Days Until: Countdown If you're anything like me, you may have tried to keep everything in your brain, at once. I created Days Until: Countdown because I wanted a tool where I can practice intentionality (e.g., pausing and inputting the dates that were important). View this app as a relationship with intentionality, to pause, breathe, and track the things important to you. It's helpful to see your countdowns in one clean vertical list. Built for everyday life and professional work: lawyers tracking filing dates, legal assistants watching response deadlines, office managers keeping team dates visible, students watching exams, and anyone who wants important dates out of their head and in one clear place. Use Days Until for: Legal and filing deadlines Bills, rent, and renewal dates School assignments and exams Office deadlines and follow-ups Trips and travel dates Birthdays and anniversaries Job applications Project milestones Appointments Anything coming up Why people choose Days Until: All upcoming dates in one clean vertical list Date-only or timed deadlines Color-code related countdowns Add notes for context Reorder your list manually Mark complete, restore, or duplicate in a tap Delete safely with confirmation No account required Your countdowns stay on your device Simple on purpose.

Countdown shows you exactly how long until the things you care about, or how long it's been since. Make one for a birthday, a trip, an anniversary, an exam, your last day at work, or just New Year. It sits on your Home Screen and your Lock Screen so you see it every time you pick up your phone. Every countdown is yours to customize. Pick an emoji, set a color or let it adapt to light and dark mode, drop in your own photo as the background, and tag it however you like. Set it as an all-day event or count down to the minute. Repeating events roll forward on their own, and the repeats are smart: "last Friday of the month" stays the last Friday instead of drifting to a fixed date. The widgets are the point for a lot of people. Single-event widgets come in four styles — a big number, a progress ring, a progress bar, or number tiles — for the Home Screen, plus circular, rectangular, and inline versions for the Lock Screen. Track several events at once with the medium and large widgets. Empty slots fill in with whatever's coming up next, and anything you pin jumps to the front. What you get: - Count down to a future date or up from a past one - Home Screen widgets in four styles, plus Lock Screen widgets - Your own photos as widget backgrounds - Smart repeats: daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, including patterns like "2nd Tuesday" that don't drift - Emoji, custom colors, and tags - Pin your favorites and reorder by hand - Reminders the day before, a week before, or when the day arrives - Choose which units you see, from years down to seconds - Count only the days that matter by skipping weekends or any weekday you pick - Sort by soonest, latest, name, or date added - Works in nine languages Everything stays on your device. No account, no sign-up, no servers, no tracking. The app is free, has no ads, and nothing is locked behind a purchase.
