of daily life becomes easier and more visual. Now also featuring METACOM symbols! This app offers symbol-based weekly and daily planners. It is especially designed for people who struggle with time concepts, traditional calendars, or daily schedules. Using emojis, METACOM symbols, and photos, activities such as appointments, tasks, and events can be created and displayed in a simple way. The visual representation of the daily plan helps increase independence and provides a greater sense of security in everyday life — for example, for people with autism, ADHD, or learning difficulties. A special highlight is the integrated text-to-speech function, which allows all activities to be read aloud at a touch. This ensures an accessible and intuitive user experience, also suitable for people with special needs. In addition, the app reliably reminds users of upcoming tasks so that no important appointments are forgotten. SYMBOL-BASED DAILY & WEEKLY PLANNERS More time orientation in everyday life! By using emojis, METACOM symbols, and photos, planning and understanding daily schedules becomes easier and more visual. REMINDERS FOR UPCOMING ACTIVITIES Finally independent and on time!
