Count down to what's coming. Orbit turns the moments you're waiting for into beautiful home-screen widgets. Pick a date, choose a look, and watch it tick. MAKE IT UNMISTAKABLY YOURS Every element moves. Drag the number, the days label, the title, the date and the live countdown anywhere on the widget, then set the font, size and colour of each one independently. Three widget types to start from: Minimal, Ring and Line. A LIVE COUNTDOWN, TO THE SECOND Show the days remaining, or a full countdown ticking down hours, minutes and seconds right there on your home screen, updating on its own. BACKGROUNDS AND ICONS Solid colours, custom gradients you mix yourself, or one of your own photos. Twenty-two event icons, from rings and cakes to rockets and palm trees, or use any emoji as your icon. START FROM A TEMPLATE A gallery of ready-made countdowns: holidays, birthdays, weddings, trips, launches - so you can have a widget on your screen in seconds. REPEATS AND REMINDERS Set a countdown to repeat daily, weekly, monthly or yearly and it rolls forward on its own. Add reminders ahead of the day so nothing sneaks up on you. TWO WIDGET SIZES Small and medium, each fully arrangeable. SYNCS QUIETLY Turn on iCloud backup and your countdowns, reminder settings and widget photos follow you across devices signed in to the same Apple Account. Everything lives in your own private iCloud container. NO ACCOUNT, NO TRACKING There's nothing to sign up for. Your countdowns live on your device, and Orbit collects nothing about you. HOW IT WORKS 1. Tap + and name what you're counting down to, then pick the date. 2. Customize it, choose a style and background, drag the number, title, date and live countdown wherever you want them, and set the font, size and colour of each. 3. Save, then go to your Home Screen. Touch and hold anywhere, tap the + in the corner, search for Orbit and add the widget in the size you want. 4. Touch and hold the placed widget, choose Edit Widget, and pick which countdown it shows. Want several on your Home Screen? Add the widget again for each one and point each at a different countdown; same steps, step 4 is where you choose. ORBIT PRO Free includes one widget with three fonts and six icons. Orbit Pro unlocks unlimited countdowns and widgets, all eleven fonts, all twenty-two icons, emoji icons, every style and background, your own photos, and the full template gallery.

Verdict
The clearest difference is in-app purchases: Pubvance at none against Orbit's 3. Pubvance also leads on iOS requirement (15.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads and device support there is nothing between them.
