About

Til.

Features
Read full description

Til. is a beautifully minimal countdown app that tells you the days until - or since - the moments that matter. Add a birthday, anniversary, trip, or deadline. Get an answer at a glance from your home screen, lock screen, or inside the app. Never miss a moment, never get caught off guard. Til. finds birthdays and calendar dates for you to review, then turns the ones you choose into calm, beautiful countdowns. Nothing is uploaded, and Til. never asks for Contacts or Calendar access until you open Smart Import and tap to begin. - COUNT DOWN TO WHAT MATTERS Track birthdays, anniversaries, trips, deadlines and the moments you are waiting for. Pin what matters most, organize events into folders and keep every date close with Home Screen widgets. - COUNT IT YOUR WAY A date can feel different depending on how you count it. See days, sleeps, weeks, months, working days or weekends. Each event can use the unit that makes sense for it. - GET THERE READY Add a simple plan to any event. Keep tasks, notes, links and reminders beside the countdown so the number becomes something you can act on. Start from a template or make the plan your own. - SHARE PRIVATELY Send a countdown as a private link or QR code, or create a designed Card, Story or Square image. Shared links carry only the event title, date, type, icon and repeat setting—never photos, notes, plans or reminders. - PRIVATE BY DESIGN No accounts. No ads. No Til. servers. Your events stay on your device unless you choose optional Pro sync through your own iCloud or Google Drive account. Til. contains no analytics or tracking SDKs. - TIL. PRO Use every display unit, import beyond the free event limit, create larger plans, apply templates, design share cards, unlock every theme and widget, and keep devices in sync through your own cloud account. - NO ADS, EVER Til. doesn't show ads, sell your data, or use dark patterns. We make a great app, you pay if you want more, and that's the whole deal. Terms of Use (EULA): https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/
