### 2/5 — Abandonned app

*2026-03-10, version 4.6.1*

No more updates, so there are a few bugs. But it was a very good app before that

### 3/5 — Best countdown app but can’t log back in 😢

*2025-11-18, version 4.6.1*

I love this app so much, I’ve used it since 2018. Since getting a new iPhone, I can’t log back in to the app so I can’t access all my past events 💔 App Store says it’s not been updated in 6years so I’m not surprised but just sad to not be able to use it anymore 😕

### 2/5 — Disappointing

*2025-08-13, version 4.6.1*

App itself is ok but it is absolutely impossible to create an account. No matter what, the app thinks you’re trying to log into an existing account that doesn’t exist and will tell you your email/password is incorrect. Also even if I did have an account already I wouldn’t be able to access it because the password reset link is broken too.

### 1/5 — Not good

*2025-06-29, version 4.6.1*

Used to like this app but it’s no good anymore. You can’t select weeks as a countdown option. Try to watch videos for free packs & just get told no videos available. The ap hasn’t had an update in 5 years

### 1/5 — Abandoned app ?

*2025-06-23, version 4.6.1*

Cloudflare always reports bad gateway when attempting to login or create an account

### 1/5 — Needs attention

*2025-06-12, version 4.6.1*

This used to be a GREAT app. But lack of attention makes it not really much use anymore which is such a shame. Can’t edit current countdowns, can’t properly personalise new countdowns. No response from app developers. Look elsewhere until the fix this app.

### 1/5 — one star

*2025-06-05, version 4.6.1*

the app has deleted every single one of my countdowns.

### 2/5 — No updates

*2025-05-25, version 4.6.1*

Is this app still in use ? It doesn’t let me upload the event background pictures anymore or add an event end date so everything says ongoing

### 1/5 — No longer works.

*2025-05-15, version 4.6.1*

The server has been unavailable for well over a year and there is no sign of it ever returning. If you change phones and sign out of Countdown+, the likelihood is that you’ll not be able to get back in again and all data will be lost. I paid for ‘plus’ features and extra packs - all are now lost. This App should be removed from the store.

### 4/5 — Widgets required

*2025-04-24, version 4.6.1*

I wish you could add widgets on iPhone for this app, otherwise it’s perfect!

### 4/5 — Amazing App but…

*2025-04-10, version 4.6.1*

I want to create an account so I can login on any device , however when I sign up it ALWAYS thinks I’m trying to login and it says that my login is invalid ( bare in mind I have never made an account before). It may be a bug but it needs to be fixed immediately because this has been happening for months on end!

### 3/5 — Love this app but..

*2025-04-10, version 4.6.1*

Had this App for sometime now, never made an account but tried a couple of times. I’ve tried 2 email accounts both say invalid emails. Hope this issue can be resolved so I can give it a 5* thanks for listening.

### 4/5 — Good

*2025-02-12, version 4.6.1*

Really good 
1 star lost because of all the things I can’t do without paying for them, like I just think: I just want this picture let me. 
Although it is the funnest calendar my iPad can get so I still like it😁

### 1/5 — Paid for backup unable to back up

*2025-01-03, version 4.6.1*

Paid to have the full version of the app unable to create a account unable to connect it to Facebook unable to back up my countdowns . Absolute nightmare it needs a update do not waste your money like I did I now have to find a new app

Love it

### 5/5 — Great

*2025-05-07, version 4.6.1*

I have tried many countdown apps before.Then I found this.
It is easy to create your countdown and you can specify what your countdown is to.
Now,since I have downloaded this I can check every day and see how long away anything is.

I would highly recommend to anyone.Great countdown app!

### 5/5 — Genuinely a good app

*2025-03-05, version 4.6.1*

Never left an app review but this app is so helpful as my memory is bad so i basically use it as a calendar and it sends notifications straight to your lock screen so its the first thing you see when you go on your phone

### 5/5 — best countdown app fr

*2024-12-02, version 4.6.1*

the ui is a little silly at times but its so straightforward and does everything i need it to. have been using it since i counted down to my first one direction concert on may 29 2012 (4,570 days ago) and am still using it!!! 

just got really nervous that the app hasn’t had an update in 4y….. hoping that op comes back soon to make sure its still running smoothly behind the scenes 🙏

*2024-09-11, version 4.6.1*
