Made the countdowns look worse

Latest update changed the appearance of the countdowns significantly.

Countdown disappear randomly

Worked great for two or so years, then within the past year it kept deleting all the countdowns I made randomly. If I put if into a widget it stayed, but if I interacted with it after a while it too would disappear. Overall, does as advertised, don’t get attached to your countdowns until they fix it (if they have I’ll retract this)

Cool Concept

I wish the Names for your activities weren’t so restrictive. Also Widgets have got to update automatically. Having to manually change them each day is a huge hassle.

Great App, Sometimes Glitches

I much enjoy and appreciate what this app has done for me. My only current issue is that it’s glitched and the option to make a new countdown disappears unless I delete and redownload the app, and then it disappears again as soon as I do one action.
