Stop doing time math. When you need a countdown to end at a specific time, simply enter that time and let OCD Countdown calculate the duration automatically. Set a time, not a duration. Create multiple countdowns for cooking, meetings, workouts, breaks, departures, and everything else happening in your day. Each countdown stays easy to identify and track, so you always know what’s next. Choose an hour from 1–12, enter the minutes, and start your countdown. AM or PM is suggested for the next occurrence of your chosen time, and you can change it whenever needed. Keep track with Live Activities on supported iPhones, system alarms, optional spoken updates, and customizable sounds. Mute spoken alerts without moving your target time, or clear your countdowns when you are finished. An Apple Watch app lets you create and track countdowns on your wrist. Optional OCD Plus subscription: eligible new subscribers receive one month free, then the subscription renews annually at the price shown by the App Store. Manage or cancel in your Apple account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
