What's New in Countdown

5.29.0

September 25, 2026

Ready for iOS 27, with a bigger widget and a couple of visual fixes. Upcoming Events, the widget that used to be called Next 4 Events, now comes in the new extra-large size and shows up to eight events. It works at extra-large on iPad too. Alerts now stay in your notification list until you dismiss them. Opening the app used to clear them, so an alert could look as though it never arrived. The app icon also shows how many alerts you have not seen yet. Event order fix for customers in the US. There is a help button on the sign in screen for anyone who cannot get into their account, with help articles, support, and a diagnostic report you can send us. Premium purchases that had lost touch with your account now reconnect on their own. Thanks for counting down with us!
