For instance, I have 46 days left but it says 1092 hours. I don’t teach for 24 hours a day! If I could put my start and end time for each day it would be more accurate of around 368 hours, 22,080 minutes, etc. ### 4/5 — Widget *2023-01-24, version 3.7.2* Great app but would be great if there was a widget instead of having to go into the app ### 4/5 — Countdown incorrect *2022-05-31, version 3.7.2* So on Thursday May 26 the countdown was correct (14). Today May 31 I’ve lost a day (12). I even removed all the exception days and put them back. So to make it accurate I had to change the last day of school. I’m going to check after I send this to make sure the first day is correct. ### 2/5 — Does not work with IOS 14.5 *2021-04-30, version 3.7.2* This app no longer works on iPhones if you have IOS 14.5. Very frustrating since I paid for this app! Please update! ### 3/5 — Some tips *2018-08-14, version 3.7.2* So I use this app, I like how it countdowns without weekends, but I do have some tips for this app to make it nicer like everyone likes: 1. If this app just does a countdown, then the classes mightn't, but you did make it had classes, that means not everyone has the same schedule every day like me, Friday’s schedule different than other days. 2. Like I have two different classes schedule first semester and second semester, so I can't just put one in without set any days start and end. 3. The days do not include school one by one is too tired for the user do it. Like Christmas break, spring break, these are big holidays for ours. 4. Timetables, we have different schedule Friday ### 2/5 — Update *2018-03-13, version 3.7.2* Needs updated ### 2/5 — Sharing pointless *2015-09-09, version 3.7.2* Not sure what the point of sharing to Facebook is if it doesn't actually share the countdown. Disappointed ### 3/5 — Pretty good *2015-04-27, version 3.7.2* It excludes weekends and up to 2 holidays (free version) but the only thing is it doesn't add a badge to the icon so you have to go into the app o see how many days are left /: ### 2/5 — Won't let me add classes *2014-10-09, version 3.6.2* The app worked great during the 2013-2014 school year, but this year it won't let me enter in the class I have (create a schedule). I paid the 1.99 for the pro version and really wish I could get this app to work again like it did last year. Also, at my school days alternate, red days and white days, switching off every other day. So a "red Monday" occurs only once every two weeks before it come around again, same with white Monday's, red Tuesday's, white Tuesday's, etc... Wish there was a way to add that in. ### 4/5 — 😄 *2014-04-26, version 3.6.2* I like how this app can help you keep track of school related stuff! Great app! ### 4/5 — Hours *2013-09-24, version 3.6.2* What isn't so great is that you can't enter the time your school starts and finishes ( for example what time you start and finish school on Monday) so the countdown is very inaccurate which makes the app kind of useless. ### 3/5 — Ok *2013-03-12, version 3.6.2* The app is pretty good despite one problem... The free version needs more days off. You can only put up to 2 days off and you need the full version for more. Because of that you can only do a portion of a break so why bother? ### 2/5 — Needs some fixes *2012-11-28, version 3.6.2* This app is great but it won't let me set my time table 😢 It always says "your start time must be earlier than your end time", but in what world is 8:25am after 9:40am???!???. I would definitely give this app ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ if it worked properly. ### 2/5 — Update please! *2012-10-11, version 3.5.1* I enjoy the app, just wish that it was updated to the full iphone 5 screen ### 4/5 — Good but Could be More / Bueno pero Puede estar Más *2012-03-10, version 3.5.1* The app is a good school countdown app, but I think it needs to allow you to set half-days or late-starts. So the true amount of time you have until school ends is exactly correct. Este app es bueno para contar los días del fin del año de escuela, pero pienso que el app necesita te permitir tener media-días y días-tardes. Para el tiempo que tienes del fin de escuela es exactamente verdad. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — Exception days *2023-03-30, version 3.7.2* The app used to work years ago, but now, when I try to mark the exception days, I get kicked off the app. Any suggestions? ### 1/5 — Paid for pro but didn’t work. *2022-09-09, version 3.7.2* Please help or refund me. ### 1/5 — Not a good app at all *2022-08-10, version 3.7.2* I downloaded this app and then paid the fee to upgrade and the app did not upgrade. Paid the fee for nothing. Don’t get this app!! ### 1/5 — Pointless without payed version *2016-12-07, version 3.7.2* Not worth paying for imo ### 1/5 — TERRIBLE!!!!! *2014-01-24, version 3.6.2* I got the app and it said that we have 6 days of school left until Summer... Yeah... We don't! We haven't even gotten the 100th Day of School yet!! ### 1/5 — No good *2014-01-20, version 3.6.2* Only gives you two days of doesn't have a school start and end time setting creating huge differences also makes you pay for things that should be standard like days out of school ### 1/5 — Poor *2013-10-18, version 3.6.2* Only gives you 2 days off unless you buy the pro version. We have more than 2 days off until graduation. ### 1/5 — <3 *2012-07-21, version 3.5.1* :( poo ### 1/5 — Not Useful At All *2012-04-17, version 3.5.1* I'm sorry but the free version is simply a waste of time. The ONLY thing it let's you do is the countdown to either the start or the end of school, and even then it isn't useful because it's missing most of the features that make it accurate and is constantly reminding you to get the pro version. I downloaded this app for the timetable and you can't even use that without the pro version. To be honest, I can see the full version being pretty good because the features in the app are useful but seriously, don't even bother with the lite version. ### 1/5 — Bogus *2011-10-28, version 3.1.0* The countdown is not consistent. One day it may say 144 days left & the next day 161. Despite contacting customer support and taking screen shots to prove it, they told me I was wrong and the app is always right. Don't waste your time. ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Great. *2015-02-25, version 3.7.2* It doesn't include weekends like other apps do. Just school days. And you can add all the holidays off so it is an accurate countdown. ### 5/5 — Great app *2014-05-27, version 3.6.2* First off it does do time like 3:45 and second off it stops on weekend which is perfect it had my school time end to the t ### 5/5 — Love it *2012-10-26, version 3.5.1* I can rub this in my friends faces haha ### 5/5 — Awesom *2012-08-24, version 3.5.1* Get this app it's sooo awesom don't lissin to the poo people ### 5/5 — Yay *2012-08-15, version 3.5.1* I am soooo happy I found this app. I couldnt find any good (but free) school countdown apps. This, even without the paid version, is a great app. It counts days, hours, minutes, and seconds to both the beginning and end of school. I'm glad I found it :) ### 5/5 — Very good *2011-11-30* Excellent app, does exactly what I want. ### 5/5 — Very nice!! *2011-05-24, version 2.1.1* I love this app! I look at it all the time!!! ### 5/5 — Awesome *2011-05-12, version 2.1.1* Awesome!!! ### 5/5 — Hate it *2011-05-10, version 2.1.1* Hate it. Counts the seconds of every day. Not just from 9 to 3. Might be useful to someone so I gave it some stars. ### 5/5 — Great! *2011-04-04, version 2.1.1* I love this app! It does exactly what it says! It counts down the days until school gets out. My guess is the people who don't know how to read the countdown thinking there's only X amount of minutes or seconds left in there school year, don't do very well in school. Above all, this app is great! Wish the free version offered a tad more but it is amazing for what it offers for free! --- *Data collected daily from the US App Store and indexed by [AppsHunter](https://appshunter.io/).
