Great for time blindness
Exactly what I needed!
With ADHD it can be really difficult to conceptulize time, and even if my next task/event is 2-3hrs away... the stress feels like I'm already late.
Being able to glance at my watch and see how much time I have left until my next scheduled event is a gigantic relief, and helps me to accomplish so much more during the day while maintaining my peace.
My only wish is that the smaller complications could show how many minutes were left, instead of simply showing "0H" (less than an hour)
Thank you dev for building this app!

Great app ⭐️
This app is the app that I have been looking for on the whole app store. It allows me to view the time left to each event on my calendar. My favourite is the lock screen widget next to the date and time.
I would love it even more if there was more complications and widgets for the apple watch for example a countdown rather than a circular progress bar and the ability to customise them.
Great app definitely deserves 5 stars looking forward to new widgets.

Great app that fills a need!
This is a great believe there’s nothing out there really like it. I can’t believe it’s totally free. Thank you so much for making it!
I do have one feature request. It would be great to see at least part of the title of the next calendar appointment on the corner widgets of the watch rather than just the hourglass icon.

Great and simple. Want more!
Perfect for my needs. Took forever to find it since all other countdown apps seem to not sync w calendar or have the simple widget.
Love to use it on my Apple Watch to show time remaining until my next meeting. The iPhone widget is useful but ugly so I hid it in a Smart Stack.
Appreciate the app. Would pay for a pro version for more customizability.

Update: NOT Broken on watchOS 10!
Below is what I originally wrote, which turned out to be due to an issue with my watch staying connected to my iPhone after updating to watchOS 10 and/or updating my phone to iOS 17. I had to unpair my watch but now everything works again. Cal Countdown is an amazing, can’t-do-without app!! So glad my issue was resolved.
This app used to provide an excellent, extremely useful watch complication, but it has suddenly stopped working on the latest watchOS. Perhaps something to do with changes Apple made to granting calendar permissions? I recall seeing other apps having to ask for calendar permissions in a very new way, granular after the update to wacthOS 10 and iOS 17.

Good Concept, Fatal Flaw
The widget doesn’t work, it only shows what time it was when you last used the app it doesn’t update. If you had three hours until the event when you last opened the app, it will continue to display three hours no matter how much times passes. I hope the developer fixes this, because I love the feature and it is very helpful to me in time management so it is unfortunate that it doesn’t work.

Simple and Works
Does what it says it does.
Unfortunately doesn’t work for me. I do Time blocking and want to see the current event so I can stay on task. Wish there was a toggle to show the current event instead of the next event.

So helpful!
This app is awesome. I have ADHD and struggle with time blindness. Having a reminder right on my wrist to tell me how much time I have until the next event is so so helpful. It’s so easy to use, I just keep my calendar updated and ready to go. My only suggestion would be a way to change the phone widget, I’d love if had a dark mode or a way to change the size of the font. Overall it’s awesome! Thanks so much!

Does what it says
Works perfectly. You need to enable calendar permissions in iOS settings - the app doesn't prompt you to do that. It would also be great to turn off the seconds.
Simply fantasic
Exactly the type of app I was looking for. The Apple Watch complication is simply genius.
Please consider allowing us to add multiple complications with different calendars assigned to them. E.g. one complication for a work calendar, one for a home calendar and one for birthday calendar.
Also please consider introducing a one time charge of like $1 or a donate but to incentivise continued support for this app.

Love this app
One of the first I install when upgrading to a new device. Must have for Apple Watch.
SUPERB! Thank you!!!
Wow!!! This makes my Apple Watch so much more useful! I can now better comprehend my time management at a glance and on a variety of watch faces. Really so cool and thank you for making such a great app! Great interface when you tap the complication it takes you to a detailed yet simple screen and gives you the option to ignore the event directly. Great to have an iPhone widget version on iOS 14 to pair. Only option I can think to integrate would be allowing a selection on whether the countdown includes or excludes seconds.

Watch app
Excellent complication. This is beyond perfect, thank you for making this.
Keep up the good work!

Love this but needs color coding
Love this app but would love to see icon color coding based on time until... for example: blue = nothing in 24 hrs, green = nothing in next 10 hrs, yellow = 3 hrs, orange = 1 hr, red = 15 min or less.
Icon should also be smaller leaving room for larger font.
Thanks for the app!

Great App!
This app is incredibly useful and the developer is very responsive to dealing with bugs!
Perfect for Apple Watch
Just what I was after, thank you.
Great App
It helps me keep track of how much free time I have before my scheduled appointments. Excellent.
Great Calendar App
Great way to see what’s next on your calendar without having to scroll through apps and open your calendar. Automatic countdown to the next thing on your calendar!!
