Simple Countdown Widget App vs Anticipāt

Simple Count is the easiest way to count down to the moments you're looking forward to most — vacations, birthdays, weddings, concerts, holidays, and everything in between. Every widget is free — Home Screen, Lock Screen, Dynamic Island and Apple Watch. No subscription, ever. COUNT DOWN TOGETHER Share a countdown with the people you're counting down with and it stays linked: when anyone changes the date, the photo or the note, it updates on everyone's phone, widgets included. You can also share any event as a beautifully designed card, or select several countdowns and share them all at once. Add a photo, choose an emoji, and bring your countdowns to life with beautiful widgets on your Home Screen. Every time you unlock your phone, you'll see exactly what you're excited about next. FEATURES • Every widget free — no ads, no subscription • Beautiful Home Screen widgets in multiple sizes, including a full-page widget on iOS 27 • Lock Screen widgets and Live Activities with Dynamic Island support • Apple Watch — your countdowns on your watch face, in the Smart Stack and in their own watch app • Notifications on the day of your event • Celebrate past events instead of hiding them away • Available in 12 languages, switch anytime in Settings • No account required — your countdowns stay on your device and in your own iCloud, and we never see them, even the ones you share • iPhone and iPad sync — your countdowns, notes and reminders stay the same on all your devices, and come back if you reinstall the app • Repeating events — daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, or custom patterns like "the 3rd Sunday of each month" • Countdown reminders — days, hours, or minutes before each event • Notes with sections and checklists — keep tickets, addresses and packing lists right with the countdown; shared countdowns share them too • Search — find any countdown by name, note, or emoji (use the same emoji as a tag to group events) • Siri — say "Add a countdown in Simple Count" and just tell it what's coming, or ask how many days are left • Import from Calendar — events you have already planned become countdowns, repeating ones included • Count Down Together — shared countdowns that update for everyone. Share one for free; Simple Count Pro lets you share as many as you like at once. Joining is always free. • Photo backgrounds, and photos and files in your notes — Simple Count Pro, a one-time purchase. Whether you're counting down to your dream vacation, a special celebration, or your best friend's birthday, Simple Count keeps the excitement alive every day.

Anticipāt counts down to the days you're looking forward to. Add a trip, a concert, a birthday, or anything else worth the wait, and watch the days fall away on your Home Screen, your Lock Screen, and in the Dynamic Island as the moment gets close. It's free. There are no ads, no subscription, and no account to create. NEW IN THIS VERSION Anticipāt has been redrawn. Your photo now gets the whole frame, with the countdown set below it on paper instead of printed on top of someone's holiday picture. Events sit in a ruled register you can scan at a glance, and there are five themes to print it all on, from cream paper to true black. WHAT YOU CAN DO • Count down to trips, concerts, birthdays, holidays, or anything you like. • Put a countdown on your Home Screen and Lock Screen with widgets that update on their own. • See your next event on your Apple Watch with a watch-face complication. • Watch the final hours tick down by the minute, with a Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown on iPhones that support it. • Pick from five themes, and set a font and a colour on any single event. • Add a photo from your library or search free photos from Unsplash, then frame it exactly how you want it. • Get a reminder 30 days, 7 days and 1 day before, plus the day itself, and turn them off per event. • Share a countdown as a card for your group chat or your story, or copy a link a friend can open to add the same event. • Ask Siri how many days until something, or to add a countdown. • Keep birthdays and holidays recurring year after year, add notes, and import dates from your calendar. • Look back at your year with a shareable recap every December. YOUR EVENTS STAY YOURS Anticipāt works fully offline and stores nothing on our servers. Your events ride your device's normal iCloud backup, and you can export a file at any time. Turn on iCloud Sync and they keep in step across your own iPhone and iPad through your own iCloud, with no account to create. Photo search and calendar import use the network when it's there and step aside quietly when it isn't. Part of the Āpex Suite by HYTimes App Studio. Pay once, own forever. No subscriptions.
