About

Until

Read full description

Until is a countdown app that does one thing exceptionally well. Create a countdown to anything: a birthday, a trip, a wedding, a premiere, an exam, a personal goal. Open the app and instantly see the thing you are waiting for, huge and beautiful, counting down in real time. WHAT MAKES UNTIL SPECIAL Sky, the living theme. The background drifts through sunrise, daylight, sunset and night, following your day. Or pick a curated color theme, or use your own photo, gently dimmed behind the numbers. The display adapts. Years become months, months become days, and the final hour becomes a ticking clock. Tap the number to switch between automatic, total days, or total hours. Some people just want to watch 100 hours counting down. Celebrations. When zero arrives, the screen blooms into a short message that feels like an achievement, with a sound you chose. Pick from gentle chimes, triumphant fanfares, insistent alarms, or import your own sound. It follows you. A Live Activity keeps your countdown ticking in the Dynamic Island and on the Lock Screen. A notification rings the moment it ends, even when the app is closed. Timers too. Count down a duration instead of a date: two hours, one hundred hours, sixty seconds. Pause, stop, and start over. SIMPLE ON PURPOSE No accounts. No feeds. No clutter. No data collection at all. Swipe between countdowns, tap to rename, done. Try Until free for three days. One purchase of $1.99 unlocks it forever.
