Can’t find what you’re looking for? Reach out any time. We’re happy to help.

Getting Started

What is Nuno?

Nuno is a screen-free visual timer designed for kids.

The gray, gradually expanding circle shows how much time has passed, while the yellow section shows how much time is left.

This makes the passage of time easier to understand, helping kids anticipate when an activity is ending and prepare for what comes next.

How does Nuno actually work?

Pick up to 6 magnetic activity tiles, like Homework, Chess, or Play, and place them into Nuno’s tile slots.

Set how long you want each activity to last by repeatedly pressing its tile, then press Start.

As time passes, the gray section grows while the yellow section visually shrinks, showing how much time has passed and how much is left.

When time is up, a gentle beep lets your child know it’s time to move on to the next activity.

What age is Nuno for?

Nuno is designed for kids ages 3 and up.

By tracking up to six activities and making the passage of time visual, it helps kids better understand time, stay on track, move between activities more smoothly, and build more independent routines.

Do I need an app or WiFi to use it?

No. Nuno is a standalone, battery-powered device designed to work without an app or Wi-Fi.

Using Nuno Day to Day

How long can I set each activity for?

From 5 minutes to as long as you need.

Unlike traditional 60-minute visual timers, Nuno isn’t limited to one hour, giving you the flexibility to match the time to your child’s activity, from a quick task to something that needs more time.

Can I customize the activity tiles?

Nuno comes with six magnetic tiles for common activities like Homework, Play or Music plus one erasable tile you can customize for your own activities.

Each tile snaps into one of the tile slots around the circle, so you can create a routine that fits your family.

Additional erasable tiles can also be purchased separately.

What routines can I use Nuno for?

Nuno can fit into all kinds of daily routines, from homework, reading, music practice, and chores to playtime, screen time, morning routines, and bedtime.

Simply choose the activity tiles and times that work for your family.

Can my child use Nuno independently?

That’s exactly the goal. Nuno is designed to help kids take more ownership of their routines.

By making time visible and showing what comes next, kids can move through their activities more independently, with fewer reminders from you.

Is Nuno helpful for kids with ADHD or other neurodivergent needs?

Nuno can be especially helpful for kids with ADHD and other neurodivergent needs who benefit from visual cues, predictable routines, and extra support with transitions.

By making the passage of time visible, Nuno helps kids see how much time is left and what’s coming next, making transitions easier to anticipate.

Product & Care

How long does the battery last?

On a full charge, Nuno lasts through several days of typical daily use.

It charges over USB-C, and the digital display will let you know when it’s time to plug back in.

Does Nuno make any sounds?

It’s designed to be a simple cue without being distracting.
