Count Easy is the countdown tracker built for people who want beautiful simplicity. No accounts. No subscriptions. No data collection. Just your important dates, beautifully displayed. TRACK WHAT MATTERS Create countdowns to future events — vacations, birthdays, weddings, deadlines, product launches, anything. Or track days since important milestones — sobriety dates, relationship anniversaries, habit streaks, career achievements. STUNNING WIDGETS Count Easy's widgets are the star feature. Add them to your home screen or lock screen to see your countdowns at a glance: • Small: One countdown with a big, bold number • Medium: Up to 3 countdowns side by side • Large: Calendar-style view with all your events • Lock Screen: Minimal countdown always visible ORGANIZE YOUR WAY Assign colors and icons to each countdown. Create categories to group related events. Set annual repeating for birthdays and anniversaries that come back every year. MAKE IT YOURS Choose from 8 vibrant accent colors for each countdown. Works beautifully in both light and dark mode. The interface stays out of your way so you can focus on what's coming up. PRIVACY FIRST Zero data collection. Zero tracking. Zero third-party code. Your countdowns are stored only on your device and are never transmitted anywhere. When you delete the app, your data is gone. Built with SwiftUI. No subscriptions. No ads. Just a great countdown tracker.

Until Then - Event Countdown is a clean, ad-free way to count down to the moments you're waiting for. • Create as many events as you like - birthdays, trips, anniversaries, deadlines - each with its own emoji, color and optional photo. See exactly how long is left, down to the second on the day itself. • Home Screen widgets in every size, plus Lock Screen widgets • Live Activity on the Lock Screen and Dynamic Island in the final hours • Custom reminders - as many as you want, from hours to months before • Yearly events that roll over automatically for birthdays & anniversaries • Optional iCloud sync across your iPhone and iPad * Share time left with others * Time zone aware or constant time - your choice * Count up from event, or continue to count after the event arrived * Siri & shortcuts integration No ads. No tracking. No accounts. No locked features. Everything stays on your device. I built it for myself because every other countdown app I tried was full of ads and paywalls. I'm sharing it in case it's useful to you too - free, clean, and it'll stay that way.
