I'm running a 2 month old iPhone 6! I also find the icon of a dead bird pretty depressing to have on my home screen. Deleted. Thank god I didn't pay anything to download it. ### 2/5 — Keeps Crashing *2015-01-02* I keep trying to use the app, but during the set up for my information, it crashes right after I enter my birthdate. Please fix this because it looks like a great app. ### 2/5 — Crashes *2015-01-02* Crashes ### 3/5 — Crashes *2015-01-02* It imports Health data but then crashes every time it gets to the weight question. When you restart it, it'll suggest a 'deadline', but based on incomplete information. ### 2/5 — Needs to be fixed *2015-01-02* Constant crashing. Can't even enter weight. iPhone 6. ### 1/5 — Awful app *2014-12-17* Asks a few generic questions and throws a random age back at you. Not nearly as in depth as you'd expect for a chargeable app. Wouldn't even recommend if it was free. ### 1/5 — What happened to my countdown? *2014-12-12* I bought the app because it was a countdown clock. Now they are just telling me the age I will live to. I can do basic math I've got that figured out. I want the years months days hours and minutes left displayed. Please fix your app and I will update my rating to 5 stars. It gets 1 star just telling me when I'll die. Thanks but there are A Ton of websites that do that! Fix it!! ### 4/5 — Where did the countdown go? *2014-12-10* Nice app to make you see how your health affects your future. Definitely recommend. However... The new version dropped the countdown page. Any chance we could get that back? ### 4/5 — Make sure you tap the yellow button. *2014-11-23* I was trying to get this app to work and thought for sure it was broken. It wasn't prompting me to sync with HealthKit. I sent a message to the developer and he responded asking if I had hit the yellow button? I had not. In my defense it doesn't exactly look like a button. The questions that the app asks can't be terribly insightful as the drop down of answers didn't fit me for a couple of them. But after configured, the app does do what it says it does. However because of the lack of intuitiveness and poor answers on the questions it asks... 4 stars. ### 1/5 — Useless *2014-11-15* Don't waste your money!! ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Live to 130! *2020-08-16* Surely this app is a fail. Plugged in my stats and I’m going to live to 130! That’s statistically impossible. For an algorithm that uses numbers. Go figure. ### 1/5 — Obsolete piece of nonsense *2019-07-08* No updates since 2015! Health science has moved on, the first thing suggested to improve my longevity was to get some alcohol in me! It is barely morbid entertainment and could not possibly guess my “deadline” with the very limited dataset analysed. ### 1/5 — Not a countdown? *2017-10-05* Needs a countdown clock, as it advertises. Thanks ### 1/5 — Crap terrible app *2017-01-10* This app said I would only live 69 I flogged my age to 10 I'm 95 ### 1/5 — Hate the new icon and miss the countdown! *2015-04-28* A bird on its back sticking the feet up in the air is a cute way of showing death, and that's what this app is: a reminder of certain death, our limited time on earth, our mortality which makes relative all the mundane things we fuss about. Now we're going Disney: a dead bird is seemingly too much of a reminder for some people to handle without giving themselves a bullet or harassing the developers about how un-PC the icon is. Whatever the reason, now we have a happy bird, not sure what he's got to do with certain death. Might as well choose Donald Duck or Mickey Mouse as a logo for this app, would be equally meaningless. And what happened to the countdown? That's what I bought the app for! Is it a bit macabre? Yes, but that's the whole point. There no nice way of making it clear to people that life is a sexually transmitted disease that starts at conception and always is terminal. ### 1/5 — Where's the timer?? *2015-02-21* I can only see the estimated age... Was hoping for the clock with timer??? ### 1/5 — Great idea, ridiculous execution. *2015-02-11* I was excited about this app - great idea. Unfortunately, it crashed constantly. They've fixed the crashing now, but man... I have to ask why they bothered. The concept is dicey enough, but the questions are so yes-and-no broad and the distinctions so loose as to make it silly. Maybe that's the purpose; after all, there is a dead crow on the app. Deadline boils down to, "Wanna live longer? Exercise some, don't smoke, drink moderately, check out your family history and chill." While the stress of using it may have taken an hour or two off of my life, at least I saved you a little space on your iPhone. ### 1/5 — Crashes *2015-01-05* Can't enter in my data so pretty useless. First question is birthday, then the 2nd is weight. As soon as it gets to weight it crashes. Tried it 10 times and gave up. This can't be accurate if you can't even enter in your info. Using iPhone 5 with latest iOS. ### 1/5 — Think it could be better but keeps crashing *2015-01-04* Unfortunately I cannot finish setting up without the app crashing so unable to give a good review. Bit disappointed as I heard that it's meant to be a good app. ### 1/5 — Crashes. *2015-01-03* It would be great if you fixed the obvious crashing issue. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Might be a lie 🤔🤷 *2023-05-09* It told me I will live to 69 but I have a brain tumour and I might not live longer than 18 so it might be lying, oh well ### 5/5 — (: *2020-04-19* Love this app wish it had iPad support tho. ### 5/5 — It’s real!!!!!! *2019-11-15* It guessed exactly when I would die!!!!! ### 5/5 — I just wish there were a watch app/complication to go with it *2019-08-24* Useful information and notifications, but an apple watch app to go with it seems like a no brainer. Then every time you look at your watch you'll see how much time you have left. ### 5/5 — Great 👍 app ⭐️ *2019-02-16* Recommended. Love the simplicity and the health integration. Wish for an update 🌈 Here’s my suggestion: Gives badges, notification... whenever you improve moving or exercise... send a notification once a year to redo the questions to see if life style has changed 🤓 Great app, thank you 😊 ### 5/5 — Motivation *2015-06-12* I love the notifications of how much time I've added to my life when I exercise. Obviously not an exact science, but highly motivating nonetheless! ### 5/5 — Update fixed it *2015-01-23* Doesn't crash! made it all the way thru the questions. the countdown widget is great also. ### 5/5 — Countdown is still in notification center *2014-12-30* It’s still there, it’s just a widget. ### 5/5 — I've got to put up with myself for how much longer? *2014-12-30* Guess I should stop drinking so much booze it adds years on. This app is fun and a reminder that the choices you make now while you're young will greatly effect you when you're older. ### 5/5 — Optimistic Prospective on life Style Changes *2014-11-12* It really makes me think about how to live a better quality life. To the guy complaining about data erasure - this app has no way of doing that. Besides, such a thing would not pass apps preview. --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/). User reviews are verbatim App Store reviews.
