ReceptionRating · Positive reviews · Number of ratings

Countdown Widgets holds the better App Store score, 4.5 against 3.8. That said, the two scores are not equally well evidenced: Countdown Widgets has 44 ratings behind it against 6, so its average is the more settled of the two. Written reviews complicate that: 100% of Events Countdown Tracker's written reviews are positive against 90% of Countdown Widgets's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.

UpkeepUpdate frequency

Events Countdown Tracker ships an update every 4 months, Countdown Widgets monthly. The most recent releases landed on September 10, 2026 and August 19, 2026 respectively.
