What happened?

It seems the app has been updated and I have now lost all the information I had in the notes for my forthcoming cruise. Thanks for nothing !!

Better backgrounds but still not right

You can read the numbers and text now but why are they in white boxes that spoil the background picture. They used to be just on the pic with no borders around them 🤷🏻‍♂️

Bad format

The new format is pretty rubbish, go back to the original list option

Countdown widget doesn’t work

Widget doesn’t work so I have to go into the app which makes it pointless having a countdown app. DELETE

Update mess

Was brilliant. After recent update, it’s brought back some of my old countdowns as current ones and the display isn’t as good. Please reverse.

Change the display back

Previously liked this app but since update countdown display is no where near as good, partially hidden in little boxes which obscure the background photo & are not easily readable

Wrong calculation

Add an event for Saturday 8am , it is currently Thursday 3am, the countdown states it starts in 5 hours ? What happened to the missing 2 days ?

Holiday countdown

Really good it’s a very good app so I can see how many days to events and other things

Just one more thing I think you should automatically have Christmas, Halloween, New Year’s Eve and day

Other wise really brilliant app
