Shadowfetch
Read full descriptionHide full description
Shadowfetch keeps important dates visible, whether you are counting down to something ahead or counting up from something that already happened. Add a birthday, anniversary, trip, launch, deadline, ceremony, or personal streak. Shadowfetch sorts it, counts it live, helps you protect it with reminders, and gives you clean exports when you need a backup or handoff. Core features: - Count down to future dates with live days, hours, minutes, seconds, and milliseconds - Count up from past dates for anniversaries, sobriety streaks, product launches, and milestones - Pin a priority event so it leads the home screen and widget - See a Countdown Progress bar showing how far through the wait you are - Organize events by category: Birthday, Anniversary, Travel, Health, Deadline, Celebration, Milestone, Sports, Holiday, or Other - Create one-time, yearly, or monthly countdowns - Choose all-day dates or exact times - Use absolute time zones or local wall time - Schedule local reminder alerts before important events - Enable milestone notifications for notable countdown moments - Personalize events with a color or background photo - Keep a priority countdown visible with home screen and lock screen widgets - Share polished countdown or elapsed-time cards - Export all events as a spreadsheet-ready CSV - Share an Event Health Report summarizing reminders, pinned items, recurrence, categories, photos, stale records, and upcoming dates Shadowfetch is local-first. It does not require an account, does not include analytics or tracking, and does not upload your event data to a Shadowfetch-operated server. MOMENTS (NEW IN 1.7) Every other countdown app dies at zero - Shadowfetch makes zero the whole point. Events glow TODAY when the day arrives, erupt into confetti in their own color at the exact moment, and then retire to a Memories shelf that keeps the story alive: "127 days ago." One tap turns a finished moment into a count-up ("days since our wedding") or a yearly tradition. Anticipation, celebration, memory - all offline, all yours.

Work. Chores. Sleep. Then the same day begins again. There was a time when I thought this might continue forever. One night, I stayed up late throwing darts by myself. It was not productive. It did not immediately change my future. But that time had not been assigned to me by anyone else. It was time I had chosen for myself. Kizami is an app for digging out and keeping the time you chose from within everyday life. The time you spent reading. The time you walked a little farther. The time you ate something you loved. The time you did nothing and rested. The time you became absorbed in something on your own. It does not have to be impressive. It does not have to be useful for your future. If you chose it, it was your time. The time you record accumulates as a single mine shaft extending underground. As you dig deeper, your depth is compared with buildings, mountains, ocean depths, the Earth, and distances through space. Kizami has no streaks to maintain and no system that judges whether you achieved a goal. It is okay to miss a day. It is okay if the time was short. There was a moment in your day that you chose for yourself. Kizami is a place to keep those moments, one by one. Kizami is a small app created and maintained by one independent developer. If it becomes meaningful to you, I would be grateful if you supported it with a review. Your words give me the strength to keep building it.
