Countdown for Negative User Reviews
✓ Not User FriendlyOnce you set a countdown it’s hard to figure out how to find settings to edit.I mean, once you understand it, you get it. But there’s no user friendliness at all. Plus when you try to share it with your friends, it takes you to a webpage of an image of your photo with the reminder text in a different font from what you chose, it’s not in the same place you placed it in the app, and the music doesn’t play. The music should play. I tried subscribing to see if that would make a difference and it doesn’t. I don’t see any advantage to subscribing to this. Canceled immediately..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Bit pointless.Got it because I wanted the countdown on my Home Screen and it says in the description this is an option but the only thing I can add as a widget says “Get Premium” so I assume that means you have to buy premium to use that functionality. So sick of apps advertising as one thing and doing another..Version: 4.5.12
✓ The Song You Set Will Play Without Opening The App?I’m not sure if it’s a feature of the app, but I HATE that whatever song you set for an event, it’ll play without opening the app. It’s NOT playing from your ITunes playlist or anything it just plays at random times!!?? For example, I made a countdown till Christmas and set “I’ll be home for Christmas” to play when I open the app for the countdown till Christmas. Somehow, whatever countdown it’s on (in particular the Christmas one) the stupid song will play whenever it feels like it! I’ll be in the car driving and all of a sudden “I’ll be home for Christmas” will just play! Sometimes multiple times a day. I don’t understand this? This NEVER happened before I installed the app! I also have a new phone! What the heck? Well I like the app besides this weird glitch. Without it, it would be better. It’s not so great when the theme song to Halloween goes off at 1am for your countdown till Halloween..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Slow and full of adsPlenty of other apps out there. This one is slow to load and has full screen ads before you get to your countdown. You want a quick check and move on. This one is tiresome..Version: 4.5.7
✓ IssuesLove the app, does what it says… however I paid for premium so I could have widgets etc and I’m not getting those things. Still says try premium and the widget is locked. Not very happy about that.Version: 4.5.7
✓ Why does this app need to know my locationOpened the app after a recent update (I only use this app to countdown to holidays) and it came up with a pop up to say that location services have been turned on to find countdowns near me, and that I can turn off location in the app settings. I don’t want to know about countdowns near name so I went to settings to turn it off and the blurb about the location services said that it’s for advertisement purposes (so already two conflicting pieces of information, but I’m believing the latter). I turn it off, and go back, it turns it back on again with the pop up, and I do this three more times. You cannot use this app without sharing your location with them. Which is absolutely ridiculous. For the one task this app does, I can do myself- I now have deleted it. I am sick of things needing to know my location to give me ads..Version: 4.4.0
✓ After Year(s) of use - Removal of features unless I upgrade to PremiumAs a free (ad filled) app it was good to have a countdown tool with an ability to have a widget with my key countdown. Very dissappointed that this widget is now a premium feature, with no notice or communications. Shoddy - I shall be taking my ad revenue elsewhere and deleting the app..Version: 4.5.6
✓ Not accurateI got the app and paid for it so I could use the widget. But the widget and the app don’t even show the same number!! It doesn’t work. But worse … I’ve contacted support and there is NO reply. None. Nothing..Version: 4.5.4
✓ TerribleAds that you can’t exit out of even when you pay for it. Don’t bother..Version: 4.5.7
✓ SssOoooo I’m a shoe!!!!!.Version: 4.5.4
✓ DisappointedHi, disappointed with this app. Even though you pay for it, you still get adds. The reason I pay is to get ride of ads..Version: 4.5.7
✓ Ok but…..I paid for Premium, but when I open the app I get a full screen ad that I can’t get rid of, because the (X) in the upper right corner is only partially visible, because of the curvature of the iPhone screen edge doesn’t reveal enough of the (X) to touch it effectively. But the real question is, why am I getting a full page ad after I paid for premium to get rid of them? LOL.Version: 4.5.7
✓ Do not purchase if you want to share your CountdownsCan’t give this app more than three stars without the ability to share my Countdown. I have an important event coming up next year, one that is particularly special for me and a friend; I poured a couple hours into creating a dynamic countdown, with personalized music and a slideshow containing dozens of edited photographs. I would not have spent so much time if I had known sharing my work with others, a feature that commonly comes with other (free) countdown apps, is not possible with this one. What a bummer. You guys have done so many other things right; but none of it matters if can’t share your creation with other people. A person typically starts a countdown for an important event in their life, something they want to share with others; it’s such a fundamental feature on an app like this, I really am shocked you have not prioritized this fix above all else. Please update your app with sharing capabilities and I will update my review to five stars..Version: 4.2.8
✓ Great App … but limited # of entriesI love this app and have been using it for years. Last year I went to add an event and was prompted that I could not add additional dates. I liked the app so much that I decided to pay for the pro version so I could add more dates and get rid of ads. I thought the pro version would get rid of the ads but still have to view an add before entering the app. I recently added my 20th date and am NOT able to add any more. I like to look back at my trips and adventures but will be UNABLE to add any more. Not sure I will continue to pay yearly fee when my subscription ends..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Too many adsIf you want a free ready to use & easy customizable app.. This is not the app for you. I deleted the app after clicking one too many times on an ad.Version: 4.2.8
✓ AdequateThis app is adequate, I enjoy having bribes to unlock more settings but can get annoying for other users. I would suggest having more set colors for the writing and background but otherwise a good app. Handy for a countdown....Version: 3.5.6
✓ Badge counter has stopped working after last update.I’ve been using the premium/paid version of this app since 2014 and I’ve never had any problems. However, after the most recent update, the badge notifications option disappeared. I did not change any settings, but still double checked to make sure I had the appropriate notification options selected in iOS. In the app, the option to select an event to have displayed via the badge has been completely removed. Very disappointing that the devs would remove a perfectly working function that I paid for!.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Unoptimised and weirdThis app does the job, the UI is very strange though, menues are blocky and unappealing, the countdown itself is 16:9 so it looks a bit rubbish on a mobile device. The app itself is also quite glitchy and sporadic. It’s like this is the prototype of the app that should still be in development. Surprised apple allow it on here in this state. Plenty of other countdown apps with a much nicer user interface..Version: 4.5.5
✓ GoodThe app is good but the most annoying thing is that you only a limit to 4 countdowns can someone explain this ! Also adverts keep popping up in between the editing of the countdowns . Every time you import a picture from their own library an advert comes up!!! You should be grateful I'm at least give you few stars instead of one!!!!!!😤 However , I read some of the reviews just to let you know they did not ask me to write a review before playing the games. 😐😐.Version: 4.2.7
✓ Randomly playing the song I’ve selectedWe use this app all the time to countdown to events, but the most recent time, the app keeps playing the song I’ve selected for our countdown even when I’m not even touching my phone. And when it’s on silent! Wonder if this is happening to anyone else?! Makes me want to delete the app!.Version: 4.2.8
✓ Doesn't WorkI purchased the premium app so that I could add my own music and photos. Everything worked fine until it came time to share the countdown. When I share to FB or message or email it is just showing one photo, no song. I have tried everything and still not working. I have sent an email to support and have gotten no response. I paid for this?? UNINSTALLED I have contacted Apple and put in a request for a refund. There is no reason on earth to pay a premium for the ability to add your own images and your own music only to find out that you can't share your custom countdown by text, email or social media. It only provides you with a link that gives a logo graphic from developer and when you click on the link, it is only one of your 10 allowed photos and no sound. I appreciate that the developer answered my email but there seems to be no solution offered. All the reviews that complain of the sharing issue go pretty far back and yet nothing has improved..Version: 4.2.7
✓ Complete garbageWouldn’t post to my Facebook Page. No instructions on how to use. A waste of my time..Version: 4.5.8
✓ Really?If you’re going to make me pay money in a monthly subscription to use the widget feature once I’ve created the event, let me know beforehand—as I wouldn’t have downloaded the app! Don’t worry, I deleted it immediately. Waste of time and deceptively advertised..Version: 4.5.11
✓ Where’s Countdown Type?Hello, l have already downloaded your countdown timer apps. I have been creating my new one but l realise there’s one missing. I still don’t understand why can’t l have “Countdown Type:- Count Up” Could you please explain me why l do not have Countdown Type? My iPhone 6s Plus I look forward to hearing from you as soon as possible. Thank you.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Good App but no option to Cancel SubscriptionWorked well, but now that the event is over, I want to cancel my auto renewing subscription. There is no option to do this in the App Store or the app..Version: 4.5.11
✓ Go ProA terrific App. I find that this App is easy to use with an allowance of various options to personalize. Try the free “limited” version however, you will most likely prefer the affordable Pro version without ads and extra features. The developers are commutative, accessible and want your feedback which is priceless in the App market, many developers seem to abandon or show a lack of interest in their application, you won’t find that here. I believe with feedback and support the app will continue to improve..Version: 4.2.8
✓ :/It's good in terms of choosing your own picture & how it counts down. But it doesn't let you write your own title for whatever you are counting down for unless you update to premium..Version: 3.1.3
✓ Works goodThis app is perfect and customisable it is simple but I only have two problems, first, how do I change the name of the event? Second, I can’t change the picture to my own. I would rate this a four or five star if it wasn’t for these problems..Version: 4.2.8
✓ Can No Longer Resize/Crop Photos In The AppAfter two years of not being able to go anywhere I am finally using the app again. I updated it and noticed there is no longer an option to resize/crop pictures I want to use. Now pictures I am using are missing most of the image. I went and did the year subscription to see if that adds that option for photos. No it didn't and so now useless for me to use my own photos, a wasted $7.99 for a year and all it does is remove adds..Version: 4.5.8
✓ Deleted itThe app was requiring me to share my location. That is unnecessary for a countdown. I don’t give very many apps my location. There are plenty of other countdown apps to choose from..Version: 4.5.6
✓ Only 20 countdowns max, even with premium!I’ve been using this app for about a year, I would say generally it’s a good app for free +ads. Colorful and simple. But I just hit the limit of entries! Apparently you’re limited to 20 entries. I started a trial of premium to see if that let me make more and - it didn’t!! Terrible!! Why would I pay to remove ads on an app that will randomly limit how many countdowns I can make?? To such a low number, too! I have used this to count down to my reunions with my long distance boyfriend, and I am sad that now I have to choose between keeping the “full” essentially useless app on my phone, or deleting cute memories. Really disappointing..Version: 4.5.11
✓ DisappointedWish I could go back and not update it because now I have to pay to see a widget and can’t even see my countdowns.. disappointed.Version: 4.5.2
✓ Used to be goodSpam adverts with a countdown timer attached! As all things in the App world, it started out good. A simple task of counting down to a pre set date and time is now an advert fest! It’s a shame greed seems to destroy the most basic of apps..Version: 4.5.7
✓ OkAPP is ok does what it says it will, but as a FREE AAP it is only going to let you have basic use as obviously they do want to make some money so you will have to pay to have exactly what you want and put up with the ads. No complaints from me I just want a quick fun visual countdown and it does exactly this..Version: 4.3.9
✓ AwfulThis is a terrible app, you cannot click ‘add’ without a final fantasy advert that stays on screen for what feels like forever! Really terrible, not user friendly (can’t see the calendar banner at the top because of adverts when trying to select a font) for your event, 4 picture options unless you pay for premium?!?! I’d be fascinated to see who has paid for premium! Truly awful!.Version: 4.2.8
✓ FrustratedI’ve had this app for years… the ads have finally ruined it. Now I try to open the app, and it’s just an ad that I can’t exit out of. Was good when it lasted I guess.Version: 4.5.7
✓ FreezesFreezes on my 11 pro max.Version: 4.5.3
✓ Okayish…?Paid for subscription to add it as a widget to my Home Screen but once added it says I have to unlock premium to use it, but I already have… have tried deleting the widget and doing it again but no luck🤷🏼♀️.Version: 4.5.6
✓ The widgets won’t work!This is very frustrating! I got this app to track my event mainly to stay organized and just for as for the aesthetic on my screen. So I got this app, put all my info in then tried the widgets… it wouldn’t work! All I saw was black screen on the widgets. I tried hitting edit widgets and it WOULD NOT WORK! I also have a fairly new apple iPhone so I think its not the phone glitching. I have deleted the app, shut my phone off, tried making other events but nothing would work. So I will bring using other apps that will help me stay organized and actually work..Version: 4.5.12
✓ Has great featuresI’ve had this app for years. The ability to change fonts, add photos and name the event is fantastic. However, even with a paid subscription there are junk pop-up ads like ‘virus detected’. The home screen widget has a countdown but doesn’t show a picture and instead of saying ‘holiday’ or whatever you’ve named your event, it says ‘oops’. It was funny at first but now it’s just annoying having a grey box on my screen that says 135 days until oops.Version: 4.5.8
✓ 1 issueLove the app, awesome concept of being able to customize the background and setting a widget. Also love that you can put music to your countdown when the app is open; with that being said the only thing that I do not like is that my app randomly will play the music set to my count down without me opening the app. If I have music playing it stops my music and please the music from the app. If I’m on a phone call it will randomly play the music as well. Both of which are extremely annoying because you have to open the app to close it for the music to shut off. I hope that this can be fixed, I think this is definitely one of the better count down apps available..Version: 4.3.1
✓ DecentThis app is good for countdowns but it’s been made extremely hard to create them and I’ve been searching for at least twenty minutes trying to find how to delete one of my specific countdowns..Version: 4.3.2
✓ OkIt does it’s job but I hate the ads!.Version: 4.4.0
✓ Come on!As much as I loved using this app, u could only do one timer unless you payed for premium. Plz make it so u don’t have to pay and u can do as many times as you want. Thanks.Version: 4.2.8
✓ Pay money and don’t get to use subscriptionsPaid for a 3 months subscription, 20 days ago. Subscription isn’t working and app won’t allow me to use subscription aspects. Contacted app developer after speaking to apple and haven’t heard back from Sunflowr about it after first contact which was to ask what the issue is. Waste of money and time. Wouldn’t bother..Version: 4.5.11
✓ Waste of time, charges for what it’s supposed to doPiece of crap wasted my time just to try to charge me for the one thing the app is supposed to do. Go on my screen. Scummy.Version: 4.5.2
✓ HorribleFalse advertising. Downloaded the app, set up my widget, and as i went to add it to my lock screen, it told me it was a premium feature. Waste of time, poorly designed app not even worth a single cent from mine or yours wallet..Version: 4.5.8
✓ Fit for purposeGood app does exactly what it's suppose to. Can take a moment to figure edits, the adverts are random. For more backgrounds it requires you to collect points by watching videos or downloading other apps. It's functional and ok..Version: 4.2.1
✓ PaywallTo display this as a widget, you need to unlock the premium version..Version: 4.5.1
✓ Don’t download!!Don’t download and save yourself some time!!! You can’t put your own date in and you cannot name the event! It just sets the timer a year from now.. There’s absolutely no functions at all either, only a screen with a countdown and a picture in the back you can scroll to change! So bad.Version: 4.5.12
✓ Annoying!!Used to be a great app, now they’ve got ads popping up every time I click on anything, so ridiculous and annoying !!!.Version: 4.4.6
✓ Good appThis app would be great, and it is really good, until you have to perform a task, such as like on Facebook or rate on the AppStore, to gain more capabilities. This makes a great app go down hill very quickly when you want to do something and find out you can't do it without performing a task. Still, I would recommend this app above others..Version: 4.0.1
✓ DisappointedSo disappointed to see that you now need to purchase “premium” in order to use the widget. Deleted..Version: 4.5.0
✓ CrashesGood app, but upon opening it, it crashes. Needs to be opened twice for it to work..Version: 4.2.1
✓ DisappointedWanted this app for an charity event I was hosting. I couldn’t get it to share as a live countdown in the event, which was what I wanted it for. In addition to this I managed to purchase the premium account in error as it was to easily done. Even with premium I couldn’t share it as a live count down. Going premium didn’t provide, from my point of view any Additional benefits. I couldn’t cancel the purchase once it was made. I contact the app provided, they couldn’t do anything and now I have had to go to Apple. All very frustrating. Total waste of money would not recommend!.Version: 4.2.8
✓ Seriously?You now have to pay for premium so you can name your event. You have to pay $3.99 for words. That's ridiculous..Version: 4.2.7
✓ Restore purchase doesn’t work!Changed from 5* to 1*. I bought this app years ago and now it doesn’t allow me to have the badge countdown. I tried to delete and reinstall the app and lost all my countdowns so I’m angry about that. I then tried to restore my premium purchase and it said I have no previous purchases. I’ve only lost out on £3 but that’s besides the point, it’s the memories from my countdowns that I’m more frustrated about. Absolute joke..Version: 4.3.3
✓ FrustratingHave to reload data every time I open app. App wants access to photos to upload, then doesn't upload..Version: 4.2.7
✓ I loved this app until...I really loved this countdown app previously. I could add whatever background picture, style font, color for font, et cetera... I could be as creative as I wanted to be with the placement of the countdown. I could do slideshows and add it to my widgets on my Apple iPhone. Now it makes me watch an ad every time I try to change the font size. Or charge me $$ to add a widget. I can’t even edit a previous countdown without it repeatedly making me watch an ad. Key word - repeatedly. Select the settings for anything and I have to watch a 30 second game as for nothing I will ever download. I will be deleting this app. I wish I could insert the 42 second video of what it was like to wait for the ad to finish for me to edit anything. I recorded it via the new record screen iPhone update..Version: 4.2.7
✓ No red badgePaid to upgrade for the premium features, but there is no red badge option despite what the blurb says in the App Store. I email the developers to ask when the red badge feature will be made available but they did not bother to reply. Stay away much better app options available for free, that actually does what it says in the blurb..Version: 4.3.5
✓ Annoying advert pop upsThis used to be a really great app but now there are adverts popping up all the time even when you are trying to share a snapshot to social media. Please sort it out or at least give us the option to remove the adverts.Version: 4.2.8
✓ Not worth itI downloaded it and it doesn’t look good. Definitely not worth to even download. I didn’t mean to purchase the upgrade but I by accident bought it when I thought I was downloading a different app. Terrible app..Version: 4.4.7
✓ Trop de publicitéJ’utilisais cette application depuis plusieurs années, mais elle a maintenant trop de publicité et c’est très agaçant. Je ne vois pas l’intérêt de payer mensuellement pour une telle application. Je l’ai donc supprimé.Version: 4.5.12
✓ No email to send feedbackSupport seems non existent, even after becoming premium subscriber.Version: 4.5.7
✓ A d sIts pretty good. That ad at the top of the page is annoying and it won’t let me get rid of it for free by doing offers since they aren’t available. I’m not paying $4.49 for something I’ll only use a few times a year.Version: 4.3.1
✓ CountdownThis used to have a count down that was visable when not in the actual app. It has been removed and I don’t like it.Version: 4.3.2
✓ Rip Off! Don’t Buy!This app does not work at all and the developers know it doesn’t work! But it works well enough to charge your card. I can’t get it to generate a link to my Facebook group, it tells me that my messenger is unavailable, I can’t get it to generate a link to my email. Simply put, I want my money back! There has got to be a way to report this I’m contacting Apple because it’s not right that these developers put these apps on here for us to purchase when they know it’s not working! And guess what I gotta purchase it again to use it on my iPhone?! I Will also be filing a better business bureau report against Sevenlogics Inc developer!.Version: 4.3.0
✓ READ BEFORE YOU BUYI know when you are buying an app you look at the worst reviews I want to tell you that this app is good it has adds at the top of the screen but that is fine. DONT BUY PREMIUM. you don’t need it the app does it’s job without it. learn how to use the app properly before you judge it.Version: 4.5.4
✓ WorksWanted an app I could count time since doing something last and countdown to future events. For that this app work wells and shows the info in a aesthetic way. The UI in terms of how new counters of countdowns is made is a bit odd but not impossible to understand. Bit slow to launch at first and ads are a bit invasive, maybe the premium version would fix this?.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Was decent but stopped Working.*I had to edit and take away a star because the music feature stopped working. So two out of the 3 upgrades o paid for does not work. I liked this app. I paid for the upgrade and added fun music to hype me up for my vacation and the widget is great. I can’t get the badge to work... it’s not an option in the Apple settings even though it’s switch on in the countdown app setting. I would also love to see an option for this to be a wallpaper on the background or lock screen of your phone. All in all it’s decent..Version: 4.2.8
✓ Can’t edit countdown if you leave the app mid-setupI was creating my countdown and received a phone call so the countdown completed itself with the information that it had; which was very little and the only edit that I could make was the font. I deleted the app and downloaded it so I’m going to try again, but that’s irritating and should be corrected. Edit: This app is garbage! You can post it on social networks, but it doesn’t show the countdown -it provides a link to the countdown; which no one is going to click on. How do I know that no one will click it? Because I wouldn’t even click on it. I just wanted to post a cute little countdown on my Facebook, but that’s clearly too much to ask for... To the developer: No need to email - I told you what the issue is above: I received a phone call while filling in the info for the countdown and it finalized itself and wouldn’t allow me the ability to finish setting up the date etc. I deleted it and reinstalled and was able to create a countdown; however, it doesn’t do what I’m looking for, so the endeavor was an all around waste of time..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Extremely disappointedI used to use this app to have some countdowns. Mostly for friends birthdays, my own birthday, and special events I had on going on the year prior. Now, I can’t even use it. Unless you buy the premium, you can’t have more than one countdown, or choose events already in your apple calendar. I used to be able to have up to three free ones and choose any day I wish. Now I can’t even do that. I’m extremely upset and will be undownloading the app until something changes. Not worth the space unless you want to fish out some extra cash, which I think is ridiculous cause these features should be basic and free. Adding slideshow and stuff like that I can understand that you need premium but otherwise, unnecessary..Version: 4.4.0
✓ What changed?Have had this app for a couple of years now. Loved it! Suddenly now I can’t reorganize my events because the picture overlaps after I touch the edit button. Frustrating!.Version: 4.4.2
✓ Almost too customizable...This is a 10 minute review: “how did I find the first 10 minutes of using this app?”... For an app that’s supposed to be an extension of your calendar/excitement building app... it falls short with being awkward and _not fun_ to look at or use. It takes ages to set up a single event (loading photos, fonts, colours) and when finished... the app font might not work with the default Apple widget aesthetic. Pros: - Calendar event link (note, you cannot change the title of an event in the app so if you have connecting flights to a place, you’d be better off doing it manually). - Lots of choice with fonts which is nice to go with photos - Landscape mode - No “categorizing” which you see in other apps (this is a personal thing. Events for me don’t need to be categorized in an app like this, I would do that in my own calendar) Cons: - Excessive ad placement: There’s an ad in the widget and another ad every time you press a button. - Too much choice for most of it: Slows down the process of creating events and the font I chose to go with my photo ended up looking silly in the widget (above the ad which was a different font too). - Default photos cannot be removed: even though free doesn’t include a slideshow, I accidentally swiped up once and a different (default) photo appeared which was completely separate to my event. Weird..Version: 4.2.7
✓ GlitchI got 19 years to live but I want to restart it so I want to reset my fate by watching a video but it doesn’t work! But overall it’s a pretty cool app.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Ads in the wayI can’t edit because the ads are in the way..Version: 4.4.0
✓ Slightly disappointedI like the graphics of the app and all the details and photos you can use, and I can handle all the ads because that’s what comes with a free app often enough, but my main issue is that the reason for downloading a countdown app was to have a sort of Widget or badge on my phone main screen with a countdown, however you can only get that option if you PAY for it, which for me defeats the purpose. If I wanted to open an app to see how long I have until an event, I can just open my calendar. If you don’t mind that, more power to you, but for me the app didn’t do what I needed it to do..Version: 4.2.8
✓ MehThe timer over my pics is unfortunate. Not upgrading for a single event.Version: 4.4.3
✓ Greedy developersI paid for premium, which was supposed to remove ads. The only ads it removed were the banner ads on the app. They still pop open an ad every time I open the app and make me click to skip the ad. This is extremely annoying. They blatantly lied about removing ads and still show ads to paid subscribers. I will be launching a complaint with apple and getting a refund ASAP. Steer clear of this developers apps..Version: 4.5.7
✓ A small bugI am experiencing a slight problem in this app where I can’t delete an old event from 4 weeks ago. If this was fixed, it would be great.Version: 4.2.7
✓ Countdown Badge?!?I’ve had this app for quite a while now and love most of the components. However, the part that I liked the most (the countdown badge on the app icon) has gone! I don’t want to have to go into the app every time to see my countdown... why did you get rid of this? And when others have made the same complaint, why not bring it back?.Version: 4.3.6
✓ Not too shabbyWould be better if you didn't need to enable features by liking on Facebook etc.Version: 4.0.1
✓ Not worth itYou have to pay to customize what your count down is called, what the photo background is and a bunch of other features for the app to function. There’s an app called countdown star that does everything for free use that instead :).Version: 4.4.1
✓ Paid for premium, still get adsI paid for premium to be able to use the widget on my home page. Not only does the app crash every once in a while, but another selling point was just a lie altogether. They said paying would remove ads. It didn’t. Any time I open it I’m greeted by an ad that I won’t be able to skip until a little timer runs out. The ad I saw which caused me to write this, I was not able to close because it was formatted improperly. I was not able to hit the (x) to close the ad because it was partially off the corner of my screen. I had to reset the app in order to get it to close..Version: 4.5.7
✓ Nice ideas. Colorful. Some don’t work/premiumVery nice graphics and look and options such as heartbeat. Great to use our music as option. 1 the slideshow option doesn’t hold the main picture selected. I sent via text and WhatsApp app and it only shows one frozen picture and no music. I selected the main pic. Several times and the same thing repeated. I noticed that selecting a picture for the main photo that it held other pictures in an outline frame as if also selected. 2. Add a tutorial on features. 3 it wasn’t clear how to keep the edits. I had to go back in several times cause my changes where t saved. Not intuitive. Must select the Done word, but not clear to do that. Very frustrating. 4 allow the names and birthdays to be selected by importing from contacts and to hold them until a card is sent. This what you will know that they are upcoming- like group them into Months ahead of “today”. Be I did buy the premium..Version: 4.5.4
✓ MehDoes what it needs to on a basic level, but could definitely be better. For example, it would be good to have a countdown to a recurring event (payday, for example). Also, the new widget only shows number of days left. I’m doing one countdown which is a couple of years away, and it shows in the widget as 697 days, despite me having it set up in the app as only in months..Version: 4.5.0
✓ Countdown!Good app but a little annoying how you have to rate app and like on Facebook etc. to be able to perform more tasks.Version: 4.0.1
✓ Premium liesNothing wrong with the app but I signed up to Premium and Im still getting ads!!.Version: 4.5.8
✓ DisappointingDownloaded this app a few years ago and really liked using it, setting up a new countdown reminder the pictures they already use weren’t loading so I decided to delete the app and re-install. However having done this their own pictures have all gone there are only a few left and in their place are options to use Facebook photos or your own from the photo library. I liked using the photos that came with the app so I’m disappointed these have now disappeared would like for them to still be available as well as the other options..Version: 4.2.8
✓ •It always glitches.Version: 4.2.5
✓ Doesn’t workDon’t buy waste of time.Version: 4.5.1
✓ Doesn’t look rightI had this app in my 6 plus and it worked fine now I have upgraded to 10 and it doesn’t look right no matter what photo I use it doesn’t align with the words. The words used to be on the pic now they are well above in the black and I can barely see them.Version: 4.3.1
✓ Ok but could be more compatibleI really like this app and lets me avoid doing maths for no reason but tbh I thought that it was going to be a little different than what it is. For starters, I thought I could have more than one and I also thought that it would show on the lock screen. I understand this could be harder to do but maybe you could try and do this???.Version: 4.3.9
✓ Widget not co-operating!The app itself does what it needs to do but I downloaded it in order to have a widget countdown on the Home Screen that I can see alongside my other apps. I even paid the annual subscription for premium in order to do this but it still has a watermark on the widget that says “Get Premium To Unlock”. Disappointed..Version: 4.5.4
✓ NawThe amount of ads is ridiculous. It takes longer to sit thru the ads than it does to set the event. As you can see from the reviews, editing an event isn’t very user friendly as no one knows how to do it. It’s there but clearly not conveniently located. Deleted..Version: 4.4.0
✓ Ok....This app is ok, it’s not bad, but it only lets me make one event then I have to delete it and reinstall it😤 I don’t like how you have can’t share it with anyone and that it gives you only limited options for a background I think we should be able to pick our own background! Also there are weird adds that always show up! LESS ADDS PLEASE!!! and then I once you’ve reached your event it should go on, it should just be over. These things really need to be fixed!!!😩 Other than that the app was pretty good! It wasn’t all that bad but still needs TONES of fixing.Version: 4.2.8
✓ It was greatIt used to be great when I first used it in October-December 2019. You could have multiple countdowns for completely free. Now, you have to pay $6.99 NZD to have multiple countdowns and change the wallpaper..Version: 4.4.6
✓ Gone backwardsHave had this app for years and loved it, but since updating recently it doesn’t show how many days on the app icon. Now I have to open the app to see.... not happy.... It no longer has provision for this in the settings either. Please fix this because that’s what I paid for..Version: 4.3.1
✓ Crashes a lot.Limited background pictures also have to open the app twice as it always crashes the first time..Version: 4.2.1
✓ It is okayIt works well as a countdown but sometimes has glitches. For example, it is sometimes difficult to add a personal picture to the background as it glitches during that. Also, a widget should be included like other countdown apps..Version: 4.5.6
✓ Kinda okOk.Version: 4.2.7
✓ Can’t make more than one count down.☹️Don’t get me wrong. The app is cool. I like the fact that you can select a background related to your countdown topic but the fact that you have to pay a premium fee to make more than ONE countdown. I get that they have to set a limit but ONE! This is a deal breaker. I think that this app is amazing if you only have one thing that you are looking forward to. Most of have more than one vacation or one break or one special event coming up. I strongly recommend that you get a different countdown app because this countdown app only allows one countdown at a time..Version: 4.3.2
✓ Hacked accountMy account was compromised after downloading this app. Never have had this happen in all the years I’ve used this device..Version: 4.4.6
✓ Poor sharingWhen sharing the link to Facebook or to a message it is very poor. It doesn’t play the slideshow and the countdown time is half of the screen. Also can’t see it unless you keep going into the app. Disappointing..Version: 4.5.4
✓ Pretty Av.Well it's a good app other than the fact it says you must do this order to be able to do this but other than that tumeks.Version: 4.0.1
✓ I bought it.I purchased the full version of the app so I could see more events in my widget section of my phone. I do like that aspect but you should make it so the photo also shows in the widget section like the other count down app that has like 60k downloads or at least show the colors that you chose for the font and background of the font. All my events just look the same except different font but just all white with no backgrounds. Kinda of a bummer. Hope this updates soon..Version: 4.3.0
✓ Does what you want but minor inconveniencesThe countdown works but every once in a while it keeps reverting the background image to the default when I have changed it to a custom picture countless times. Rather annoying so I’m getting a different app..Version: 4.4.7
✓ Feeling ripped offPurchased $2.99 upgrade to get rid of ads and they disappeared until I had to update and now they are still there. Contact screen to report it to the company errors every time so you can’t even contact them for help. Tried 7 times and errors out rather than submitting. App tries to force you to turn on location services because the only way to exit that screen is to agree or delete the app. I absolutely do not agree to provide them the ability to monitor my location and they have no need to require. PLENTY of other countdown options. Choose a different one because this one is not recommended..Version: 4.3.8
✓ Purchased with adsI have subscribed to the app for yearly subscription and I still have to go through ads every time I open the app.Version: 4.5.7
✓ UghWe need to pay for a widget! Like that’s the whole point of the app and WE NEED TO PAY! But it is okay for the rest.Version: 4.5.4
✓ This apps countdowns are wrong!I have been using this app for a while now, downloading it and re downloading it again when I have a new event, but the last time I used it the countdown was completely wrong! I have a countdown for the next day at 12 for going to my friends house to have lunch and I was really excited. I put in the day and time and I thought the number was a little high, so I asked Siri how long it was until my date and she said a totally different number. I tried to see if I put the date in wrong but it was right, this app was good at first but has a major bug that effects the whole app so I can’t use it anymore. You can use this app for a little while but don’t trust it completely..Version: 4.4.3
✓ Annoying!I’ve tried to add three dates and all I get is an advert for a game. After that, NOTHING! I’ve tried 15 times to add in my next chemotherapy cycle and it will make me watch the game add, try to make me buy it, then back to the Home Screen! I wanted this one because I like the format of YY/MM/DD but I’ve had just about enough. And no way am I paying a subscription to get rid of ads. A one off payment I will accept but not regular payments!.Version: 4.5.1
✓ ScamI bought the premium for no ad’s but when I open the app there’s still an ad and the slideshow mode didn’t make sense. Thankfully the free trial didn’t end yet so I wasn’t charged yet..Version: 4.5.9
✓ Ad banner across countdownIt’s a free app, I get it. But there is a giant add banner right across the number that won’t go away so I can’t even see the countdown number..Version: 4.5.4
