Countdown vs Lanely Countdown

Count down the days to every big moment: birthdays, trips, weddings, holidays, exams and due dates. Countdown shows each event live, down to the second, and puts it on your home screen with a widget. Live countdowns Days, hours, minutes and seconds, ticking live. Switch any event between days, weeks and hours with a tap. Home-screen widgets Put any countdown on your home screen: one event per widget, small, medium or large, in three styles. Each widget works out the days by itself. On iPhone, widgets need iOS 17 or later; there are Lock Screen widgets too. Days since Count up from a date to follow anniversaries, streaks and milestones in days, weeks or hours. Reached milestones are ticked off. Your own style Choose a colour gradient, a photo from the background packs or one of your own photos. Each countdown gets its category and its occasion art. Reminders Get a reminder 30, 7, 3 or 1 day before, on the day itself and at milestones. Yearly events roll over to next year on their own. Three views Cards, a compact list or a timeline of what is coming. Favourites, 16 categories, search and sorting keep everything tidy. Share the countdown Make a share card as a story, a square or a card. Send it to friends or save the image. Holidays Add the public holidays of the next 12 months for the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, Indonesia or India in one go. Full screen Show one big live countdown in full screen, or let the slideshow go through all your events.

Your countdowns stay on your phone, and a backup file keeps them safe, photos included. Also included • Dark mode • Phone and tablet layouts • 18 languages, chosen in Settings
