Tickaboo is a gentle visual countdown timer for kids. A cover slowly peels away to reveal a hidden picture as time runs out, so little ones can see how much time is left.

How do I hide a picture behind the timer?
On the timer setup screen, tap to add a photo. Choose any picture from your library, then drag, pinch, and twist to frame it. As the timer counts down, the cover reveals the picture underneath.
The "time's up" alert didn't appear.
Tickaboo needs notification permission to alert you when a timer finishes while the app is in the background. Enable it in Settings › Tickaboo › Notifications on your device.
What are the reveal styles?
Tickaboo offers a few ways for the cover to disappear, including a sweeping wedge, a draining sand effect, and a pixel dissolve. Pick whichever your child enjoys most in the settings.
Does Tickaboo collect any data?
No. Tickaboo collects nothing, has no accounts, and works fully offline. Any photo you add stays on your device. See our Privacy Policy for details.
