### 2/5 — Sucks.

*2026-07-25*

The only reason it gets a 2 star is because it’s nice if you have the subscription. Without the subscription you can only add one count down

### 1/5 — Widget stopped working

*2026-06-22*

Widget stopped working. Not worth it.

**Developer response:** Please try to remove the widget, restart the device, open the app, and finally add the widget again. It should fix the problem. If you still have problems, send me an email and I’ll help you fix the issue.

### 5/5 — 써본 디데이앱중 가장 만족스럽습니다

*2026-06-04*

여러개 등록해두고 위젯 만들어 놓으면 다음  카운트다운으로 자동으로 넘어가는 기능이 너무 마음에 듭니다

### 3/5 — Nur 1 Countdown möglich?

*2026-03-28*

Wenn ich versuche, einen zweiten Termin anzulegen, kommt immer eine Meldung zum Kaufen der App.

### 5/5 — top und schlicht

*2025-09-26*

einige Optionen, unaufdringlich, macht was es soll und fairer Einmal-Preis. Danke

### 5/5 — I am grateful!

*2025-03-29*

I cannot express how much I appreciate the genius minds that came to create these apps and HOPEFULLY more like them. 

The idea of having the beautiful UI I think it’s called, of Apple’s reminders, etc., is just 👩‍🍳🤌💋 “muah” -chef’s kiss. 

Thank you,

you don’t know how happy it makes me. 

-Proud user.

### 1/5 — No widget for iPhone screen

*2025-03-28*

I was disappointed to learn after purchasing the app doesn’t have a widget that can be added to the Home Screen. All widgets only show up in the app itself with a reminder on the day.

**Developer response:** Thank you for your review! Home Screen widgets are available and can be added just like any other iOS widget. If you’re having trouble seeing them, feel free to contact me by email—I’ll be happy to help you sort it out.

### 5/5 — nice

*2025-03-10*

work good

### 1/5 — Nicht so wirklich das Wahre

*2025-02-23*

Ich hatte mir einen echten Countdown erhofft. Es sollten auch die Stunden bis zum Ende am Stichtag erfolgen. Leider wurde etwas anderes suggeriert, denn es zählen nur die TAge runter.

### 5/5 — Great App Works as advertised

*2025-02-13*

The app has a free and an upgraded version. The Free version is enough to create a widget for tracking upcoming events with a countdown. (All I need for now) 

@Developers - I think it would be great if the app would give you instructions on how to set up your first widget sticking to the desktop. The constant popup asking me to upgrade is annoying. I would appreciate if it would be less frequent.
