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. Day Counter & Countdown sells 1 one-off in-app purchase and Countdown sells 5 in-app purchases, starting at $3.99 per month. Whichever you choose, the download price is not the number that matters.
Countdown holds the better App Store score, 4.8 against 4.6. Both are backed by a comparable volume of ratings — 71 and 118 respectively. Written reviews complicate that: 70% of Day Counter & Countdown's written reviews are positive against 57% of Countdown's, so the app with the better star average is not the one people write more warmly about.
Day Counter & Countdown ships an update every 5 days, Countdown every 2 weeks. The most recent releases landed on October 24, 2026 and October 25, 2026 respectively.
