Time off

Adding vacation hours does not decrease the hours left to work

Inaccurate Days

One week it read 96 days, a week later it read 106 days. Please fix.

Incorrect time

Last week I had 96 days, today I have 109. Doesn’t make sense. It’s not the first time I see this inconsistency. Bummer, I was enjoying the app.

Great retirement countdown app!

I love everything about this app. Much more interactive than any of the other retirement countdown apps I’ve tried. Only problem is the vacation quantity doesn’t update in the workdays left option. Great app!!

Vacation days not reflected

This app is not very useful if it doesn’t calculate my work days remaining to include subtracting vacation days. Unsure how to get those vacation days subtracted because hard closing the app then reopening it doesn’t work. At this time, a spreadsheet works better than this app.

Lost hours and min

Lost the hours and minutes portion after install again. Don’t want just the days.

Work Time Countdown Doesn’t Countdown

Even after upgrading to the Premium version, my Work Time countdown still doesn’t work? Any suggestions?

Not great

Vacation days setting doesn’t work

Awful, even after going to Premium

Approximately 1 1/2 years to retirement, and picked this countdown app. Only a few backgrounds, and ads. Purchased the Premium upgrade. No additional backgrounds, ads still showing, tried the link to ask the developers question about that. Even that link did not work. What a ripoff. For the first time ever, requested a refund from Apple.

US biased

Just what I was looking for - a countdown of working days to my retirement - but a bit disappointed. Date format is US only (my/dd/yyyy) making it trickier to enter UK dates, plus it has US holidays by default only. Adding UK holidays is manual and if you fall foul of the mm/dd format, they don’t move up/down in the holiday list when corrected. I now have Easter in between Sep & Nov - and can only delete/re enter to correct that.
Then there’s a great field for ‘vacation hours’ … but it doesn’t tell you whether that’s your annual allowance or the total till your chosen end date.
Finally the fee to unlock ‘premium’ features seems extremely high. Deleted, sadly.

Could do better

No background if don’t pay 🤬

Calculations are not correct

I have today (Friday) set as an added holiday because it’s a personal day. Yesterday the calculations were correct. But today when I opened the app, it treated today like a work day. I force-closed the app and re-installed it, and the app now displayed it as a non-work day in that the the hours/mins/secs were zero, but days count was one day lower than it should have been.

I like it

I do like that I we could add in more holidays. I just wish we could click daylight savings time to accurately reflect the time left

Vacation days

My vacation days are not being deducted from total working days.

GREAT Apple

Love it 😊 the only thing is sometimes the time lock screws up. You tried to straighten it out reload the app then I want to charge you again for no ads get it right guys.

Inconsistent remaining days

Handy settings to add your vacation hours and holidays between now and retirement to see how many actual work days are left. However, these settings often don’t work, so remaining days appear much higher sometimes - no rhyme or reason, no link to report this issue. Frustrating. I’m considering searching for a different app.

Stopped working

I had this app and really liked it however it stopped working and I couldn’t get it working again.

Vacation hours not deducted consistently.

Please fix the bug that doesn’t subtract vacation hours. This is inaccurate. Sometimes, vacation is subtracted and other times not.

Update: problem fixed! Thank you.

Response from developer

You actually pinpointed the exact issue that a few issues were having. It should be fixed now! Thanks for brining this to me, and if you're still with us, I appreciate your patience.

My favorite app

Great and easy to use!

Don’t waste your time.

Number of days left are constantly changing back and forth. Other time days won’t change based on vacation times changes.
