Leave a Review Countdown
Just what I was looking for!
This app was just what I was looking for. I had tried to use countdown apps to help me accomplish my goal. I needed to have the reminder in front of me constantly. But I always had to open up the app to see the countdown clock. The other apps didn’t offer a widget option. But now with this app, I can immediately see the countdown every time I open my phone. The one thing I would suggest is instead of a solid color background for the widget, perhaps making a feature that allows you to insert a picture for the background.Show lessktcuisine
Stopped working
I paid for the ability to add the widget to the screen on my iPhone. After a day or so I noticed the countdown was frozen on the original date I created it and not counting down. When you click into the app it shows the correct countdown. NOW, the entire widget is black when I try to add it onto the iPhone widget screen. Waste of money sadly :(Show lessJoynjrny
Eh
I didn’t like this app. But let’s start with what I did like: it is very useful for counting down the days, you can customize every single count down, and they have fun pictures and emojis. What I didn’t like was that there were too many ads, you can’t make a widget without paying for it and it felt too time consuming to make a bunch of new count downs.Show lessIvyerlina
Widget does not sync
Currently the widget does not sync properly, it will be stuck on a certain number of days while within the app the count down is correct, the only way I can rectify this is to remove and reinsert the widget. This is a significant drawback as I got this app and paid for the upgrade to get a countdown on the Home Screen, instead of having to enter the app to see the count.Show lessHakakfkskka
Developer Response
Hi Hakakfkskka, We are working on a fix to this issue, hopefully we will have it this week. I’ll keep you posted. Meanwhile as a workaround you can long press on the widget, tap Edit widget, the turn on the toggle that says Choose units and then tap Choose and pick the units that you would like to see on the widget. When using it in this way the widget should update properly. Thanks, FacundoAMAZING!!
Omg i can’t explain how much i love this app! I honestly don’t even mind the ads. It notifies you when the countdown is over and i love that! I set one for Christmas and it’s especially helpful because i always loose track of how many days are left. Once you have created the countdown you can click on it and it shows everything you need to know! You can even customize it with what color and emoji icon you want to be there. Overall i highly highly HIGHLY recommend this app if you are looking for a good countdown app. Have a great day!!!!Show lessMHNugget
LOVE THIS APP!! ❤️❤️❤️
At first my mom downloaded this app for birthdays, holidays, etc. Then, I downloaded the app and I’m in love with it! I have not once forgotten a holiday or a family member’s birthday! And it’s not just for holidays, you can add countdowns for anything! (I have a countdown for when my braces are expected to get off 🤪). For any countdown that you add, you can program it to repeat yearly, so you don’t have to keep reentering the info in. It also allows you to organize the countdowns entered. You can have the app organize it from soonest, to furthest, or you can organize it yourself. Whether you want it to be holidays first, then birthdays, or birthdays then holidays.
Also, when you download the app, it will give you the option to have VIP subscription. I highly recommend purchasing that as well. It is a $4 fee, and you only have to pay once. If you have an Apple device, and you get the iOS 14 update, then you can unlock larger widgets on your phone, only with the VIP subscription.
I 100% recommend this app!!!Show lessfmarlow1!
Love it but can’t find a way to share it - Updated My Misunderstanding
I really like this app very colorful very simple to use and much better than what I was using before. The only thing I have against it is that I can’t find a way to share it on family sharing with my wife. When I download it on her phone through family sharing, it requires me to pay again to do away with the ads.
I want to update this review as I misunderstood Apple’s “Family Share” it let’s you share apps you pay for, but not apps with “In app purchase”
These folks are great and the app is even greater, I really like the way they reached out to me in response to my review and were willing to help out. I have refused that they adjust their sharing part as this is an Apple issue.
Two things make this app great, it works and the folks that made it are involved in customer service!!! Great job!!!Show lessPeteInBayeux
One Time Purchase
I absolutely love that there is only a one time purchase and it’s a great price for all the features! I find this app super helpful with reminding me of when important things are coming up and telling me exactly how many days hours etc, so if you need an app specifically for being organised I find this helpful and it does the job!Show lessmillyandchelsea
Awesome countdown tool!
Used this app for years now, but has a few bugs since iOS 14 (iPhone X) such as the widget (on the widget page) not loading most of the time. Also would be great to set countdowns for weekly and monthly instead of the limited yearly option, would be handy for direct debit and bill reminders !! please add these features! Also a few more default color options would be nice as I use the colors as categories, or thinking about it, just add categories to the app! Keep up the awesome work!Show lesswhereisdemocracygone?
Great program
Update: Hats off the the Developer. Addressed the concerns and widgets are back. They are responsive and quick. Good job.
Update: The widget but has been fixed but the styles of widgets has been reduced from three choices to one. Oh well at least it works now.
There appears to be a major bug in Countdown for IOS 14 in which the widget does not reflect the change in days. The countdown day stays the same after a day has passed. Thus the widget is useless at this point.Show lessD163
