I love this app so so much I first saw this app when I was looking for an app to tell me how long till my Disney trip so I downloaded it and would check it every day and tell my siblings and parents how long till Disney world and it was very very helpful! ### 1/5 — If you like your ads to be dick pics *2025-12-02, version 5.11* I’m not sure how they advertise porn when there are no age verification processes to access the app. All I wanted was a holiday, but I didn’t ask for dick pics across the bottom of the screen. Zero stars-do not recommend. ### 5/5 — Great App! *2025-10-26, version 5.11* This app is great for exciting, fun vacations. It really brings anticipation to your countdown, and I love the quote of the day things! I recommend using this app with notifications, so when your getting close, you get to know how long you have in weeks! ### 5/5 — Love it *2025-09-07, version 5.10* I look at it everyday, I get so excited as my vacation nears. ### 5/5 — I love it 💋💋💞❤️ *2025-08-18, version 5.9* When I got this app it was brill and it is not confusing one bit I love it xx ### 5/5 — Amazing app! *2025-08-16, version 5.8* This app is so simple to use! I love this app even for classic countdowns not just for holidays, the app has no pop up adds constantly which makes the app efficient for users to work with. Overall this app is definitely 100% better than any other vacation count down apps! ### 5/5 — Love the spontaneity of the quotes *2025-08-07, version 5.8* The Quotes are a little breath of fresh air as you countdown your upcoming freedom! ### 4/5 — Amazing *2025-08-05, version 5.7* AMAZING I am SO forgetful sometimes so this is very helpful 😂😅. But I don’t like when it only updates when you set it up though 😔 it is a great app to get I recommend getting it if you’re going on holiday. ## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated) ### 1/5 — No Way Out *2026-07-20, version 5.17* Used to like this app but heaven forbid you accidentally click on any other icon in the app you are forced to look at games you don’t want or need with no way to get out and back to the actual countdown page. I wouldn’t recommend this for that reason ### 1/5 — Adverts annoying *2026-07-19, version 5.17* Didn’t even get as far as putting a date in when I got a full screen noisy unskippable advert for a gem popper type game. Quit and deleted ### 1/5 — No WIDGET *2026-07-07, version 5.16* Bad so many ads ### 1/5 — Scam *2026-06-16, version 5.16* Paid for no ads and full access to all of the photos. Turns out I still have ads and don’t have full access. It’s a giant scam! ### 1/5 — ANNOYING ADS! *2026-05-06, version 5.16* This app isn't worth having! Annoying ads after entering each setting. DELETED! ### 1/5 — Clickbait ads before you continue *2026-03-10, version 5.12* It’s terrible. Ads show up after any click and you sit there and wait. Or are forced to the ad when you can’t leave that page. Do not recommend one bit! ### 1/5 — Rubbish *2026-03-09, version 5.12* Hadn’t even got to load where I was going and an add popped up, then I went to select the country picture and it was charging $3.99 what a joke. Deleted it straight away. ### 1/5 — Ads *2026-03-08, version 5.12* In the past this app was great. Now it’s a constant long playing ad. ### 1/5 — Spam associated *2026-02-10, version 5.12* I continually get spam associated with this app asking for my apple info related to a $ charge to my account ### 1/5 — Poor! *2026-01-16, version 5.11* Paid for the app & can’t even see the countdown because of the games/ads ## Most praised reviews (10 highest-rated) ### 5/5 — Holiday *2026-08-23, version 5.19* This is amazing I’ve used it every day until I went on holiday and I was so happy this is so good I love it ### 5/5 — Good simple as that *2026-07-07, version 5.16* Good simple as that ### 5/5 — Great app *2026-06-12, version 5.16* I was searching and searching for a good app to count my vacations been using this one since 2023 because it is great it works good packing lists quotes games doesn’t glitch ### 5/5 — Kamille *2026-06-04, version 5.16* This app gets you so excited for vacation while still being super helpful and on point with how many days until your vacation.
