Countdown X vs HomeStretch Countdown

Countdown X is a simple, beautiful countdown app for the days that matter to you. Count down to birthdays, vacations, weddings, anniversaries, holidays, launches and deadlines, and see how many days are left at a glance on your Home Screen, your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Count Down to Anything Create a countdown in seconds: pick a date and time or make it all-day, choose its colors and style, and add notes. Set events to repeat every day, week, two weeks, month or year, so birthdays and anniversaries roll over on their own. Start from a template to count down to the end of the year, season or month in one tap. See Your Progress Show the time remaining or the percentage of progress, and set a start date to measure progress from any moment you like. Use Excluded Days to skip the weekdays that don't count, like weekends, and see only the workdays left until a deadline. Widgets and Live Countdown Keep your countdowns in view with Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and tap any widget to open its event. Turn on Live Countdown to follow an event's final 8 hours on the Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island, perfect for a flight, a launch or the start of a party. Reminders Get a reminder the moment your countdown reaches zero, and turn reminders on or off for each event. Reminders are free for everyone. Organize Your Events See which event is next on one clean dashboard and filter your events by Upcoming, Today, This Week, This Month, Later or Past. Duplicate any event in one tap, copy an event's colors and style and paste them onto another countdown, and blur a title to keep a surprise private. Share the Excitement Share any countdown as an image, sized for Instagram Stories, TikTok, feed posts and Messages, or save it to Photos. Works With Your iPhone Find your countdowns in Spotlight, create an event with Siri or Shortcuts, and add a new countdown in one tap from Control Center, the Lock Screen or the Action button. Import events from Calendar and Reminders, and keep everything in sync across your iPhone and iPad with iCloud. Countdown X Premium Countdown X is free with up to three events.

The part of the day you actually watch the clock for is the last one. HomeStretch puts that part on your Lock Screen. Make a counter for whatever you are inside of — the school day, the shift, the workday, the workout, the fast — and say when it ends. That is the whole setup. When the end gets close, a Live Activity appears on its own, counts down, and goes away when you have made it. WHAT YOU GET • Six templates to start from: School day, Shift, Workday, Workout, Fast, or your own • Repeating counters on the weekdays you pick, one-off counters, and quick countdowns • Six countdown styles: digits, dots, bar, ring, an LED clock, and a sentence you write yourself • Six palettes, all readable on a bright screen • Dynamic Island, Home Screen and Lock Screen widgets, and wherever iOS mirrors Live Activities: Apple Watch Smart Stack and StandBy • A notification when the home stretch starts, and one when it is over • Dynamic Type and VoiceOver throughout ONE HONEST LIMIT iOS ends every Live Activity after eight hours, so a home stretch is at most 7 hours 45 minutes long. If the end is days away, a widget carries the countdown until then and the Lock Screen takes over by itself when the home stretch begins. There are no background tricks here: HomeStretch does not run while you are not looking, and it does not need to. HOMESTRETCH PRO Free gives you one counter, the digits and dots styles, three palettes and one widget configuration — enough for the one thing you count down every day. HomeStretch Pro adds: • Unlimited counters • All six styles, including bar, ring, sentence and the LED clock • All six palettes • Your own sentence templates around the countdown • Siri Shortcuts and a Control Center button • Quick countdowns straight from Shortcuts • End a countdown with an alarm that rings through Silent mode and Focus Three plans: Yearly and Monthly are auto-renewing subscriptions — Yearly opens with a 7-day free trial — and Lifetime is a single purchase, not a subscription. The price in your own currency is shown before you buy, and you can restore a purchase on any of your devices. PRIVACY No account, no sign-in, no ads, no analytics beyond purchases. Your counters and your history stay on your device. Notifications are scheduled locally — there is no push and no server of ours.
