### 5/5 — Just great!

*2022-03-25*

I discovered this app on YouTube and it’s so good! I have some things coming up that I am very excited for and now I can see how long until it’s gonna happen! It’s a fantastic app, you should really get it! 😁💟

### 5/5 — It works

*2021-01-27*

To my surprise it works

### 5/5 — ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

*2020-02-16, version 1.0.1*

This is EXACTLY what I was looking for! I would definitely recommend this app. 😄

### 5/5 — Well done!

*2017-01-20, version 1.0.1*

I tried this fairly new app because it was recently updated which tells me the creator is paying attention. As well it offered a countdown with day or month which I have been looking for for a loooong time. A simple click on the time screen changes it. I didn't expect a bunch of beautiful backgrounds thrown in so that was a plus. You can download the app and try it free with the ads discreetly on the bottom. I didn't think .99 was out of line for an app of this caliber so I ended up purchasing it the afternoon I downloaded it. It's really really nice to have that month option. Thank you for a well done, carefully thought out, timer. Nobody is paying me to write this. In fact the programmers don't know me from Adam so please take this to heart and give it a try.
