Set the minutes. Tap Start. When the color is gone, time is up. A plain visual countdown for kids — no cartoon animals, no jumping characters, nothing to fiddle with. Just a color shrinking, so a child who can't read a clock can still see how long is left. Leave the app and it keeps running. It will tell you when time is up. No ads, no subscriptions, no accounts, works offline. Timers up to 8 minutes are free; one optional purchase unlocks longer ones, up to 2 hours.
