Visual Timer vs TicTali

A simple timer that shows the remaining time as an area you can see. You do not have to read numbers. Just watch the colored part shrink, and you know how much time is left. ■ A dial you can read instantly The sector gets smaller as time runs out. Numbers and tick marks are printed on the face, so you can also check the exact minutes. ■ The whole dial changes Choose 1, 5, 10, 30 or 60 minutes. Pick 1 minute and one full turn takes a minute, so even short times start from a full disc and you can see the whole amount. You can also set any length from 1 to 180 minutes. ■ Set the time by dragging Just drag around the dial. No number pad. ■ Hide the digits You can turn off the remaining-time readout when the area alone is easier to grasp. ■ Full screen Show only the disc, in a large size. Stand the device on a desk and read it from across the room. Works in both portrait and landscape. ■ When time is up Bell, beep or chime, or no sound at all. Vibration can be switched on or off. The alarm sounds even when the silent switch is on. If the timer ends while the app is closed, a notification lets you know. ■ Five colors Red, blue, green, orange and purple. Good for ・Study sessions and pomodoro intervals ・Cooking and housework ・Keeping to time in meetings and presentations ・Helping children get ready or tidy up ・Showing time to a whole room in a classroom

TicTali is a visual time and routine tool for parents, caregivers and educators. An adult configures and controls the experience, then shows its clear pictures and gentle animations to young children to help them understand what is happening now, what comes next and how time passes. RIGHT NOW Place today's activities on a moving time scale. Overlapping activities remain visible, while the sky, sunlight, moon, clouds, rain and snow reflect the time and weather in the selected area. The adult can use an approximate area or choose the weather location manually on a map. VISUAL TIMERS Choose a duration and turn waiting into something children can see. Stars, hearts, balls, bubbles, fairies, teddies, funny monsters, cars and unicorns can fill or disappear as time passes. Other scenes include flowering trees, falling leaves, water, mosaics, a rainbow landscape, a multicolour ring, a friendly bomb, a flood, digital and mechanical stopwatches, and an hourglass. The adult can choose whether to show digital time, play a sound, vibrate, continue the timer in the background or send a local notification when it ends. ROUTINES Plan everyday activities by weekday, date and time. Use the included illustrations or create a custom activity with a picture from the device. Personal pictures remain privately on the device and TicTali never uploads them to a server.
