Nigh counts down to the moments you're waiting for, on your Home Screen, your Lock Screen, and in the app. COUNTDOWNS THAT KEEP GOING Most countdown apps stop when the day arrives. Nigh handles the things that come around again: • Paydays every other Friday, rent on the 1st, trash day every Tuesday • Birthdays and anniversaries every year • Cycles made of phases, like a menstrual cycle or a 21/7 pill pack, with "3 days until the next phase" and a day-by-day ring When one passes, Nigh rolls over to the next, forever. MANY WAYS TO SEE IT Big number, progress bar, ring, fill, dots, weekends left, calendar, milestones, live timer, and phases. Show the count as days, weeks and days, months and days, hours, or "sleeps." WIDGETS FOR EVERYTHING Small, medium and large Home Screen widgets, plus Lock Screen widgets. Pick a different event and style for each one, and tap any widget to jump to its live countdown. REMINDERS YOUR WAY • Heads-up alerts like "Payday is tomorrow" before every occurrence • Milestones at 100 days, 30 days, 1 week and 1 day • Custom schedules: every Friday, the 1st and 15th, the third Friday of the month, and more • Preview any notification before you rely on it PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything you create stays on your iPhone. No account, no sign-up, no cloud. Nigh is free and supported by a small banner ad. There are no subscriptions and no in-app purchases, ever. Start from an example (Payday, Cycle, Pill Pack, Birthday, Vacation, Rent, Trash Day, Due Date) then change anything you like. Cycle and pill pack countdowns are estimates to help you plan. They aren't medical advice or a form of contraception.
