Until: Countdown Widgets
By Micro App Digital
About this app
The concert. The trip. The last exam. Whatever you're waiting for, Until puts it right on your home screen — countdown widgets in styles from bold ink to candy to a photo of the place itself. Make as many as you want: every event, every widget style, yearly repeats for birthdays and “since” counters for the days you want to keep. And when the waiting finally ends, Until doesn't skip past it — at zero the widget flips to IT'S TODAY, the day gets its moment, and afterwards it can become a memory. Anticipation is a feeling. This is its home.
Features
Every Widget Style, Included
- Six styles — Ink, Candy, Photo, Minimal, Serif Poster and Ticket — with twelve colour themes, all included.
- Your soonest moment, always: if a widget ever loses its event it shows the next one coming instead of going blank.
Both Directions Of Time
- Count down to what's ahead, and count up from what mattered — “412 days since we adopted Miso”.
- A countdown can become a “since” counter whenever you like. Neither is a mode; they are equal citizens.
The Day Itself, Celebrated
- At zero your event doesn't vanish. It becomes IT'S TODAY, in its own colours, in the app and on your widgets.
- Afterwards you choose what it becomes: keep counting, keep the memory, or repeat next year. Nothing is ever deleted for you.
The Count Is Never Wrong
- Days are counted as calendar days, not as blocks of 24 hours — so daylight saving, leap years and the date line can't push a number off by one.
- Repeats are documented and tested: a 29 February birthday lands on the 28th in a common year and returns to the 29th in the next leap year, and a monthly on the 31st clamps without ever drifting.
Quiet By Default
- Milestone reminders at 100, 30, 7 and 1 days are off unless you turn them on, per event.
- Notification permission is asked the first time you switch one on — never at launch.
Never Between You And Your Moment
- Creating an event, its detail screen, the day itself and the widget gallery carry no advertising of any kind.
- On any day one of your moments arrives, the whole app is ad-free.
Yours, And Private
- Everything is stored on your device. There is no account, no sync and no server, and it works offline.
- Photos come through your phone's own picker, so the app never sees your library.
