OnTaskTimer - Autism Timer APK Download for Android

Description

This app was designed to keep our autism spectrum disordered daughter on task.

Text to speech will announce the time remaining every five minutes. During the last five minutes, text to speech will announce the time remaining every one minute.

This is useful to snap our daughter out of "La La Land", and get her back on task.

This app does not yet use any wakelocks or alarms, but relies on the phone or tablet being always on. This works for us because we have a tablet that is always on mounted to the refrigerator. I may release a version with wakelocks and alarms if the app is popular enough and it is requested enough.

Questions & Answers

Q: What is an APK File?

A: Just like Windows (PC) systems use an .exe file for installing software, Android does the same. An APK file is the file format used for installing software on the Android operating system.

Q: If I install an APK from this website, will I be able to update the app from the Play Store?

A: Yes, absolutely. The Play Store installs APKs it downloads from Google's servers, and sideloading from a site like ApkClean.net goes through a very similar process, except you're the one performing the downloading and initiating the installation (sideloading).
As soon as the Play Store finds a version of the app newer than the one you've sideloaded, it will commence an update.

Q: Why ApkClean.net can guarantee APK 100% safe?

A: Whenever someone wants to download an APK file from ApkClean.net, we'll check the corresponding APK file on Google Play and allow user download it directly (of course, we'll cache it on our server). If the APK file does not exist on Google Play, we'll search it in our cache.

Q: What are Android App permissions?

A: Apps require access to certain systems within your device. When you install an application, you are notified of all of the permissions required to run that application.

User's Reivew

4 ★I have ADHD and I've been looking for something like this to help keep me on task. But for those of us who don't have anybody to remember to set the timer, can you guys possibly consider adding a schedule feature where the user can schedule the timer to start automatically at certain times of the day (ex: 1 hour before you have to leave for work on weekdays)?

1 ★How do you edit?! Maybe I just haven't seen where you're supposed to find it but anyway, I would rather have had the option of a clock visual. My soon to be 8th grade daughter understands a clock better. It would also be nice to have a more cheerful voice announcement and an alarm (preferably for me, a school bell type alarm)! I've been homeschooling her the past half year of school and it was such a horrible experience trying to keep her on task (with the cat sleeping next to her, and the lazy, strong-willed, I'll-bite-you-if-you-move-me furry thing won't go somewhere else to sleep; Daughter is SO obsessed with cats!). This app does have potential, though.

3 ★but it's not really practical to setup on the go

1 ★I'm sure the idea is a good one, but this thing literally crashed both times I used it, and that's not a level of reliability I will put up with.

3 ★Has potential, but currently keeps crashing for me rendering it unusable.

3 ★It would be great if u fix the bugs. It's stopping suddenly n not responding. Other wise it's an awesome time

5 ★The best visual timer I have come across.

5 ★Just what I was looking for.

2 ★I really liked it, but it had too many bugs to make it practical. For some reason, it kept saying what ever time I set was outside of it's parameters. Also, the app crashes when I turn the phone over to view it in landscape. Other than that, it seems nice. I will check periodically to see if there are any updates that fixes these bugs.

2 ★Nearly every time I turned it on, the app would stop working. Great when it actually would work.

3 ★It really looks like what I want but if my phone tips and tries to go into landscape mode it crashes. So currently isn't useful but if that gets fixed it would be .

5 ★Thanks developer. I couldn't find another app that did this!
