Until: Countdown Widgets

Until is a countdown app with home screen widgets.

Add a date — a concert, a trip, an exam, a birthday, a wedding — and Until shows how many days are left, both in the app and on a widget you place on your home screen. It also counts the other way: pick a date in the past and Until shows how many days it has been since.

HOW IT WORKS

1. Tap New, type what you're waiting for, and pick a date. That's the whole setup.

2. Choose a colour and, if you like, an emoji or a photo.

3. Open the widget gallery and place a widget on your home screen.

4. Tap the widget any time to jump straight back to that event.

HOME SCREEN WIDGETS

• Six widget designs: Ink, Candy, Photo, Minimal, Serif Poster and Ticket

• Twelve colour themes to match the event

• The widget updates every day so the number stays correct

• If a widget's event is removed, it shows your next upcoming event instead of going blank

COUNT DOWN, OR COUNT SINCE

• Countdown mode shows the days remaining until a future date

• Since mode counts the days elapsed from a past date, such as "412 days since we adopted Miso"

• You can switch an event between the two at any time

WHEN THE DAY ARRIVES

• On the day itself, the event reads IT'S TODAY in the app and on your widgets, instead of disappearing from your list

• Afterwards you choose what happens to it: keep counting the days since, save it to your archive as a keepsake card, or repeat it next year

REPEATS AND REMINDERS

• Repeat an event yearly, monthly or weekly — a birthday sets itself up again each year

• Optional reminders at 100, 30, 7 and 1 days before the date

• Reminders are off unless you turn them on, one event at a time

ALSO INCLUDED

• Search across upcoming events, since counters and your archive

• An archive of past events showing how long you waited for each one

• Light, dark (Night Ink) and AMOLED themes

• Works offline, with no account and no sign-in

• Your events and photos are stored on your device only

Until does not require an account and does not sync to any server.
