Ratings and reviews

This app works pretty well, but not ideally, and it causes some frustration. It has no apparent way to view hours, minutes, and seconds remaining until an event without tapping on a specific event, and the widgets also appear not to show these details. The cost of premium is too high and has no one-time purchase option. I can't even try the widgets without purchasing premium, which I refuse to pay without getting to try them out first.

I was enjoying this app at first.. I even bought the subscription. But yesterday it started to bug out till the point I couldn't use it anymore. it wouldn't let me add/remove events anymore. and randomly signed me out. Every time I tried signing back in, it just stuck on loading. I tried everything to fix it, reinstalling it didn't help either, made the problem worse. I have to find another countdown app, again..

Decent, but buggy. Sprung for premium. Will use it this year, but I'm hoping some updates happen before the renewal period. Widget doesn't display the event text, it took several tries to get the custom category to stick. Mostly just concerned about the widgets. Cute icons are good. Too many churchy ones though. Would prefer food icons instead. Love the education icons!

What’s new

NEW: Calendar View. See every event on a beautiful month grid. Tap a day to see what's coming, swipe between months, and open any countdown straight from the calendar. Find it from the icon at the top of your events list (Premium, with a free preview).

Also in this update: refreshed event cards in Calendar View with each event's own color, smoother scrolling, and fixes, including day cells sizing correctly on first tap and clearer plan naming in Settings.

Thanks for counting down with us!
