Oh my goodness. Absolutely love this widget. Not only does it counts down to an event but it also counts days/weeks etc. from an event if you backdate your event. Wish their were a few more icons to choose from but that's something minor and doesn't detract from the usefulness of the widget.

Need am and pm on the clock so the countdown will be accurate . and the days change but the hours and minutes won't change on my android without opening the app each time. Please fix then 5 stars

Beautiful, but the widget needs resizing to refresh, otherwise it stops for days.

This rating would be 5 stars. I've found the features to be very useful. The only downside is the fact that there is no way to distinguish between x:00 P.M. and x:00 P.M.

I only wish it had a way to count up, not just down; ie, days since quitting smoking.

Doesn't update the timer on a daily basis, I have to click to so it updates. Please fix.

Doesn't work. Wasn't counting down, stayed at the same day for 3 days and constantly force closes. Uninstalling.

The time on the screen stays frozen. I have to open the widget menu everytime and press the tick to get it to update.

Love this app! I just hope there will be more icons in the future since after a few years of use, it would be nice for a lot of newer ones

Wanted a countdown widget that would do count by weeks. Does all that & more. Simple and intuitive. This is a widget not a "program" app. Follow instructions.

Only drawback I find is that when choosing a icon for the timer it is very hard to see them as they are so small. Would be nice if they were larger or I can control the zoom of it. Aside from that the app is perfect.

Amazing, friendly response to feedback! I love this app so much. It does all I need and no overloaded fluff. And, developer keeps adding icons and other small tweaks. Awesome :) Thank you! Edit: OMG STAR WARS ICONS YES!!!!

I love this app. I have to go long stretches without seeing my family and always have a countdown until the next time I see them. I like taking screenshots to send them when I reach milestones in the countdown. The only negative thing I have noticed is that there isn't an icon that fits my second count down. I am planning a trip to Disneyland and there are no icons of castles or crowns.

Good. A second date after the first event would be an improvement.
