Stop doing time math. When you need a countdown to end at a specific time, simply enter that time and let OCD Countdown calculate the duration automatically. Set a time, not a duration. Create multiple countdowns for cooking, meetings, workouts, breaks, departures, and everything else happening in your day. Each countdown stays easy to identify and track, so you always know what’s next. Choose an hour from 1–12, enter the minutes, and start your countdown. AM or PM is suggested for the next occurrence of your chosen time, and you can change it whenever needed. Keep track with Live Activities on supported iPhones, system alarms, optional spoken updates, and customizable sounds. Mute spoken alerts without moving your target time, or clear your countdowns when you are finished. An Apple Watch app lets you create and track countdowns on your wrist. Optional OCD Plus subscription: eligible new subscribers receive one month free, then the subscription renews annually at the price shown by the App Store. Manage or cancel in your Apple account settings. Terms of Use: https://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/dev/stdeula/

Most goal trackers show you what you did. Wayve shows you whether it is actually working. Set a goal, choose a deadline, and log your progress. Wayve calculates your required pace, compares it with your current pace, and tells you whether you are on track to reach your target in time. No streak pressure. No fake motivation. No guessing. Wayve is built for people who want an honest view of their goals before it is too late to adjust. TRACK GOALS WITH REAL DEADLINES A goal without a deadline is easy to ignore. Wayve turns your goal into a clear target with a defined time frame, so your progress is measurable from day one. SEE IF YOU ARE ON PACE Wayve does more than log your entries. It shows whether your current progress is enough to reach your goal by the deadline. UNDERSTAND YOUR PROGRESS See your target, your current pace, your required pace, and your projected outcome in one place. Know when you are ahead, behind, or drifting off course. BUILT FOR CLARITY, NOT STREAKS Wayve is not a habit tracker trying to reward you for showing up. It is a goal tracker that helps you understand whether your effort is actually moving you toward the result you want. REFLECT AND IMPROVE At the end of a goal cycle, Wayve surfaces what actually happened, so you can learn from it and start the next cycle with better insight. Whether you are working on fitness, finances, learning, content creation, or personal growth, Wayve helps you answer the one question that matters: Am I getting closer?
