The day you're waiting for, always in sight. Days Until puts a countdown to your trip, anniversary, birthday, wedding or exam right on your iPhone Home Screen. It takes about a minute to make one. BIG NUMBERS, EASY TO READ • Choose how the number is laid out: Standard, Big number, Minimal, Vertical, Ring, Bar, Daily dots or Split digits. • Eleven typefaces for the numbers, from rounded and serif to marker, pixel and handwritten. • Fifteen patterns, including grid, dots, stripes, checks and traditional Japanese motifs like seigaiha and asanoha. • Set the background, text and number colors separately. Use a photo as the background and adjust blur, dimming and black-and-white. • Pick a scene to change everything at once: cherry blossoms, summer sea, autumn leaves, snow, Christmas, baby and more. ON YOUR HOME SCREEN, EVERY DAY • Home Screen widgets count down by themselves. No need to open the app. • Square and wide sizes. Add as many as you like. • On the day itself, the Lock Screen counts down to the hour, minute and second. • Also shows while your iPhone charges on its side, in Control Center, and on Apple Watch. TIDY, EVEN WITH MANY • Sort countdowns into folders and switch between them from the list. • Search by title. • Show the days to your next event on the app icon (or turn it off). COUNT YOUR WAY • Days, Auto, Years/months/days, Weeks, Workdays, Hours or Minutes. • Repeats weekly, monthly or yearly. Birthdays and anniversaries roll over to next year on their own. • Count up, too: "it's been 100 days". Get notified at milestones like 100 days and one year. • Reminders 3 days before, the day before and on the day, set per countdown. YOUR DATA STAYS YOURS • Syncs with iCloud, so it moves with you to a new iPhone. • Your countdowns are stored only on your device and in your own iCloud. Nothing is sent to our servers. PRICING • You can make up to 2 countdowns. • Twelve colors, two layouts, two typefaces and three scenes are included. • Photo backgrounds, gradients, patterns and the other typefaces are part of Pro. You can try them on and see the result before saving. • Days Until Pro unlocks unlimited countdowns and every design. One-time purchase, no subscription.
