Doesn’t refresh widget
The app serves its countdown purpose fairly well, but I noticed that the iOS 14 widget won’t refresh itself until you open the app. This seems silly, especially since I have background refresh enabled, and the requirement defeats the purpose of the widget (i.e., quick access to app content without having to open the actual app).

Great App
This app counts down and up, like many countdown apps. What sets this app apart from its competitors is the ability to repeat yearly. You can also import data right from your calendar and it can use the cloud to sync all your devices. It is a really good well thought out app!
Excellent; Highly Recommend!
This is EXACTLY the countdown app I was looking for. I wanted a countdown app that is fully supports the latest iOS developments. This app delivers in spades with: pointer support (including hover state and right -click context menus); ios 14 widgets (including customization of data-point selection and color) and Siri Shortcut support.
It includes support for all of Apple’s platforms including iPhone, iPad, watch and Mac. And it features iCloud sync of events to keep events on all those devices in sync. Many aspects of the app are highly customizable including: customize the data shown for events (days, hours, minutes, seconds); choose which events are displayed in widgets; column view of events; sort order of events and much more. The app received a huge compliment being included in MacStories’ Federico Viticci’s Must-Have Apps of 2019. It has a “clean” UI reminding me of an app Apple might build (the app icon is also very professional looking). And (very important), the developer is very responsive to requests for assistance and feature requests. I highly recommend this one!

Response from developer
Thanks for the very kind review! I hope to continue providing day one support for all the latest OS features!
I love this app
Far too many times there are crap apps for free and even for pay, but this is one of the rare times you don’t get what you pay for.
This allows for multiple timers, countdown, count up, and continue counting after the timer has reached its conclusion. It’s simple and it’s useful. Thanks for making this!
Be sure to tip the developer!

Allows Home Screen widget free
I wa a looking for an app that wouldn’t charge extra to have the real time countdown in widget form on my Home Screen. THIS WORKED so I am very pleased
Nice app
It supports widgets, Apple Watch complication which is basically everything I am looking for. I sent dev an email with some questions and got a response about an hour later. Well worth the few bucks to get the extra features!
Basically perfect
With this update the app does everything I need it to do. The only way it could be better would be if I could enter a timezone like “PT” rather than a city like “San Francisco” but that really is just me nit picking. Great job, dev
Best Countdown app I've tried
It enabled me to count forward and back, and I could choose and change the units from years to seconds and all in between.Excellent!!
Simple and Awesome
Everything you need in one app. You can keep track of the age of your newborn too by allowing the countdown to continue after the date has passed. Put in your newborns birthday and set it to continue countdown after - DONE! Really useful for those of us who have a lot of tasks and things to remember. Must have app. Not distracting or over complicated. Don’t change a thing!

Your search can end here!
Literally the simplest and most thorough count-down/count-up app I have found so far; and that is saying a lot! I have tried at least 25 prior to this one and have been overwhelmed and disappointed in the past by apps that offered so many extras, I can hardly see how it was considered a countdown app at all. This one is perfect. It was perfect without paying for the upgrade. But I was so impressed I paid for it anyways.
Thank you!!!
Thank you!!!
