The large one lists your next four events. - Lock Screen circular, rectangular and inline. - They show the event, the emoji and the days left, in the colour you picked. That should not be a selling point. In this category it is. FREE, FOREVER - As many countdowns as you want - A colour and an emoji for every one - Repeating events for birthdays and anniversaries, which roll to next year on their own - A notification on the day - Sort by date or drag them into the order you want - Edit or delete any countdown, any time - Everything stays on your device.
