Span: Countdown & Time Tracker

Your relationship with time, all in one place.

Span turns time into something you can see and feel. Count down to the moments you're waiting for — birthdays, trips, deadlines — or watch how long it's been since the ones that already passed. Track your daily habits with Trackers. Explore what happened on any date in history with On This Day.

No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Just your moments, on your device.
