What Users Love About the App
“This app provides the user plenty of ways to practice telling time, from simple identification of the time on the clock in the beginning level, to elapsed time in the advanced level.”
“This app includes the option to create many student profiles which would allow a teacher to track their students’ progress. There are three different games that build a student’s ability to tell time. There is matching, manipulating a clock, and writing in times.”
“The app is a very effective use of class time and by tracking student progress, the app holds students responsible for completing games. This is a very well designed app.”
“My 2nd grader’s teacher told me he hasn’t mastered how to read analog clocks! I got this app as a bundle. I am so glad I did. He uses his finger to turn the arms of the clock and changes AM to PM. He tries to beat his records and now knows how to read clocks.”
“This is a nice app to work on learning how to tell time. There are three different ways to practice time. I like that it can be done on the 12 or 24-hour clock. I also like the three different levels to practice.”
What Users Dislike About the App
“It regularly folds in international format time and there’s no way to turn it off (e.g. 15:30 for 3:30 pm). For the kids in US schools, this is just confusing. I wrote them a year ago and they said they’d fix it. Still, no way to do US time only a year later…”
“We here in the US don’t use 24 hour time. I hope the app is updated soon too so we can turn that option off.”
“Does not work with updated OS. Please update the app to work with the current OS.”
