Verdict
The clearest difference is review sentiment: Days Counter at 100% against Countdown with widget's 27%. Countdown with widget's advantage is ratings volume (2.1K vs 5) and rating (4.4 vs 4.2). On price, update cadence, ads and in-app purchases there is nothing between them.
Scored on Price · Rating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings · Update frequency · Ads · In-app purchases · Monetization · Best chart rank · Devices · Requires iOS
Both are free to download. Countdown with widget sells 8 in-app purchases, starting at $0.99 per 7 days and Days Counter sells 3 in-app purchases, starting at $2.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Countdown with widget holds the better App Store score, 4.4 against 4.2. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown with widget has 2.1K ratings behind it against 5, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 27% of Countdown with widget's written reviews are positive against 100% of Days Counter's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Countdown with widget ships an update every 5 weeks, Days Counter every 2 months. The most recent releases landed on September 22, 2026 and June 5, 2026 respectively.
