It could be better

The ads are annoying, they take up 1/3 of the screen and I dislike the sync error always popping up. There are much nicer countdown apps out there

Kev’s awesome app

Pretty easy and very convenient to use. I highly recommend this app.

I want to love it again

When I got this, it was fantastic. After 2 updates ago, I lost everything twice. I offloaded and redownloaded. Still having syncing errors, despite being up to date and iCloud being on for backup.

Given up

Sync error still not fixed
Sorry, finally given up

Very helpful

No reply from support

I think this app is really good however, I cannot get the red iCloud not synced icon off of my screen. There is no way to turn it off. I tried contacting Support multiple times and didn’t get any answer. after paying for it, I was just hoping for a reply.
Can you please just make a feature to turn it off, as then, it would not try to sync with iCloud?

Birthday 🎂 Countdown

Love this app. You can also reset the time for the same event for next year.

Hi Ho West FLYING W WRIGLEY

Counting the days til I leave for LQ

Very provocative temu ads.

I’ve never been on temu in my life. Nor do I plan to. Won’t be using the app anymore. There’s plenty out there. Don’t need you guys.

Works fine, but The ads are intrusive

Works fine, but The ads are intrusive. They obscure the lower third of the screen

Nova Versão Horrível

Na nova versão os eventos do widgtes ficam em quadrados gigantes horríveis ao invés de linhas compactas. Alteram o layout pouco se importando com usuários antigos.

Something I noticed

The app is almost perfect except there is times now when you are in the app, it struggles to load when making a new date. Not sure why but that wasn’t the case since more than a year ago.

Lost everything; wallpaper not working

I used this app for years. Loved it. But I recently started getting a ‘Sync error’ message, whatever that means. I sent an email asking what it means; no response. Now all my events have disappeared. I was able to restore them from ‘Recover my events’ in the app settings, but I can’t get my custom wallpaper to work. They appear in the library, but don’t carry through to my event. And now I’m getting the ‘Sync error’ message again! Even though the latest update, which seems to be all about iCloud, suggests that’s been fixed. Very frustrating! I’m thinking things should have been left alone. I’m now looking for a different countdown app.

Simple and Clear

Simple and straightforward countdown

Ads

Too many ads and a sync error that I don’t understand

The best

Why is Countdown Star the best? It goes five days hours minutes seconds and even months and counts down every single second. So crazy. Countdown Star is the best app. I totally recommend.

Mostly love it!

I love that this app helps me stay focused on all the exciting things I have to look forward to! It does have some glitchy-ness at times and right now I can’t figure out how to resolve the sync error that just started recently. I also just paid to remove the ads because they were getting annoying but $1.99 seemed worth it for how often I use this app!

Overall, I am happy with this app and I’m grateful that it reminds me that life is good and full of things to celebrate and be excited about!

Great timer

Banner commercials are fine to use this app for free. Our family loves to use this app to countdown exciting events.

GET THIS APP!

I love this app and it is so awesome. You should definitely get it if you haven’t already.

Sync Error - used to be good now it’s not managed at all!

DEVELOPERS PLEASE FIX FHE SYNC ERROR MESSAGE!!
Sync error message keeps popping up at the bottom of the screen since recent update - emailed the developers, no reply - super helpful thanks guys!! 🤨
