Better than most
I really like this app especially since it comes with the widget which was primarily why I downloaded it. It’s simple and easy to use. I like that you can have multiple this app as mine are a count down until my closing day on my house, Christmas, and New Years. Most of the icons are odd icons for a countdown, but I wish some were more holiday oriented like for Christmas perhaps a Santa or a tree not just a present. I like your not bombarded with ads. Most apps you click on one thing and BOOM 30 second ad you have to watch but this app seems to be pretty good about that. Overall I love the app and will continue to use it!

Best of the bunch
Most of these countdown apps are ugly, lack important features like cloud sync and widgets, or both. This one has a clean interface, decent customization options, cloud sync (paid version) and a widget, which is the most important 90% of what I want. Wish list: dark mode and the ability to assign solid color backgrounds to events and/or the event icon. Also would prefer a couple-bucks/year subscription model to the one-off purchase because then I have more confidence that the app will continue to be updated. Maybe add a premium level with addtl features for subscribers?

Best Countdown
I used to be in love with another countdown from a developer that no longer has the app out and for the life of me, I cannot seem to transfer that app over to my new devices. After countless of hours of trying to find a simple yet effective app, this did the job! I paid the extra dollar to remove ads even though it didn't really bother me but I figure it helps the developer in some way to maybe add a few features like changing the font or color of each background. Either way, best countdown out there.
