Some dates deserve more than a calendar entry.
Countdown turns the moments you can't wait for into living, glowing timers with a proper celebration when they finally arrive.
BACKGROUNDS THAT GET IT
• The background matches your event: type "Ibiza Trip" and the app finds real imagery of the place, tinted by its live time of day.
• Or pick any photo from your library.
• Hand-tuned themes: Aurora, Sunset, Neon Noir, Midnight Gold and more.
COUNT EVERY SECOND
• Glowing progress ring with days, hours, minutes, seconds.
• The last 10 seconds go full-screen cinematic with a haptic heartbeat.
• Confetti storm and celebration screen at zero.
• Anticipation stats: sleeps left, weekends left, how far you've come.
EVERYWHERE YOU LOOK
• Home screen widgets in three styles: Ring, Flip Clock, Minimal.
• Live Activity in the Dynamic Island for the final 24 hours.
• Ambient nightstand mode.
• Notifications at the moment itself, plus halfway, 30-day, 1-week and 1-day milestones.
SHARED MOMENTS
• Share a countdown via iCloud and count down together.
• See the moment across world time zones.
• Finished countdowns become keepsakes: add photos, count the days since.
QUICK TO ADD
• Siri: "Add a countdown"
• Import straight from your calendar
• Paste any text, "flight to Lisbon Aug 14 6am" becomes a countdown.
