With "Timity" you have a great utility to calculate the elapsed time between an event in the past/future and your current time. Moreover, you can choose multiple dates and investigate the elapsed time between them. In addition, "Timity" allows you to add or subtract time intervals to/from any given date. For instance, consider the following scenario: You would like to go to the movies and you're still wondering about when to order a taxi to bring you back home. In this scenario you can simply open the "Time Calculator", select the exact date and time when the show is starting, and put in the length of the movie you are going to see, e.g., 167 minutes. Timity will then calculate the exact time when the event, i.e., your cinema visit, is over. Features: • Compute the elapsed time between an event in the past/future and the current time • Compute the elapsed time between two given events • Add or subtract time intervals (years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes) to/from any given event • Determine sunrise and sunset for your current location

RepubliCal allows you to use the French Republican Calendar not just as a converter, but as what it was intended to be: a calendar! The app uses the original leap-day system (the only one which was ever legaly used during the French Revolution), meaning new years start on the fall equinox and leap days are calculated instead of having a rule. This means, unlike in the Gregorian Calendar, dates won't shift in relation to the seasons. Available dates and conversions range from 1792 to 2126 (years 1 to 334), after which calculation of equinoxes becomes less reliable. The app includes everything to have time-keeping be fully independent from the Gregorian calendar. It doesn't only display the current date, but also allows you to: - Visualize the year and actively interact with the Republican months. Scroll through the years and months to your heart's content! - Check and convert dates within the 334 year range. See what your Republican birthday is! - Create and delete reminders for specific dates. Got a picnic in a week? You'll get a notification in 10 days! - Have handy widgets to show the Republican date in both your lockscreen and homescreen - See the daily celebrations that have been assigned to each date. It includes an option to display Gregorian equivalents as well, for those who want to see both systems. Although years were normally displayed using roman numerals, you can change the way they are displayed with a simple tap.
