## What is Time Counter?

Time does fly like an arrow. Time Counter tells you how much time has passed since such and such, or how much time there is until such and such, with units and events edited at your will. “Such and such” can be your birthday and birth time, to find how many seconds you have lived so far, or an important must-do schedule, or any event you may be looking forward to. This app will give your time a new meaning.

- There will be two event examples in the list, to start with. 
- Tap the event item to change units, to months, hours, minutes, and so on. 

- Swipe the event item to the right for full-screen view.
- Tap the number in the center of full-screen view to change units. The list view will change accordingly.
- You can lock the full-screen view by tapping the upper-left button. It disables the auto-lock feature of the device. 
- Swipe the full-screen view to the left to return to list view.

- Swipe the event item to the left to display event settings. Here, you can set the title, date, time, color, and reminder. 
- Reminder will alert you by flashing the item at a specified time. A notification message will appear if you are not using the application (You must enable notifications in the "Settings" app). Cancel reminder by tapping the switch to OFF in the event settings view.
- From the event settings view, swipe right to return to list view.

- Long press the list view to change to list editing mode.
- In the list editing mode, you can add, delete, and change order of events. To create a new event, swipe "ADD" item to the left.
- In the list editing mode, you can sort items by title, date, time, units displayed in thumbnail, and color.
- Long press to cancel list editing mode.

- In the list editing mode, tap the left button in the tool bar to display app settings panel. Here, you can set iCloud Sync, color of event title, thumbnail animation, and display of user guide.

### 3/5 — Widget Please

*2020-10-01, version 2.2*

(Update: Please add a widget feature!) 

App almost does almost everything that I need it to do.

### 4/5 — Needs work days

*2019-10-23, version 2.2*

Works fine but needs to be able to count work days

### 2/5 — Was my favorite, when supported

*2019-05-28, version 2.2*

This was one of the best and easiest to use countdown apps.  But the developer routinely abandons it.  Took a few years to add support for the plus size screen. Now we are waiting for support of the notched screens.  Last update was 3 years ago.  Hello Developer, we are do for a little update.

### 5/5 — More, more

*2018-05-03, version 2.2*

I would like to group timers. I would like to have a group for historic event, a group for personal event, group for goals, a group for personal current activities, particularly I would like to keep track of how long it will be until I am on stage again. A connection to calandra items would be great! I would also like to have more control over the format like just days and hours or just hours and minutes etc. Thanks for the app, this is the best thing I have found so far to putting in a date and time and then seeing a count down and up. Your orient app look cool are you going to fix it for iOS 11?

### 5/5 — Really helpful app

*2018-03-22, version 2.2*

I’ve been using this app for years now. It quietly does exactly what I need it to...it lets me know how long it has been since this or that happened. Don’t underrate this simple app.

### 2/5 — Update

*2017-12-24, version 2.2*

Please update this app to iPhone X.

### 5/5 — Still good

*2017-03-13, version 2.2*

Defaulted not to show dates stored in the cloud on update, but came back very quickly. Useful app.

### 5/5 — Awesome app!

*2016-12-26, version 2.2*

Counts to and from dates. Exactly what I wanted. Beautiful and easy interface.

### 5/5 — Good app

*2016-01-14, version 2.2*

Very useful.

### 5/5 — Worth paying for!

*2015-12-26, version 2.2*

I should've reviewed this app sooner! It's always been great to me, I love it and don't know how I'd be able to count down the months, days, hours and seconds to the exact date I want without it! I forget how much I paid for it but it was worth the risk buying it did not disappoint and the developer has been updating it for quite a while now! Thank you dev! :)
