TinyTock

TinyTock turns waiting into a picture reveal. Choose a reward, set a short timer, and watch a coloured wedge sweep away to uncover the picture, shifting from green to amber to red as time runs out. When time is up, the picture grows to fill the screen with a cheerful finish that stays on until you tap. Parents, teachers, and therapists can use it for getting dressed, tidying up, brushing teeth, quiet breaks, or any routine that works better when a child can see time pass. Built for small hands: - Chunky picture-book buttons and timer pods - Eight hand-drawn reward pictures for pre-readers - A green, amber and red wedge, like a classroom timer - A tick-tock clock while it runs, and a fanfare at zero - Quick duration presets plus fine 30-second steps - Eight built-in rewards, or a photo chosen on device - A control lock, so a child cannot add time or end the timer early - Sound, celebration music, voice prompt, and theme settings behind a simple parent lock There are no ads, no account, no login, and no purchases. Reward photos stay on the device.
