Some dates deserve more than a calendar entry. Countdown turns the moments you can't wait for into living, glowing timers with a proper celebration when they finally arrive. BACKGROUNDS THAT GET IT • The background matches your event: type "Ibiza Trip" and the app finds real imagery of the place, tinted by its live time of day. • Or pick any photo from your library. • Hand-tuned themes: Aurora, Sunset, Neon Noir, Midnight Gold and more. COUNT EVERY SECOND • Glowing progress ring with days, hours, minutes, seconds. • The last 10 seconds go full-screen cinematic with a haptic heartbeat. • Confetti storm and celebration screen at zero. • Anticipation stats: sleeps left, weekends left, how far you've come. EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK • Home screen widgets in three styles: Ring, Flip Clock, Minimal. • Live Activity in the Dynamic Island for the final 24 hours. • Ambient nightstand mode. • Notifications at the moment itself, plus halfway, 30-day, 1-week and 1-day milestones. SHARED MOMENTS • Share a countdown via iCloud and count down together. • See the moment across world time zones. • Finished countdowns become keepsakes: add photos, count the days since. QUICK TO ADD • Siri: "Add a countdown" • Import straight from your calendar • Paste any text, "flight to Lisbon Aug 14 6am" becomes a countdown. Free. No ads. No tracking. Your data stays yours.
