## What is RetirementTracker?

How many workdays are left until you retire? RetirementTracker is your retirement countdown: it counts not just the calendar days until your retirement date, but your real workdays – weekends, your region's public holidays and your vacation are already deducted. Up to date every day, live down to the second. Whether retirement is months or many years away, RetirementTracker keeps your finish line in view.

YOUR RETIREMENT COUNTDOWN
• Calendar days until your retirement date, live with hours, minutes and seconds
• Your actual workdays until retirement – after weekends, public holidays and vacation
• Career progress: what percentage of your working life is already behind you?
• Weeks and months until retirement at a glance
• Motivating messages for your final years at work
• Share your countdown as an image with family, friends and coworkers

TRANSPARENT CALCULATION
No guesswork: the detailed breakdown shows how your workdays add up – weekdays, non-working days, your region's public holidays and your total vacation entitlement until retirement, including the vacation you haven't planned yet.

YOUR RETIREMENT PLAN, YOUR RULES

• Work phases: plan changes to your workweek, such as fewer workdays before retirement
• What-if plans: save different retirement plans and compare them

MILESTONES & REMINDERS
• Automatic milestones such as 1,000, 500 or 100 days left
• Your own milestones for personal stages
• Reminders on the milestone day and the day before at 8:00 AM

VACATION, HOLIDAYS & LONG WEEKENDS

### 3/5 — So so app

*2026-07-08*

I wanted a retirement calculator with a home screen widget so tried this one. I find out after installing that is an additional purchase. The App Store description doesn’t mention this. It isn’t the price that is the problem but the fact it is hidden until after installing. It also has some bugs like localization problems with American English. It displays the word “days” as “tage” and words like Labor as Labour. The calendar feature for accounting for vacation, holidays and weekends is nice. I am neutral on recommending as it needs to be fixed and the in-app purchase needs to be clearly stated.
