Thank you!

This app has been with me counting down to several happy events in my life. It does what you think it will, and you can make it look exactly the way you want it.

Cruise

Keeps me up on how close I’m getting to rent cruise ❤️

Countdown

Doesn’t show accurate countdown when on your Home Screen compared to in the app

Ads are inappropriate

Have had this for years and was a great app when the banners at the bottom were small. But now they are big banners in your face and sometimes very inappropriate that I finally deleted app. Sorry to see it go!

Sync Error message

Sync error is very frustrating please fix

Sincronização

A sincronização com o iCloud sempre dá erro. Não sincroniza.

No longer works

App closes a millisecond after I try to open it. Years of countdowns are lost!!!

Slowest app

I’m not sure how or why but ever since that big update with the ui, the app has been PAINFULLY slow whenever i try to make a new countdown. Please fix this!!

go memeory

this is fun thst you can remember events that have happened

Syncing error

I keep getting a syncing error pop up on all the countdowns I have. I went through troubleshoot steps to no avail. Still does a fine countdown, just annoying that the syncing error icon is on all the countdown timer pages I have set up.

Diff days

Idk why but sometimes my dates get wrong? I wish the app would automatically restart after te specified date has happened like for birthdays. I have to re do it every year

Really good but…

I really wanted this app so I could keep track of events and when they were happening the only problem is there are hardly any background choices if there were more it would be great like maybe even colours it would be 5 stars but I would still get it but that’s the only problem

Amazing

You should get this app 100 percent

Erro

Está dando erro de sincronização está dando uma diferença de 1 dia, e pelo q vejo está td certo

Awesome

I’ve been using this app since 2022, and it has made my shifts at work FLY by. Very VERY useful.

Great Countdown and Up App!

I mostly use this app for Timelapse. It’s the only app that’s fully customizable and is free. The only thing that would make this 5 stars would be the ability to customize the unit of measure showing on widget. Right now it only shows days and it would be great to customize if you just wanted years or months to show in widget. Other than that, it’s the best!

イラっとした

カウントダウンの一覧を出すと左からスライドして出てくるから引っ込めようと左にスワイプしたら何かを消した 編集を押してないのに気楽に消えすぎる

Lost everything

I have reached out numerous times letting you know all has disappeared. All my years of events. You have never replied.

Bugs and Lack of Support

I probably shouldn’t complain too much because the app is free—although, to be fair, the developer is earning revenue from the ads.

The problem is that iCloud syncing still doesn’t work, even after the update for iOS 27. I completely understand that bugs happen, especially after a major iOS update. That part doesn’t bother me nearly as much as the lack of response after reporting the issue.

The app says to expect a response within two days, but so far, nothing. It leaves me with the impression that this may be one of those one-person operations where the storefront is open 24/7, but apparently the customer service department is out to lunch. 😄

I’d happily change my one-star rating once the syncing issue is fixed—or at least acknowledged. A free app doesn’t have to be perfect, but if you’re accepting ad revenue and inviting users to report problems, some communication would go a long way.
