Countdown Widget & Counter 4+

Hello devs! I have to say, this app is AWESOME! I’ve used it to count down to TONS of events so far, and it’s worked great! However, the Live Countdown widget has stopped working on my iPad. I’ve tried deleting the widget and re-adding it to the Home Screen, switching the selected countdown around, and even making a new one in the app in the hopes that it’d fix the problem, but no luck. I’m using an iPad Pro 10.5 inch (model number MPHK2LL/A) running iOS 16.6, if that helps. Having the live countdown isn’t critical for me, but it would be nice to have it again on my Home Screen, so if you guys could take a look and get it fixed, that would be great, thank you!

I was excited about this app. I test drove several and I thought this looked the best. It was almost exactly what I wanted until I got to the final day of my first countdown.

When it gets to one day away, it switches from counting down days to counting down hours. Then it switches back to days when it gets to zero.

I want it to say the event is 1 day away until it’s midnight of the day that it’s happening. Then, on the day of the event, the countdown would be zero.

What actually happens:

Let’s say I’m counting down to a trip that’s January 10th.

Starting at midnight on January 9, the countdown shifts from increments of days to 24 hours.

But I’m not leaving at midnight on the 10th. And seeing the hours tick off kinda stresses me out and makes it feel more imminent than it really is.

If I change the countdown setting to the exact time that my flight is leaving, then the Countdown will say it’s two days away because it’s more than 24 hours. And that doesn’t feel right to me because it is *tomorrow.*

While some people may want this, I think there should be an option to just have it go from one day away to 0 days away instead of switching to an hourly countdown.

Is a mentioned above, I love the app, and I use it for work. I’m able to put my deadlines in for my next submittal to my clients. However, it appears as though sometimes the widget on my home screen does not display all of the up-and-coming deadlines. The widget shows “no event set” when I definitely have events set. I’m running the newest iPad 12.9 inch with M2 and the latest ipad OS (16.6). this problem has been happening to me off and on for some time(about two months). The only fix I found for this which only works sometimes is to restart the iPad. I will be happy to change my 4 star to a 5 star when resolved. Keep on rocking the stellar productivity apps, and that’s when I am all about. :)
