Choose how it's displayed — hours, days, weeks, or percentage — whatever makes the most sense to you. → Goals for every horizon Set goals for today, this week, this month, or this year, and watch your progress build as you check them off. → Count down to what matters Add upcoming events — birthdays, deadlines, trips — and see exactly how long until each one arrives. → Widgets that keep time in view Add time-remaining, goal-progress, and quotes widgets to your home screen as well as time-remaining widgets to your lock screen, so you stay aware without opening the app. → Make it yours Choose from several themes and accent colors, and customize how time is displayed across every view. → A moment of perspective Open the app to a rotating collection of quotes about time, mindfulness, and making the most of what you have. → Do more with Pro Unlock unlimited goals and events, all widgets, themes, and app icons, and advanced settings.
