### 1/5 — Useless if older

*2019-05-12*

I purchased this to track how many days I have lived. It only goes back to 1970. That would have been good to know before purchasing.

**Developer response:** Wow, I am so sorry about this. I hadn't considered that use case! I'll take this into account in the next update.

update: please try the new version where the range of dates is no longer limited!

### 1/5 — Disappointing

*2018-11-05*

This app does not take time zones into account. As I live in Australia it doesn’t click over to the next day until 5pm in the afternoon.

**Developer response:** Thanks for the feedback! I feel silly I never thought about this. I will address this in a future update ASAP

update: please try the new version where I have addressed all time zone and time of day related issues :)

### 5/5 — Usefull and different from what other apps do.

### 5/5 — Beauty in simplicity

*2017-03-01*

There is not a more beautiful app for counting to something or from something. The developer clearly has an eye for the aesthetic. I've used other count down apps and they all are to cluttered and annoying! Awesome app, keep the simplicity coming.

### 5/5 — Best counter available

*2017-03-01*

This is an amazing count app. Simple, good design, functional. 

Get it.
