I looked at several countdown apps, and most were very limited... often loaded with ads or limited to a premium purchase for full functionality. While there is a premium version of this app, it is more extras and not limiting the basic fixings of the app. I may consider the premium version if I find interest in it. Until them, I am happy that I can get the basics I am looking for in the base app. It's definitely the best countdown app i have found.

Does exactly what I need it to do: count up, or down, to a specific date. In my case I wanted to keep track of paydays, which it does flawlessly thanks to the ability to set a countdown that automatically resets when the target date is reached. It's a useful, simple app!

Getting closer to what you're looking for compared to that garbage that appears at the top of Google's sponsored listings. Only complaint with this app is when selecting a date, you can't manually type in a date. You're forced to scroll in the calendar by one month at a time ~ was going to do a count-up from my birthday just for fun until I realized I would have to click the back button on the calendar 569 times.

Hi Ted, thanks for your review! The app uses Android's built-in date-picker, but I totally agree that it's very confusing for years. If you tap the year at the top of the date picker, it'll change to a year picker. Once you've selected the year, you can then select the date. Hopefully that will save a few taps! - Gary
