User Reviews

Reviews consistently praise the app’s clean UI, color coding, rich customization, and reliable widgets plus cross-device syncing. Many users rely on it for years and value responsive support. However, pricing and ads in the free version are recurring downsides, with several reviewers noting subscription gating or sneaky charges. Other common requests include missing Live Activity support and weaker list-management options in the free tier. Overall, it’s a flexible, well-supported countdown tool, balanced by ongoing concerns about pricing and feature access.
Pros
  • Clean, simple interface with color coding to categorize events and flexible time unit display (days, weeks, months, hours, minutes, seconds).
  • Rich customization options including colors, emojis, and the ability to count up or down across many events.
  • Widgets and cross-device syncing, including a free widget, keeping data in sync across iPhone, iPad, and other devices.
  • Reliable performance over years with responsive support and quick bug fixes when issues arise.
Cons
  • Ads in the free version and features gated behind a subscription, with some reviewers calling pricing opaque or sneaky.
  • Bugs and display issues reported by multiple users, including a blank countdown display, counts that appear off by hours, and font size problems on Mac.
  • Missing features for free users (e.g., Start Live Activity) and limited in-app list management, leading to requests for better viewing and categorization options.

We have been using this app for years. First, I used it as a way to countdown to my due date when I was pregnant. Now I use it as a way to track my son’s seizures. It was a sad moment when I have to turn the clock back to zero, but as of today he is 3 years, 10 months, 4 days away from his last seizure. That is pretty encouraging to see.

The interface is clean and very simple. Color coding upcoming calendar items helps me highlight categories of events so I can easily tell between a race, vacation, medical thing, etc. Very useful. I keep it up at all times so a quick glance is all I need to days remaining for any event. Also nice that I can specify whether I want to see days, months, weeks, etc. and even hours, minutes and seconds. Nice, simple, effective application.
