Countdown°

I started using this last year and it’s very easy to navigate, no glitches and they give you so many options of what your theme (page) colors of pictures could be from their library or you can use your own by uploading one of your pictures if you wish, but there’s something exciting about seeing the countdown pop up as your special event approaches. It is also a free service, I have never seen ahead any charges and again, I only use it for the very important people in my life as far as birthdays go or special occasions like graduations and vacations, I do not put everybody (friends/extended family) birthdays in it because that’s what I have a calendar for. It is not a necessity in life to have this app, but again there is just something exciting to watch the countdown of those special occasions pop up. Really happy I found it and I’m sure you will enjoy it too. I really would give it 10 stars if I could because it is one of the better apps I have found for a Countdown that is easy to use and read because there are so many out there and I had tried them but for one reason or another either you had to go to MIT to figure it out or it just did not look right or easy to read when the countdown would pop up, but again this one is very easy to use and read.

I use it to help me remember things that are coming up, and it also gives you a notification every day that tells you how many more days until an event that you need to be at, or how many days until a business trip is coming up. I find it very helpful, you can customize it easily, and you should download this app!

This may be available in the premium version (paid) of the app, but I feel like a major allure of countdowns is that you can see down to the second of when something will happen. (Year/month/day/hour/second) or at least (day/hour/second) would be a good way to also be able to display the countdown in my opinion. I did discover that if you tap the countdown number it'll display in (months/days), but again, this is lacking the (hour/second) allure of countdowns. Perhaps a calendar feature would also be nice (with week/month/day view available), but then of course you're running into the territory of just being a calendar app. However, it would be nice to have the countdown feature and calendar feature all in one. What I do really like about this app is being able to change the background, easily create & edit countdowns, and be able to organize your countdowns by life/work/birthdays/etc. It's a very visually appealing and functional app. Would recommend this app to other people!

App works fine, except I can’t figure out why the numbers are all wacky for how many days are left. My birthday was in June and it’s August. It said there were 5 more days...? So idk I’m just confused right now. I thought maybe it was the amount of reminders left (once per month or something?) but that doesn’t match up with the once per month reminders left for my event in November... so I really don’t know. I like the rest of everything. It works nicely. Also I don’t know how to get the notifications to turn up on my lock screen. A little disappointed on the front. Oh well. U still like it.

While all the dates I entered are counting down correctly, as far as I can tell, the widget/notifications/item features at the top of the list is not the next one up. It is the first one I ever entered. Unless the developer fixes it, I will forever be told how long it is until the next St. Patrick’s Day. Also, although it does reset the countdown number, the year it shows as counting down to remains as 2019, even when that date has past. This last one is true for all items.
