My Countdowns
Read full descriptionHide full description
MyCountdowns keeps the moments you care about in one place—birthdays, holidays, trips, deadlines, appointments, and more—with live countdowns that update as time passes. A clean list and a monthly calendar make it easy to see what’s next or browse what’s already passed. Key features • Live countdowns with flexible time units (years through seconds)—you choose what to show. • List + calendar views so you can scan everything or focus on a day. • Sort by date, title, type, or colour; filter for upcoming or past events. • Search by title or notes when your list grows. • Colour-coded events and types (e.g. birthday, holiday, deadline, appointment) so patterns pop at a glance. • Collections to group events the way you work and live. • Alerts you can tune: optional days, hours, and minutes before the event, plus distinct alert sounds (chimes and horns—pick what fits the moment). • Notes on events for gifts, travel details, or last-minute reminders. Additional polish • Light, dark, or system appearance. • Haptics and sound toggles for feedback while using the app. • Built-in How To tips so new users get productive fast. Free Everything above is included with MyCountdowns: unlimited-style use of core countdown, calendar, organisation, customisation, and in-app alert sound options—no paywall in the app today. Premium None. There is no separate Premium subscription or in-app purchase in this version; you get the full feature set as described.
