User Reviews

Event Countdown Widget is loved for its simplicity, flexible widgets, and strong customization options (colors, fonts, transparency, and icons). Many users have relied on it for years and appreciate that it doesn’t require extra permissions. However, the most frequent complaints are persistent auto-update problems: counts often stop changing unless the widget is opened, with reports varying by device. Reviews also cite a dated, clunky UI after updates and widgets that take up more home-screen space. Feature gaps are common requests, such as a 1x1 tile option and a months/weeks/days counting mode.
Pros
  • Simple and straightforward to set up countdowns.
  • Wide variety of widgets and widget sizes to choose from.
  • Strong customization: colors, fonts, transparency, and icons to customize look.
  • Does not require extra permissions on installation.
  • Long-standing reliability; used for years with generally dependable performance.
Cons
  • Widgets do not auto-update; require opening the app to refresh counts.
  • User interface and navigation feel dated or clunky after updates.
  • Recent changes make widgets take up more space on the home screen.
  • Lacks some features like a 1x1 tile option and months/weeks/days counting mode.
  • Occasional device-specific counting issues and inconsistent updates across devices.

THE best date countdown app on the market.

close to what I was looking for. once had a 7 segment led simulated countdown. seems impossible to find now, this however is suitably simple and hasn't asked for permissions. will see how this goes.

I have used this for years. Always worked very well.... Only complaint is that on S25 it doesn't count the days, only changes when you restart the phone.
