## What is Count Widget?

Thanks to this application (and the other Widget apps from PacoLabs), you can now customize the Home screen and the Today view of your device, by adding custom widgets for some specific purposes.
From anywhere in your device, you'll have access to your own information and actions.

Each Count widget allows to manually count the various events or the things of your choice.
The values of your counters can be incremented, decremented and also reset by touching the dedicated buttons.
A custom name can be displayed and the look can be customized.

Those Widgets are compatible with the new iOS 14 Home Screen Widgets.

The application is really easy to use and is adapted to the fresh look of your device.
Dark mode of iOS13  is supported.

In Today view:
You can add as many widgets as you want and they will be displayed in up to 3 different lists. Those same lists will be available in the Today view and in the application (although it is possible, if you want, to hide some widgets in the Today view).
To avoid overloading the Today view, when too many widgets are displayed, an intuitive control will allow you to navigate from one widget to another.
Even if the main purpose of the app is to view the widgets in the Today view, it can also be very handy to view them directly in the application (a long press on a widget in the Today view will open it directly in the main application).

### 2/5 — Widget untauglich

*2021-05-06*

App funktioniert gut, allerdings zeigt das Widget den Counter nur an, ein hoch/runterzuholen ohne in die App gehen zu müssen wäre die Lösung..vorerst 1 Euro umsonst ausgegeben. Vielleicht wird diese Funktion ja noch implementiert.

### 5/5 — Thank you!

*2021-01-05*

Awesome app! The developer responded to my previous review and made some great changes in the recent update!

**Developer response:** Thank you 🙂

### 1/5 — Wie fügt man den Countdown als Widget hinzu?

*2020-09-29*

Leider ist es mir nicht möglich die App als Widget hinzufügen. Sie wird gar nicht erst als mögliches Widget angezeigt. Bitte um Hilfe.

**Developer response:** Hallo, das Update, mit dem Sie die Widgets auf Ihrem iOS14-Startbildschirm hinzufügen können, wird bald verfügbar sein.
Vielen Dank für Ihre Geduld.

### 4/5 — Tolle App, gut für meine Bedürfnisse, aber...

*2020-02-01*

Hallo, ich finde die App toll...sie deckt genau meine Bedürfnisse, aber was noch das ganze Paket für mich runder machen würde wäre bei der Eingabe einer weiteren Einheit die Hinterlegung des Datums und der Uhrzeit wann die letzt Einheit hinzugefügt wurde 👍

### 5/5 — Handy

*2015-02-28*

Get 3 different sections to put any number of clicker counters you need.  Custom sizes & colors makes this even better.
