Koala Countdown

Koala Countdown makes waiting easy, and fun. Whether it's a calm-down moment, screen-time ending, taking turns, winding down for bed or brushing teeth; little ones find waiting hard. Koala Countdown turns the wait into something to anticipate: set the time, choose a friend, and a cheerful friend celebrates the moment the timer's done. Beautifully simple, by design. One screen to set the time. One tap to start. That's it. No menus to get lost in, no distractions, nothing a toddler can accidentally break. A friend waiting at the end. Choose from a whole cast of adorable characters: a koala, puppy, kangaroo, kookaburra, teddy bear, robot, digger, dump truck and more; each with their own joyful little celebration when time's up. A calm, clear countdown. A big, friendly ring gently empties as the minutes pass and the colours soften, so even children who can't yet read a clock can see how much time is left. Two gentle ways to use it. Hand the phone over for a solo countdown, or choose Calm Together and breathe along with Koala, side by side, for the wobblier moments. Made for parents to trust. - A hold-to-unlock parent control keeps little fingers from ending the timer early, or lets you add a minute when you need to. - Locks to portrait, hides the status bar, and stays on the one task. Private and safe, always. Koala Countdown collects NO data of any kind. No account required. No ads, ever. No tracking of any kind. No internet required. Everything stays on your device. Try it free for 3 days, then a single one-time purchase unlocks it forever. No subscription. Great for: - Calm-downs and quiet time - Ending screen time without the meltdown - Taking turns and sharing - Bedtime wind-down - Tooth-brushing timers - Waiting in the car or in a queue Set it, hand it over, and let a friendly face do the rest.
