## What is Countdown for Disney World?

Join users that have tracked over a million Disney & Universal vacations with the best countdown app on the app store.

"Hands down the best Disney vacation countdown app. Do yourself a favor and get this one!"

"Love how I can make it look the way I want with nice wallpapers and my own photos. Two thumbs up!"

Countdown by Magical Trip Guide is the premiere vacation countdown timer app for Disney parks, Universal parks, and Disney Cruise. Simply enter your vacation start date and the type of vacation, and you'll get a beautifully designed view of the time to your trip, right down to the second. Customize the look of your countdown by selecting from a series of themed wallpapers, import your own from your photo library, or use the power of AI to generate a custom Magic Wallpaper.

** NEW: Track multiple vacations **

Tracking more than one upcoming trip? Add as many vacations as you'd like and switch between them with a tap.

Need more help planning your vacation? We've got you covered there too. Once you've set your trip start date, the app shows you a list of important to-do items with due dates — whether you're planning a Disney Parks visit or a Disney Cruise. Easily toggle push reminders or export straight to iOS calendar/reminders.

Countdown by Magical Trip Guide is also a great iOS citizen. It supports Siri Shortcuts, allowing you to ask Siri to "check my vacation countdown", right on your iPhone or Apple Watch and to incorporate your countdown into any routine within the Shortcuts app. With both home screen and lock screen widgets, you can check your countdown at a glance. With full support for both light and dark modes, the app looks beautiful under any configuration. And, for users of assistive tech, you'll find it is fully optimized for accessibility features such as VoiceOver and Dynamic Type.

### 5/5 — 10/10 countdown app!

*2026-07-27, version 2.0.0*

Very easy to sign in and create accounts and trips!

### 3/5 — I’m keeping but like…

*2026-06-21, version 2.0.0*

Okay but like why am I paying for a widget 🤨 Widgets should be free. I could probably get a widget countdown from the default clock app! Yes you might be saying “this one has the bg!!” Also stuff like oMg bUt tHis OnEs cUtEr!! WELL IDRC!!! I can just color my apps and widgets and change my wallpaper! I’m still keeping it.

### 1/5 — Limited features

*2026-05-31, version 2.0.0*

This app offers very limited widget options, which was not  something I could know until doing a plus account. The wallpapers are also only for the app and not downloadable for your iPhone. Not worth the download and certainly not worth the money.

### 5/5 — Good

*2026-02-24, version 1.0.20*

I’ve used it for a few years now. Works well. The AI integration for the custom background is cool.

### 5/5 — So far so good

*2026-01-16*

Just downloaded it, so far so good

### 4/5 — A Great Reminder

*2025-12-02, version 1.0.10*

Love being able to go to Disney, and I love even more the reminders I get from this app!

### 5/5 — CUTE!

*2025-07-24, version 1.0.10*

this is such a cute and fun way to track on my computer vs. always going to my phone!!

### 1/5 — Not worth the price

*2025-05-28, version 1.0.20*

This is one of those apps that doesn’t tell you it cost money until you download it. And it’s a subscription based and if you ask me, it’s way overpriced. There’s a lot of better apps out there.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t update

*2025-04-30*

Widget has stopped updating and images do not refresh. Tried to uninstall and reinstall but on doing so the app won’t restore my premium purchase so now the widget doesn’t display at all

### 5/5 — Disney countdown

*2025-04-25, version 1.2.19*

Cool app
