Description of Up Ahead

Up Ahead is a playful, beautiful way to keep track of everything you’re looking forward to. Create events in seconds, and build yourself an eclectic timeline full of birthdays, weddings, holidays, vacations, game releases, sporting events, or anything coming up that brings you joy. As your timeline grows, you’ll unlock themed patterns that can be used to give your events personality. Keep your countdowns top of mind with customizable widgets for your Home Screen or Lock Screen. --- CREATE EVENTS Up Ahead events are quick and simple to create — just give your event a name, a date (with optional time), a category icon, and a color. EVENT TIMELINE View your events in a unique timeline format that gives you visual information about how much time is passing between events, and allows you to easily look back on your entire event history. PATTERNS As you create events, you’ll start to unlock decorative patterns that can be applied to any of your events and appear in both your in-app timeline and your widgets. Patterns are unlocked based on the content of your events, or as weekly gifts. How many can you find? REMINDERS Schedule flexible reminders to get notified about the events you don't want to miss. ATTACHMENTS Keep all your event information in one place by attaching short notes or links to your events. HOME SCREEN WIDGETS * "Countdown" widgets are simple widgets for counting down to a specific event. * "Coming up" widgets come in multiple sizes and will dynamically count down to whatever event is coming up next. They can be customized with filters and display names, allowing you to create widgets such as “Next Raptors game” or “Upcoming game releases”. * "Timeline grid" widgets give you a colorful high-level overview of all your upcoming events. LOCK SCREEN WIDGETS Simplified versions of “Countdown” and “Coming up” widgets are available to place right on your Lock Screen. SIRI SHORTCUTS Automate event creation or ask Siri about your events with Siri Shortcuts. TIMELINE FILTERING Quickly filter your events temporarily so that you can get a clean look at just the film releases you’re looking forward to, or the birthdays you want to remember. RECURRING EVENTS Mark an event as recurring — weekly, bi-weekly, monthly, or yearly — to have it automatically replace itself in your timeline when an instance of the event has passed. MULTI-DAY EVENTS Give an event an optional end date to countdown to both an event’s beginning and its end. ICLOUD BACKUPS Automatically back up your events and pattern unlocks to iCloud Drive to ensure you never lose access to your data. EVENT SHARING Lightweight event sharing allows you to export and share colorful images of any event. SOUND AND HAPTICS Delightful sound effects and haptics bring the app to life. ...and lots more fun stuff to discover. --- The free version of Up Ahead is free forever, and contains no ads.

Reviews of Up Ahead

  • Love the iOS but needs iCloud sync

    Favorite app on iOS, but trying to use it as a macOS widget is tough only because the data doesn't sync from the cloud. I have to do a manual backup in the iOS app and then a restore from backup on the macOS widget every time I update something from my phone....making it more cumbersome than helpful.
    Any plans to change this in the future?
  • Simple, powerful, beautiful

    This is an awesome and well-designed app! The interface is simple to add events and make settings changes to customize how you want them to display. After playing with this app for about a day, I could see the value in this and upgraded to the lifetime (completely worth it) for all the features. The designers made getting new backgrounds as rewards for entering certain numbers of events or events with key words (hint: if you want an anniversary reminder, use the word “wedding” to unlock the wedding background; you can always change the title after you unlock the pattern) so that makes it fun to set up initially. Kudos to the developers for making this chore less painful!! Then the recent update allows for another pattern unlock a week. Between the background patterns, colors, logos, and tags (which are new and I have yet to explore), you can customize and categorize and make your timeline look and feel how you want. 5 stars, cannot recommend this simple, powerful, and beautiful app enough!
  • Best countdown app. Hands down.

    I’ve been looking for a great countdown app for a while. So many have inelegant UI or don’t function the way I would like. Up Ahead to the rescue! This app looks and works great. I like the layout and how you can see the number of days between countdowns. Being able to choose custom patterns for each countdown is a nice touch. The only issue I have is being able to bring myself to paying monthly, yearly, or such a high lifetime price for a countdown app. I use it as a nice to have, but not a necessity. While I can justify paying for a finance app or even a Twitter app, I have a hard time justifying paying a subscription for a countdown app. It’s possible that I might change my mind as the app is updated, but as of right now, I’ll remain a free user.

    Developer Response

    Thanks for the kind review David, and I totally understand if the price feels a bit steep for some right now. I hope to win you over with lots of fun updates over the next few months!
