Keep a countdown to a date, a timer to a date and time, or time since a day that mattered. One goal is included. Edit and delete from the Goal tab. Set a birthdate and Life draws every week as a dot, childhood through later decades on one calendar. Progressium is free. Other themes, large and Lock Screen widgets, the Goal widget, and extra goals are Progress Clock Premium, an optional monthly subscription. Purchases and cancellation go through your Apple ID. Birthdate, goals, and settings stay on your device. No account. No analytics.
