Countdown | Days until & Since

JST App-development

About this app

Count down the days until the things you look forward to, and count up the days since the moments that matter. Countdown | Days until & Since is a simple countdown app and day counter for birthdays, vacations, weddings, trips, exams and anniversaries, with reminders, home screen widgets and your own photos.

Add a date once and the app does the rest: it counts down to the day, then keeps counting up. The day you met, moved or started a new job becomes an anniversary tracker without any extra setup.

Days until and days since
- Countdowns and count ups in one list, split into Upcoming and Past
- A calendar-correct breakdown in years, months, weeks and days, plus a live clock in hours and minutes (or seconds) for events with a time
- Repeating events: yearly, monthly, quarterly, weekly, every two weeks, or patterns like the 2nd Tuesday of the month
- Lunar birthdays and festivals that move: repeat every year on the lunar, Hindu, Islamic or Hebrew calendar, around Easter, or on Diwali or Holi, with every date worked out for you
- Multi-day events with an end date: a countdown to the start, Happening now while it is on, and days since once it is over
- Count in weeks as a date gets close, so the last stretch reads 5 weeks instead of 1 month, 4 days
- A note on every event, and the total number of days since a repeating event first began

Reminders you can count on
- Up to 25 reminders per event: 1 week before, on the day, 100 days since
- Repeating reminders such as every month or every 100 days, so no milestone slips by
- Each notification shows the event's own background and the real time left
- Reminders missed while your phone was off still arrive afterwards
- A notification history keeps every reminder you have received

Time zones that travel with you
- Birthdays and holidays follow you: abroad, the day starts at local midnight and reminders arrive on local time
- Set a flight from one time zone to another and see how long it takes, with times shown your way: local, original or both
- Daylight saving time is handled for you

Widgets and calendar
- Three home screen widgets, each on your event's own photo or color: your next event (or the one you choose), a small day count, and a list
- Choose what the list shows: upcoming, past or pinned events, sorted your way
- Add an event to any calendar on your phone, Google Calendar included, and update it when you edit the event

Start from a holiday
- Tap + and pick a holiday from the row at the top to fill in a new event: Christmas, New Year, Valentine's Day, Easter, Halloween, Thanksgiving, Lunar New Year, Ramadan, Eid, Diwali, Holi, Hanukkah and more, depending on where you are
- Each one opens on its next date, already set to repeat on its own calendar

Make it yours
- Backgrounds from gradients, a collection of photos (travel, nature, cities, celebrations, love, winter) or a picture from your own gallery
- Pin favorites to the top in your own order, and sort the rest by date or name
- Share an event as an image card with the current count, or as a text message
- Dark mode, Material You dynamic colors, and 42 languages, including Arabic, Hebrew and Urdu written right to left

Backup and sync with your own Google Drive
- Back up events, reminders, photos and settings to a private folder in your own Google Drive that no other app can see
- Automatic backups every night, week or month, or right away
- Restore on a new phone in a few taps
- Sync events, photos and reminders across your phone and tablet, and settings if you like
- See how much space backups and sync use in Drive, and clear sync data for every device at once

Use it as a birthday countdown, wedding countdown, vacation, trip or flight countdown, holiday countdown, Christmas or Ramadan countdown, lunar birthday reminder, due date countdown, exam or retirement countdown, a relationship anniversary tracker, or to count the days since you quit smoking. Whatever you are waiting for or looking back on, it is one glance away.
