Count calendar days — or only the days that count. Days Until is the countdown that can skip weekends, US federal holidays and your own days off, so you see the working days that actually remain until retirement, your last day, the end of school, or any date you choose. Or count every day — it's your call, per event. COUNT ONLY THE DAYS THAT COUNT (PRO) Some countdowns shouldn't include every day. With Pro, a one-time purchase: • Skip weekends — see remaining workdays, not calendar days • Skip US federal holidays, computed automatically every year • Add custom skip dates — company closures, vacations, anything • Reminders — get notified at milestones like "5 working days left," at the time you choose • Photo backgrounds — your own picture behind any countdown and its widget COUNT THE DAYS YOUR WAY (FREE) • Track as many events as you like • Show each countdown in years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes or seconds — whatever units you prefer • Give every event its own color and icon so it's recognizable at a glance • A detail screen with the big number, a progress bar, and calendar days vs. working days side by side • Home Screen widgets in three sizes and Lock Screen widgets — pick which countdown each one shows No subscriptions. No accounts. No ads. Your events stay on your device. Perfect for counting down to retirement, the last day of work, graduations, weddings, due dates, vacations, moves, product launches, PCS dates, and the end of anything you're ready to be done with.
