DayCount for Negative User Reviews

Not freeOnly free to download, cant use unless you pay 10$..Version: 3.0.2

Widget Auto pick eventI was expecting app will pick new upcoming ‘Until’ event automatically in widget so it is easier to see in the main screen of my phone, but it doesn’t do, I need to choose the event every time once the current event is passed. It is so disappointed..Version: 5.0

False advertising, sad tacticsFalsely advertises it is free and then asks for money after you give your email..Version: 4.3.2

LimitationsI did not get this app for the large range of functions that it offers for pay, but if I needed to I could easily just go to a variety of websites/apps in order to fulfill these tasks for free. What this app should be is a day counter as described and nothing more, I don’t believe that the bundle is useful, and paying for backgrounds? I don’t think I ever will. Other than that, it does what it’s supposed to. It counts down the days from a point for me, and helps me with yearly anniversaries..Version: 2.4.2

DisappointedI decided to pay the higher price for this app so that I could use photos with dates. Once I had paid I expected everything to work. The second I tried to load a photo I saw a padlock on the link and it was asking for another £25. I wouldn’t recommend to anyone. Very poor..Version: 5.5

Too expensiveWay too over priced for such a simple app that is just the same as several other apps on the App Store which are free. I understand that this one may look a bit better but I’m not paying just to have something look nice when all I need is to count some days.Version: 4.4.1

Free version is too limitedStarted to move my data from one countdown app to this one only to find I can only have 5. Would have been nice to be allowed more. I would also have liked to be able to import the events straight from the calendar and not do it manually..Version: 4.3.2

To ExpensiveThis is a good app it works really well however you can only have 3 countdowns at a time unless you want to pay 7.99 per year. I’m not going to spend my money on that when I have a calendar so it seems a bit much. It would be better if they would cost less per year. This app also won’t let you edit a count down with out paying for it I have to delete the count down and then add it back so I can make a edit. For example I went to change a date in my count down because it was wrong but I couldn’t edit it without paying the 7.99 a year so I had to delete the count down and then remake it..Version: 3.2.1

Good but confusedI’ve used the app for about two weeks now to track when I water plants, mostly. It’s pretty good, and I love the look, but I can’t seem to make more than ten events? I’ve purchased the yearly subscription, but every time I try to make an eleventh it takes me to a screen to subscribe for Yearly or Forever. When I select one and click confirm, I just get a loading symbol and it never progresses. There seems to be a DayCount Premium or Pro or whatever according to the page here on the app store, but I can’t find anything about it in app. Otherwise I love it, but it’d be nice to have enough slots to have more than plants since I was promised “unlimited events.” 8.99 a year isn’t terrible, so I still plan to use this app. It’s just frustrating..Version: 4.2.2

InaccurateIt has a major flaw when using in the UK - it doesn’t take into account the clocks changing at the start and end of BST. So I have a countdown for October but it doesn’t take into account the clocks will go back 1 hour before I go, so the countdown is 1hr too short.Version: 3.0.1

Charging for most thingsDownloaded this app because it looked good in the screenshots. Was disappointed that you can add only 5 countdowns before it asks you to subscribe. One time purchase would have been more appropriate. Deleted and downloaded a different app..Version: 4.3.3

Not badEnjoying this app but can’t upgrade to full version as it’s just continuously loading. Free version is only a taster and not much use. Would be great app if I could upgrade.Version: 2.5

OverpricedNicely made app, love the interface. I would have paid for it if it was a one off payment. Think £7.49 a year is a bit much for this type of app. Sleep cycle does a hell of a lot more for the same amount..Version: 3.1

You have to payYou have to pay a money for a birthday countdown that’s crazy. Would not recommend.Version: 4.3.3

“Free”Why say it’s free if you have to pay for it straight away? Yes it’s a free 7 day trial but it’s one you have to give you mr bank details for. Misleading is an understatement. Instant delete..Version: 3.0.4

All my medical dataPlease help! My day count app wiped all my MEDICAL data from the past TWO YEARS! (Sometime this week). My doctor and I rely on this for treatment. Please contact me ASAP..Version: 4.0.1

Used to be a better appLoved this app, have had it for a few years. but lately it’s Soo glitchy and freezes, I don’t like that they changed the days to count down awkwardly For example: 86.6 days until … Also don’t like that I can no longer arrange the main page the way I want But either ascending or descending. Wish they’d change it back. Widgets are also very glitchy often goes grey.Version: 5.2

You need to payWhy wouldn’t you say you need to pay before downloading the app?!?.Version: 4.3.2

Not worth the ValueAt 12.49 CAD per year, this is NOT worth the value of a very simple app. While it is a competent app and I would rate it at 3/5, the price is wholly unreasonable and unrealistic. This is at most a 4.99 purchase of a 0.99 subscription per year..Version: 5.2.1

Doesn’t work on my iPhone 11This app was great and worked perfectly on my iPhone 6s, however now on my new iPhone 11 which is all up to date the app no longer works :( it just crashes straight away.Version: 3.2.5

Great countdown aspect, lacks functions.Lack of functionality includes the missing options for recurring alarms eg. Birthdays, work, weekly functions... I’ll give this app a month to improve functions..Version: 4.3.2

Good app butI like the app, purchased the full version for a number of reasons, partly to remove the ads, only to find adds are still popping up.Version: 2.4.1

Paid version?Can you please make a paid version and remove the ads? I've gotta few gold coins to throw your way.....Version: 2.1

Screw that!I understand having to pay for premium to have multiple counts in the widget but cancelling the single display in the basic version is just lame. I was considering paying for premium but this move alone made me loose interest and I won’t even keep the free version..Version: 4.3.1

ScamThis is the worst scam! You download the app, have to sign up ( give them your email address) then it turns out you have to pay for!.Version: 4.2.2

Pay for premium, but the app acting like I didn’t?Been using this app for almost 2 years now but with the recent updates, my streaks and widgets are not working properly. The app says I need to pay for premium. Yet, I’ve been had premium and every time I hit restore purchase it tells me upgrade complete yet the app continues to act, as if I did not. it is honestly very frustrating knowing that you pay for premium and the app tells you that you did but I act like you didn’t. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling, but It didn’t change anything other than deleting the stuff I was keeping track of..Version: 5.4

Won’t open since latest update (2 versions later)App kept crashing since an update, dev said he was fixing it with a new update (the most recent one) which is the comment below. STILL CRASHING and fails to open. Don’t bother downloading, certainly don’t pay money like I did until the app can actually work, then I’d suggest turning off auto updates (assuming it ever works again)..Version: 2.2.1

Need to pay to useUnfortunately the app requires you to sign up for a monthly membership, or a one time fee of around 40 dollars Canadian. Once I saw that there’s no free version I instantly deleted it. Don’t waste your time.Version: 5.5

Basically a scamThis app should advise in advance that it is only a 7 day trial... amazed apple allows them to operate in such a deceptive manner. Notwithstanding there are also better and more up to date apps with better functionality. I would NOT recommend this app to anyone..Version: 4.3.2

Very restricted free versionThe free version of the app only lets you add three events, doesn’t let you edit them once they are added, etc. Overall pretty bad if you don’t want to pay for the full version, there are much better apps out there..Version: 3.0.4

Could be great ☹️It works fluently, great to use an awesome app that counts days in such an easy to use manner, haven’t found any bugs, I couldn’t ask for more when it comes down to the way it’s used, but there is just one thing holding it back from being an essential app that everyone uses.. I understand that you have to make money, but making it so people buy the app first and then are alerted that there is so much more you can do when you pay is disappointing, it would be nice if I had a heads up so I didn’t download rather that downloading it and the first thing I get is a slap in the face about having to pay to use. Don’t get me wrong,, I don’t have a problem with paying a reasonable price for something the developers have clearly worked hard on, it’s just the way you try and get people’s money is like a scam, it’s attracts people in so they download it then BOOM all up in your face, and it’s frustrating because it’s a bit much for something that isn’t even necessary, there are many other apps that would do it for free and would charge but at least it will be one payment for life and not yearly 😡 smh.Version: 3.0.2

Bought a subscription by mistakeHello, I thought I was just getting a free trial to see if I liked the app. Instead I was charged a 1 year subscription ($12). Please refund me this amount and cancel my subscription..Version: 5.4

Avoid! App is intentionally brokenThis app used to be good and actually work 2 years ago. Sometime in the last 12 months the developer decided that if you don’t pay for premium it will wipe out all events every 2 weeks. So free version DOES NOT WORK. DO NOT trust this app, it will delete its own data to try and force you to pay for premium, which is a total ripoff. This app is BROKEN.Version: 5.2.1

Immediately wants money for any useHorrible app for not advertising something so critical.Version: 4.3.3

RubbishCan’t add more than three events without having to pay, what an absolute joke.Version: 3.2.1

Crash after updateGreat app, but after the latest update it crashes. Now I can’t even open the app..Version: 2.2

Looks like a great app, IF YOU PAY FOR ITThe app itself looks nice and seems like it has a lot of features for someone who feels like paying for the full version, but with the free version, you have access to almost NOTHING. You can’t even edit a date that you enter wrong without purchasing the upgrade. You have to delete the event and make a new one. Keeping track of how many days until/since an event is not only free to google search, but also not important enough that I feel I should have to pay for it, when other apps will work without a purchase..Version: 2.5

Passed Milestones Clutter The primary viewI used Countdown for years and wanted to try this app. The issue I have is when a milestone passes the target date it still puts it at the top of the list. It should put it below the future milestones so you see what is next, not what happened. It allows you to sort by date but it needs to allow to sort by date AND passed or future. The way it is now you either clutter up passed milestones at the top of the list OR show the furthest milestone in the future. I want to always see the NEXT milestone..Version: 4.6

$$ for Widgets Now? RIPOFF"PREMIUM FOR WIDGETS RIPOFF".. I was recommended this app from a friend who WAS counting his sobriety and I really loved it. It looked great, was easy to use and loved the convenient widgets so I too USED and RECOMMENDED it to my friend who is planning a wedding. Now she told me that this app charges to use widgets, the whole reason we wanted the app in the first place was the FREE BUILT IN widgets. It really bothers us that we would now have to pay for a feature that we already had. We're obviously not going to, but it still upset us to the point to write reviews for the first time. It WAS a great app but anything for a CASH GRAB nowadays..Version: 4.3.1

So great!I love this app but i wish there were more events available.Version: 3.0.3

Decent app, disappointing paywall tactics.App does what it says it does. Asking people to leave a review or pay in order to get rid of the intrusive ads is a bit cheeky though..Version: 2.1

Update deleted EVERYTHING!!!!!What is being done to recover the lost information??? It's fine that you're fixing it so that it doesn't happen again, HOWEVER, what do we do about the lost info????? That was the WHOLE POINT of your app. Basically, you updated the app and the app forgot how to app! Please tell me that there are some recovery efforts that are being explored..Version: 4.0.1

Updated and lost EVERYTHINGCan we get some help please ???????.Version: 4.0.1

Widget stopped workingUnable to view event selected in widget..Version: 5.5

Sign up first, or don’t use it at allAfter being constantly nudged to sign up for an account so I can track my events over multiple devices, I am transitioning to a new phone. So I finally take a the plunge. I sign up. All of my events have been deleted, as there was no merge function, and thus I have to try and manually recreate all of my events from blank nothingness. Terrible lack of function considering how often the app pressures you to sign up for an account. Not happy. Either sign up first, or don’t use this app. Why even let people create a series of events if you can’t port them over when you sign up? Silly as all get out..Version: 5.4.2

So angry.I just updated the app and lost all my events. this is appalling..Version: 4.0.1

Used to be great, now a desperate money grabNot only is my previous issue not fixed, YOU CAN NO LONGER EDIT EVENTS FOR FREE. This is outrageous and this app no longer deserves my trust. You had so much potential and yet it’s thrown away with barring BASIC FEATURES from people. Previous: The exclude certain days from count feature is broken. I’m counting the days left in my summer course so I checked off Saturday and Sunday to exclude. It’s a weekend night and it ends on a Friday, so it should be a multiple of 5 (in this case 30 bc 6 week course) but still shows 47 days in the widget, and 34 days in the app. NEITHER OF WHICH ARE ACCURATE. Please fix this inconsistency and update it with the right amount of days?.Version: 5.1

It was great until…I’ve used this app for a long time; I loved it! I would’ve given a 5 star review in the past. As someone who is in recovery from an eating disorder as well as self harm, this app would help encourage me (reminding me how far I’ve come) and helped me get over a year into recovery! It’s amazing! Well, it was…until one day it decided it wasn’t going to load my streaks anymore. I have medically-induced amnesia due to some of the treatments that I’ve had to do so I don’t have my dates memorized unfortunately. I have two widgets on my Home Screen of my phone; one of them shows me one of my dates/streaks (345 days!) but the other widget says I have no events…which means I lost my dates/streaks that are over a year! Not cool…it makes me really sad actually! I can remember the progress I’ve made but I don’t have an accurate date to celebrate on anymore! I guess I thought this app would hold on to longer term streaks..Version: 5.5

Too buggyI had this app for one day and at first able to make a countdown and widget for one event. I like the look and simplicity. However, the night after I went into the app to make more events but I couldn’t access any part of the app was frozen and couldn’t see the countdown I had made. I would have to force close the app every time. I was in my 7-day free trial but also set to subscribe for a year via Apple Pay after the 7 days. I’m not sure why I couldn’t access any part of the app. If an app is this buggy, I don’t have the patience and I’m certainly not subscribing..Version: 5.0

DisappointedSeemed great. Really liked for widgets but they didn’t work. Could only keep one widget at a time one Home Screen. So figured I’d just have one widget rather than the few I’d wanted and put the most important widget on Home Screen. But, it then only allowed not the one widget I decided on but another that I had deleted from the App itself. **Also, FYI for anyone who might have thought that widgets would work on the Lock Screen, they do not. That’s what I was really hoping for. But the home screen was fine to leave it only worked.**.Version: 5.5

All events lost!Loved this app until the latest update, which deleted all of my events. Can they be restored?.Version: 4.0.1

Simple and usefulBut they have a lot of options only available with the premium.Version: 3.0.3

Don’t install latest version - you could lose all your eventsHorrible update experience. Just upgraded to the latest version (I had the paid version) and after the update, it deleted all my existing events I had entered. Lost 15-18 events in total. Horrible experience..Version: 4.0

Good but could be betterBefore the latest update I would’ve given it 4 or even 5 stars. But now it has a decimal point. Like no thanks. Even if people do want that like let me turn it off? I don’t want 4.8 weeks just say 5 weeks. I get what your trying to show but it just looks messy. Everything else is pretty good, love you can use your own pics or search the library. Some great shots. Really happy that as a free customer I can just use the one thing I need. The widget is great. Just the decimal point. Let me switch it off and I’ll change my rating 😅.Version: 5.1

Update broke my eventsIt just updated and with the new categories I have now lost all of my events 😟 not happy.Version: 4.0.1

Error Making An EventApp seems great but when I downloaded it and tried to make a new event, it always says “Oops! Something went wrong.” I’ve tried reinstalling the app too but it still didn’t work. Any help?.Version: 4.1.1

Only 7 days then costs $$$Gotta pay.Version: 3.0.4

Don’t want to use this app anymoreThere’s no way of deleting my email to unsubscribe to this app it is quite frustrating as I do not wish to use it anymore It’s an ok app but not for me.Version: 4.3.3

All my data gone after updating....Wow, I had a few day counters that were about 2 years in the work and very meaningful to me. Today I go to check the widget and get a prompt to sign in to view my info. I think to myself “strange, I don’t recall ever signing in/creating sign info” and I’m a premium member so so you’d think I’d be aware if o ever signed in/created a sign in but no, idk what sign in info they’re talking about. I press skip and see all my counters there with there days reset....this hurts because I had some very meaningful days, I am very thankful I had some dates in my calendar but still lost a lot of other important dates and info. I am seriously considering canceling my premium membership......Version: 4.1.3

Would have been 5 starsI used this to keep track of lots of things that needed to be done periodically. The app broke with the new iOS update, and instead of fixing it (even though the developer said it was fixed), they recommended reinstalling the app. That sounds fine and dandy, except I lost all of the dates I was tracking by doing so and had no way to see them to back them up beforehand. I won’t be using this app any longer if the developer can’t fix their own app after an Apple update. That’s especially true since this app is intended to track dates you need to know. What a waste....Version: 2.2.1

New update has wiped all dataThe new update has reset all of my counters. What’s the point of such an app if it resets the counters. I would have been better off writing down dates on a scrap of paper instead of using this rubbish app. Extremely disappointed..Version: 4.1.2

DeletedI used this app for a long time, and entered MANY important dates. I had it automatically sync with iCloud, which I naturally thought would protect my vast amount of dates in the cloud. However, after updating to the latest iOS (13.4 on both my iPad and iPhone) the app is completely empty, and their standard support response seems to be 'sorry it won't happen again'. Seems like the app was developed by amateurs?. Had they took proper precautions, they would have discovered this highly detrimental glitch during beta testing. It highlights their complete lack of effort. Save your money and find a reliable app. I'm just glad I manually backed up all my dates in notepad when I was bored one evening. I'm frustrated at all the time and effort I wasted entering them, and adding all the pictures. As the title suggests, I've deleted it..Version: 4.0.1

YeetI really like the style of the app.Version: 3.1

Nice app but...This is a nice app but you can only have up to 3 events unless you pay for premium and you can’t upload your own photos for the background unless you pay for premium..Version: 3.0

Sort of goodMaybe give at least 10 dates to save on the app instead of paying for more.Version: 3.0.3

New update bugThe new update just deleted all my events. Not pleased about that at all. I had so many things and they’re all gone... 😐.Version: 4.0.1

Restore purchase won’t work. APP can’t be synced to other devices,Restore purchase won’t work. APP can’t be synced to other devices, way to expensive for what you get..Version: 2.5

Great AppI haven't got the upgrade but it's fine without it, other than the fact that u can only have 3 events. However I love the design of the app and how it's really colourful. Good work 😊.Version: 2.1

Not greatThe fact that I have to write this review in order to “unlock” the ability to have 8 day counts at once has made me come to the decision to find a better app that doesn’t make you jump through hoops to use it..Version: 3.0.3

It’s not free lolYou have to pay for this… an insane amount too. For an app that counts down to a date…. It should be free MAYBE 1$. These guys are charging like 12$ a month or something stupid like that… deleeeete..Version: 4.5

Schedule Deleted After closing App, no sync between iPad and iPhone.So I purchased the one time forever subscription and spent about 2 hours scheduling significant events for 2020 on my iPad using the app. I was so happy that I had my full year schedule loaded into the app that I decided to also download the app on my iPhone. When I opened the app, none of what I had done for the past two hours synced to my iPhone. No problem, I will just close the apps on each device and reopen, hopefully, it will sync now. WRONG! Not only did it not sync but the entire schedule that spent hours inputting on my iPad all erased. Very Frustrating! Please tell me that this app actually deletes your count down schedule if you close the app??? I’m hoping this is a glitch, if not, I Sir would like a refund. Update: After an email to support, app started synching. My events are still lost so 3 stars for the loss of data on the first try..Version: 3.2.5

No manual sortI was enjoying the app but since the update you can no longer manually sort the order so you can’t chose what is shown first in the widget. Not as useful now as I have to expand the widget to get to the date I look at the most..Version: 4.1.1

Good but badI think day count is good for what it is but if you want to have more than four countdowns you have to pay. That is the biggest let down..Version: 3.2.5

Streaks IssueI payed for the streaks upgrade but it doesn’t seem let you set a date in the past as a start date🙁. I’ve tried editing after starting the streak but still no way to adjust the start date of the streak..Version: 3.0

Long term reliable app crippled by newest IOSI’ve used this app for years to countdown towards payday, holidays, Xmas ect using the widget function. However the latest IOS update made widgets display grey boxes instead of the countdown, I’ve now had to get another app which is nowhere near as good, please fix this!.Version: 5.5

Thanks For NothingDid your latest update and lost all my events, and I don’t remember any of the dates, that’s what the app was for..Version: 4.0

Nice but pointless without widgetUnless you pay an extortionate amount you cannot add the countdown widget to your home screen. For this reason I deleted the app. A pointless download for me..Version: 4.6

Multiple widgets do not show upGot this app to keep myself accountable. Thing was working fine for several months, but once I added another day count widget to my iPhone Home Screen to keep track of two events, the even wouldn’t show up. Just a black box on the Home Screen. I tried everything I could think of and nothing worked. Turned off the phone and on again multiple times. Removed the widget then added it back. Deleted then replaced the countdown date. Removed then reinstalled the app. Nothing. Still just one widget works, while the other is just a black box. Anyone have any solutions for this? I really enjoyed the app until it got all buggy. Don’t want to give it anything less that 2 stars because it was a great ride for awhile..Version: 4.3.3

Update deleted everythingThis was a great app. But the last update deleted absolutely everything. Maybe because I didn’t want to make an account? Also I could use this stand alone without a data connection previously but now it asks for one. So that’s not great either. But it doesn’t matter since all my info from the previous five years I was keeping track of is gone now there’s no point to having the app anyway..Version: 4.1.1

Lost dataDeveloper response: “so, so sorry..it won’t happen again”. That’s it. It has happened to other people before and you, that’s right Mr. Harry Khoury. Your response is disgraceful and pathetic. Not even an offer for the huge loss of my time. WARNING: Harry Khoury is the developer of five apps. Anyone using this guys apps should STOP right now and post a negative comment to discourage others from making the same mistake of trusting this guy. It is also an embarrassment to Apple who is supposed to approve apps. So so sorry Harry but you are an irresponsible developer and human. One month ago I would have given this app the highest rating. Then, a new update was loaded and I LOST ALL MY DATA. USE THIS APP AT YOUR OWN PERIL. TOTAL IRRESPONSIBLE PROGRAMMING..Version: 4.0.1

$$$This app cost money so ... I will change for a other one 🤷‍♀️.Version: 3.0.3

HELP!It deleted everything :( please I need it back.Version: 4.0.1

All data lostThe app has been brilliant for me, used it for some while to track my fitness and giving up an addiction but i just opened it to purchase the pro version and all my data has been wiped. Absolutely gutted. I'm gonna look for a different one to purchase but don't be put off using this app for everyday stuff but keep a note somewhere of the date of starting it so you don't get the disheartening shock that i just did.Version: 4.0.1

New update ruined appNot only did I lose all my data, I am not even able to edit the dates so I can use this app properly. Whenever I try to, I am not able to press “done” to save the correct date.....Version: 4.1.2

Not good you have to payI downloaded this and as soon as I got in you have to pay money or you can’t use the app. Why don’t apps just put the money rate there instead of free because it’s not free...7 days then you have to pay. No thanks. But good for people who can afford these apps...I can’t. ♥️.Version: 3.2.1

TrashMakes you pay a subscription fee. Who in their right mind would pay for this when there’s countless free alternatives on the App Store. Waste of time and money, don’t download.Version: 4.2.2

False advertisingThe App Store needs to look into why developers are able to get away with apps like this. It’s not free, it’s a subscription, which is the worst kind of not-free..Version: 4.3.2
