You set the time. Then you can see it — all the way down to zero. Mitoki shows time as blocks instead of numbers. One block vanishes at a time, so someone who cannot yet read a clock can still see how much is left — from across the room, without asking. HOW YOU USE IT Short time — for the moment happening now. A big block is ten minutes, a small one is two. Put a picture on a block so it is clear what happens when it is gone. Long time — for the afternoon or the whole day. A big block is an hour, a small one a quarter. Day schedule — build the day from clock times and pictures. Mornings, evenings, an outing. You can see where in the day you are without anyone having to say it. Measure and compare — a stopwatch where the blocks fill up instead of emptying. Time how long brushing teeth takes, save it with a name and a picture, and compare it with the next one. A boring stretch and a fun one can be the same length, but the fun one feels shorter — and noticing that is exactly how a sense of time is built. Several at once — one timer per person or activity, all running together. See them all as a list, or open one row in full view when someone needs their own timer in front of them. BUILT FOR EVERYDAY LIFE • Works fully offline, and on older phones • No account, no ads, nothing leaves the phone • A parental lock so a running timer cannot be changed by accident • Dark mode and colour themes • The sound plays even when the phone is on silent WHO IT IS FOR For anyone who would rather see time than count it. For those who struggle to feel time passing — with ADHD, autism or time blindness. And for anyone waiting for something without knowing how long. You set it up. The time shows. That is the whole idea. Mitoki requires a subscription: a yearly plan with a 14-day free trial, a monthly plan, or a one-off purchase. Current prices are shown in the app and on this page. The trial becomes a subscription unless it is cancelled at least 24 hours before it ends. Manage or cancel it in your App Store settings.
