Sprout shows a young child how much time is left, without asking them to read a clock. Pick a routine. A playful world shows time passing. When the timer finishes, a gentle ending unfolds, a sound plays, and a star is earned. WHY A VISUAL TIMER Young children can understand a shape getting smaller before they can read a clock. Sprout turns an abstract wait into something they can watch. ELEVEN WORLDS Each world gives time a different visual story: - Garden: a ring empties, and a seed grows into a sprout. - Ocean: the water level falls, and a clam opens on a pearl. - Rocket: a ship crosses the sky and lands on a planet. - Reef: a jellyfish drifts down, and the coral lights up as it arrives. - Rainbow Loom: colorful threads weave into a finished creation. - Moon Bakery: a little bakery brings a warm routine to life. - Cloud Harbor: a cloud-whale airship gathers a breeze and takes off. - Colour Tide: flowing color recedes until the canvas is clear. - Moss Hollow: a tiny mushroom village grows in a softly lit 3D world. - Crystal Cavern: golden sand settles inside a glowing 3D hourglass. - Tiny Railway: a little 3D train follows its route to a cozy station. Garden is included. The other ten worlds are part of the one-time unlock. Parents can try each world's animated preview before buying. MADE FOR FAMILY ROUTINES - Six ready-to-use routines: brush teeth, clean up, bath time, wind-down, screen time, and playdate. - Create up to two custom routines for free, with more included in the unlock. - Choose whether the timer shows its numeric countdown. - Pick from six gentle ending sounds. The free custom-routine editor includes three, and the unlock makes all six available there. - Add one of your own photos to a custom timer with the unlock. - Hold to stop, so an accidental tap cannot end a running timer. - See time remaining in Home Screen, Lock Screen, and StandBy widgets. - Earn simple stars with nothing to spend, buy, or lose.
