Byna
Read full descriptionHide full description
Byna โ Dutch for "almost". Byna is a quiet countdown for the moments you're looking forward to. No clutter, no notifications shouting for attention, no extra screen time. One photo, one number, and the warm feeling of anticipation. โข Count down to a holiday, a birthday, a reunion โ or any moment at all. โข Choose your own photo, or let Byna pick a beautiful colour for you. โข Add a widget to your Home Screen and Lock Screen, so "almost there" stays in view. โข Get one gentle nudge, right when the moment arrives. Not before, not more than once. โข Share your countdown with a link โ no app install needed for the person you send it to. Byna doesn't need an account and keeps your moments right on your device. Share a countdown, and the photo disappears on its own once the moment has passed. Small app. Big moment.
