Tired of day counters that lock the widget behind a subscription, make you sign up, or bury your count under ads? Sinced is the simple one: no account, no ads, and widgets are free. Count how long it's been since you quit smoking or drinking, since you got together, or since your baby was born — or how long until a trip, a birthday or a deadline. WHAT YOU GET FOR FREE • Up to 5 counters, with Home Screen, Lock Screen and StandBy widgets — no Premium needed • No account to create. Your counters sync through your own iCloud across iPhone and iPad • No ads • Apple Watch app and complications COUNT IT YOUR WAY • Count up from a past date, or count down to a future one • Show days, weeks, months — or a full breakdown like "2 years 3 months 5 days" • "Count the start day": choose whether day one is day 0 or day 1, so your number matches the one in your head SLIPPED UP? YOUR HISTORY STAYS Streak counters for habits like smoke-free or alcohol-free days: reset when you need to, and every past run plus your best streak is kept in history. NEVER MISS THE MOMENT • Milestone celebrations at 7, 30, 100, 365 days — or pick your own • Elapsed alerts: get notified on day 1,000, day 50 or any day you choose — at 9:00, or at the hour you set MAKE IT YOURS • Emoji, colors, drag to reorder • Premium: put your own photo behind any counter and its widget, plus unlimited counters — a one-time purchase, not a subscription Available in English, Japanese, German, French, Spanish, Portuguese, Korean, Chinese and Hindi.
