Thanks for adding the HH:mm format to the 1x1 widget! The text still is small and I still suggest you look at the Age Widget app for a great example of optimization of 1x1 widget real estate. E.g. The progress bar should be optional and the margins for the text should be much smaller. The KWGT app is also a good place to find examples of powerful formatting capabilities.

Update: we shipped it. As of v1.28 the 1x1 widget shows hours and minutes together, so you can see minutes remaining at a glance with no touch needed. Thanks for the Age Widget suggestion and for the nudge on this one.

Really wish you could select the timer's by interval such as 6 months or 1 year, rather than date and time each time, and then you could refresh the timer from the grid when necessary. sometimes I'll miss the deadline, and just wanna start over quickly.

Hi Scott, thank you for the suggestion! We really like the idea of creating timers by an interval, such as 6 months or 1 year, and being able to quickly restart them when needed. We've added this to our feature list for consideration in a future update. Thanks for using Approach Countdown!

Thank you so much! Helping people stay on top of important dates without stress is exactly why we built Approach. We're glad it’s been useful for you.

What’s new

Thanks to everyone who wrote in with feedback, this one came straight from a review.

• The 1x1 widget now shows hours and minutes together, so you can see exactly
how much time is left without tapping it open. Ideal for medication timing.
(Applies when using an hours/minutes display mode.)
• Fixed a small gap between the progress ring and the widget background.
• Compatibility and reliability improvements.
