Ubuntu Countdown Widget

Roberto Leinardi

About this app

Keep an eye on the days remaining before the new Ubuntu release!

Features:
* Two square widgets (1x1 and 2x2)
* Ability to set a custom date
* Built with an eye on battery consumption (widget refresh at most twice a day)
* Light and Dark themes
* Good-looking (thanks to Martín Césare)

******
/!\ REMEMBER:
Do NOT move widgets to SD: they must be installed on internal memory! Otherwise they will not be visible in the widgets list.

Ratings and reviews

Still like this widget. But could it be updated faster and more actively so it shows the count down to the next Ubuntu release once it's development started and the release schedule is known, so we don't have to manually add a date? I for one would really appreciate it a lot.

Hi, I can't find a good way to contact since I'm not good at GitHub, but on Pixel 6 Pro I can't get the widget to work at all. No matter what I set it up with, the widget just has the spinning circle and never actually shows a date. This happens on this release and f-droid release. Can give more information if needed, Android 13.

Could be great if they help me. Been hacked searching for help
