Lickety Split App Reviews

Other timers stressed him out, but this one is fun and the little surprise at the end makes him want to do it over and over again. It has been a huge help with getting dressed for both my 2 and 4 year old kids. Great app!

This is a great app which is has really been helping me with my four and a half year-old son. He loves the music, and the surprise success images that display each time. The fact that they are random and different is great. He will ask for this when brushing teeth. I also use it during time-outs. I just use the reading timer since that is the approximate amount of time. In fact, when my son is on the verge of a temper tantrum because of a time-out, Ill turn this on and he quiets down, absorbed by the music and visual of sand falling. My only request to the developers, is that you allow us to create and save custom time amounts with custom songs. For instance I would use this for story time at bedtime.

LOVE this app. Use it as a pediatric OT and a mom.

Love this timer! Gets my ADHD daughter to finish things quickly. She lives it!

I had this app for awhile and the kids loved it. It was great for keeping my 7yr old from taking 30min showers, and my 5yr old from taking an hour to get dressed. And I love that I can use my own songs. HOWEVER, it has recently stopped working. Whenever I try to put on one of my iTunes songs, like I always do, the whole app closes. Ive tried loading and deleting, restarting the app, iPhone, and iPad, and nothing works. Its so frustrating! Please fix this ASAP!

Ive been using this app for over a year and it has truly changed the way routines take place in our house. After taking a parenting class, I learned about the vital timer to motivate children. Convinced there was something better than a kitchen timer to motivate my kindergarten son to start and end his routines, I came upon this app after having tried several others that just didnt cut it. He loved it. He loved seeing the animated "frog" (a childs imagination) on the screen, and the combination of sounds just hit the spot. After a year it still works to get him out of the house on time every morning, to the dinner table, homework complete, or whatever other task is next - and without mother/son quarrels, yelling or arguments. I truly love I and am very grateful for it every day.

This has motivated my 2 year old to get dressed, get ready for bed, brush his teeth, and get ready to leave the house. Totally effective!

I love this app, my kids are racing the app and each other I just wish I could set my own time limit 5, 10, 15 minutes even would be nice but this only goes up to 4 minutes.

Disappointed. I wanted to use this to give my toddler an idea of how long she needed to stay in her room for "quiet time"/nap time. Unfortunately "custom time" is only your choice of 1,2,3 or 4 minutes. Thats hardly "custom" and certainly not long enough for my needs (an hour - hour and a half). Its a great idea and catchy interface for kids though. Great for short time needs.

I was so happy to find the free version of this app at first. It was a great concept to encourage my daughter to pick up her pace on most things in her day. Got the paid version so I could set the timer to 20 minutes for dinner (the main reason I got the app) and found out the custom time options are only 1, 2, 3, or 4 minutes. The app also hasnt had any updates since 2014, even though other people have left similar reviews as mine, so it doesnt seem promising that there will be any expansion of these features.

Nice timer but definitely need more custom time options longer than 4 minutes. A 5 and 10 min would be nice
