Read full description

Count Easy counts the days until the moments you're waiting for, and the days since the ones that changed things. No accounts. No subscriptions. No data collection. WHAT'S NEXT, FIRST Home leads with your next moment, like "12 days until Lisbon trip". For birthdays and other repeats, a thin bar shows how much of the wait since the last one is behind you. Below it: today's moments, everything coming up, and the counters counting up. ADD ONE IN A SENTENCE Type "Lisbon trip June 3", "Mom's birthday May 4" or "Quit coffee 2 weeks ago" and Count Easy reads the name, the date and whether it repeats. Or open the full form to pick the date, an icon or emoji, a color and a note. DAYS UNTIL AND DAYS SINCE Count down to trips, birthdays, weddings, launches and deadlines. Count up from the day you moved, started a job or quit something. On the day itself a countdown simply reads Today; the next day it starts counting the days since. REPEATS THAT KEEP THEIR DAY Repeat every day, week, two weeks, month or year. Birthdays come back every year, February 29 included in leap years, and monthly dates on the 31st land on each month's last day. RIGHT, WHEREVER YOU ARE Count Easy counts calendar days, so a countdown never shifts by a day when you travel across time zones or the clocks change. WIDGETS Small, medium and large Home Screen widgets and Lock Screen widgets show your next moment, or any countdown you pick. The medium and large sizes list what's up next. SHARE THE COUNTDOWN Send any countdown as a card for Stories, a feed post or a square post, or as a short video for Reels, TikTok and Shorts, where the days count down as the wait fills. In Paper, Ink or your countdown's own color. MAKE IT YOURS Light, Graphite or Black, and eight accents, each with its own app icon. PRIVACY FIRST Zero data collection. Zero tracking. Zero third-party code. Your countdowns stay on your device and are never transmitted anywhere. iCloud backup handles device transfers automatically.
