Great learning app
madtho

Has the same great look as Sakura Quick Math. There are 3 games with untimed practice mode and timed game mode. We here in the US don't use 24 hour time. I hope the app is updated soon to so we can turn that option off.

Wish it worked for US time
TubbyBartles

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...

Great practice for telling time
lynngus

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. There are 3 games that can be played, each with three levels of play--beginner, intermediate, and advanced. The app keeps track of the players time, so each player can try to beat their own best time by playing over and over again. Each player is only required to use a screen name to register. New avatars are unlocked as the player accumulates points. It is too easy, though, for a player to purchase another app created by this developer. I know there are ways to set restrictions to prevent this, but it doesn't keep me from disliking this feature enough to only give 4 stars instead of 5.

Nice Time App
ssbones

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. I had a little trouble when I wrote in the time because my writing was not always the best, but it will get you to write clearly so in the end it was helpful.

Fast Paced Time-telling App
DqTina

This is a wonderful app to use with students who are learning how to tell time. Students can be left alone to practice with the analog and digital clocks. This app is super interactive and keeps the students moving quickly from screen to screen. In one of the games, students write in the time, and in another game, students set the clock to a given time. The advanced game is really challenging, for example, a student is asked to tell the difference between the time on two different clocks! If you want students to excel at telling time, be sure to get this app!

Clocks

I thought this was a good app. There were three different areas to choose from (find the clock, set the time, question time). Within those choices you could select beginner, intermediate, or advance. I really like this feature, because a student could choose a higher level if the level they were on was to easy.
