Some days you are waiting for. Others you count because you got through them. Time Glass holds both. Set a countdown to the trip you already booked, the wedding you are planning, the exam you are dreading. Or turn it around and count up: days since you quit, since you moved, since the two of you met. Same app, opposite directions, and both are good to open. COUNT DOWN TO WHAT IS COMING Vacations, birthdays, weddings, concerts, due dates, launches, deadlines. Pick a date, pick a background, and the number is waiting for you every time you open the app. COUNT UP FROM WHERE YOU STARTED Days without a cigarette. Days at the new job. Days since day one with someone. A count-up timer only goes up, which is the whole point. ADD UP ONLY THE DAYS THAT COUNT This is the part no other timer app does. An accumulative timer adds the date ranges you choose and ignores the rest. - Days of physical presence in a country, for a residency or citizenship application - Days actually worked on a project, with weekends left out - Days of treatment, training or a program, with the breaks removed Add a range for each period, leave the last one open until today, and the total recalculates itself. The gaps between ranges, like a trip, do not count. RECURRING REMINDERS Daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or the last day of every month. Mark each one done or skipped, read the history, and attach a photo or a file so what you need is right there when the reminder arrives. WORTH LEAVING ON SCREEN - 46 backgrounds, 32 of them free - 30 of them animated: snowfall, spring, mountain trains, ocean depths, birthday confetti and more - Three card styles: Minimal, Balloons, Floating - 10 app themes - An emoji on every timer - Work-day mode counts Monday to Friday only YOURS AND ONLY YOURS Everything is stored on your device. No account, no sign up, no server. It all works with the phone in airplane mode. FREE, WITH AN OPTIONAL PREMIUM Three timers are free forever. More timers, every animated background and no ads come with Premium, or with diamonds you earn inside the app. Time Glass is for anyone who has ever done that math in their head. Now you do not have to. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/ Privacy Policy: https://www.wonderful-apps.com/app/time-glass
