Event countdown
An event countdown app for everything worth tracking
Create flexible countdowns for deadlines, launches, parties, games, trips, school dates, and personal milestones.
Why it helps
One countdown app for many kinds of dates.
Custom display units
Choose years, months, weeks, days, hours, minutes, seconds, or the mix that best fits the event.
Visible reminders
Use widgets and notifications so important dates do not disappear into a calendar.
A better way to keep dates visible
Calendars are good at storing dates, but they are not always good at making a date feel close. Countdowns turns an event into a visible timer that can sit on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, Apple Watch, iPad, or Mac.
That makes it useful for serious deadlines and fun events alike. One app can handle a work launch, a trip, a birthday, a race, a graduation, or a personal goal.
Match the countdown to the event
Different events need different displays. A vacation might need weeks and days. A game might need hours. A launch might need exact minutes. Countdowns lets each timer use the units and style that make sense.
