For young children, set up by a parent
Timo
A calm hourglass timer for kids
Timo turns waiting into something children can see. Pick a ready timer or set your own, choose a sand colour and an animal friend, and watch the hourglass empty. When the sand settles, a soft chime plays. Nothing in the app is meant to startle.
Time kids can actually see
A hand-drawn hourglass fills and empties in real time, so kids can see time passing. Ready-made 5, 15, 20 and 30 minute timers, or set your own length.
Gentle from start to finish
Soft end-of-timer sounds chosen so nothing startles. A child lock, on by default, means buttons need a double tap and the timer can't be closed while it runs.
Make it their little world
Choose an animal friend, a sand colour and a background scene. Timo Premium adds Ocean, Forest, Space, Princess and Farm themes, ten more friends, and saved routines like Teeth time and Tidy up.
