Days Reviews

I have used Days for a few years now and I really liked it, up until a few months ago when it has been running ads for bundling other apps in its development group. It is very annoying. Also I don’t care that it collects my data. I am going to another app that doesn’t take and use my data for its selfish ends. So disappointing

Every time you open Days it suggests you pay for a subscription called “the growth bundle” with a timer showing how long the deal is taking place. No matter how many times you dismiss this it continues to return and the timer resets again. I’d be fine paying a one time fee for Days but I do not understand why you have to constantly badger the user with a subscription.

I love Days for its simplicity. But the recent change to need to pay for a $15/year subscription in order to change the theme of Days or the icon seems a little bit excessive.

Even if there was a one time charge of one or two dollars to gain access to that feature I would pay for it. But I don’t need or want the any of the other apps in the bundle. And looks like a lot of other reviewers agree.

Keep in mind, this is not about complaining about having to pay for apps or subscriptions. I have paid over $500 over the years for individual app purchases and subscriptions. I have no problem rewarding developers for their hard work and creativity.

I just want to be able to use this simple app without having to join the annual subscription. At least give us the option of tipping the developer instead.

So Reflectly is on a crusade to get the rights to every habit or sobriety or mindfulness app so they can have a monopoly. And small app developers are happily selling their rights. Habit, this app, and many more are going from being free or affordable apps to costing 60 USD a year. Apple is apparently fine with this. Long story short, I’m going back to a paper calendar because I’m sick of getting apps only to have basic features locked out and then charged for. I suggest you do too.

I’ve had this on my phone now for 846 this app tracking my sobriety. 5 stars based on the fact that all I wanted was an app that counted this app and nothing more. A huge plus and the reason I stuck with Days is because it has the widget for iPhone so I don’t even have to open anything to see my progress, just scroll to my widget screen and it’s right at the top which I love!! So if you want something basic and free this is perfect. I gave it 3 stars because since I first got Days, they have continued to go up in price for extra features and only seem to care about nickel and dimming people, not their actual sobriety. I wanted to add another tracker and I can’t without paying some stupid amount, sad what was originally affordable and truly helpful is now about greed and taking more money from people. Maybe a compromise would be to have tiers of payment so if you just need an extra tracker or want to change the theme you don’t have to pay for everything.

This isn’t a review on Days , exactly but I’ve just downloaded it and completely accidentally had my thumb just barely on the button on my iPad and paid the $15. I didn’t even get a chance to read what I was paying for and still don’t know. I’ve had Days in the past, briefly and don’t know what it is I’ve paid for today. Days seems pretty basic and straight forward. Oh well. I’ve turned off the auto-renew at least

You had a nice little app that did nothing but count this app. You could change the theme from light to dark. Perfect. It needed nothing else.

Now you’ve added a bunch of features behind a paywall - that’s fine. But you’re seriously nickel-and-dimeing me on the light/dark theme? Why is that simple feature behind a paywall?

I just want an app that counts this app and can be switched from the super bright white layout to the nice dark one.

I like how this is so easy and straightforward. I use it for all kinds of things. Like I’m doing a 12 day cleanse and this helps me track how many this app. That helps me stay on track. My boyfriend travels so I use this to track how many this app till he’s home. I originally downloaded it to quit smoking. But now I use it for tracking all sorts of things.

This is just what I was looking for. I have a new iPhone 12 and there is no widget?? I really wanted that. Any suggestions? Also if you could add minutes and seconds and the ability to put your own background picture then it would be perfect.

I like the way that is very simple and clean app. No adds!! I use this for my this app not drinking alcohol and it helps seeing the number growing. I wish if they can add at least two more this app counting. I will love to add no smoke this app on the same app. I have a diferent app but I prefer this one.

Very easy and simple, let’s you set your sober date down to the minute, also before you reset this app it asks you if you’re sure which I appreciate, whether you you hit reset by accident or need an extra moment to reflect. Best sober counter app!!!

This is a simple app without the fuss to track this app sober. I like it because it’s discreet and can be put on your Today Screen so you don’t have to open Days . Tomáš, Days creator, is very helpful and quick to reply should you have any questions. He specifically helped me set up the Wegit to appear on my iPhone. Thanks again!

This day counter is very useful in it’s simplicity. I wish, however, one could pay a few dollars to get rid of the ad that always pops up trying to sell the “growth bundle.” No, I don’t want to buy that.

It’s a clean and quick way to see your numbers of this app (or other increments of time). Many times, I’m somewhere someone asks how many this app I have and I can’t remember. I tap the icon and boom, it pops up. I wish the number was displayed on Days so you didn’t even have to look open it but maybe there is a widget and I just did figure it out yet. Still, I’ve used other sobriety apps and they were annoying and too many steps to do random stuff. I’m keeping this one.

i teally didnt know if i could keep it up but ive been 21 this app sober off of weed so far and i feel reallly really good. ive been smoking weed almost everyday since the 7th grade. im in my sophmore year of college and have a drug test soon for a job so i just feel more connected w the real world. i know weed isnt exactly bad for you but for someone who hasnt lived a real life since 7th grade, its a start of feeling something different. i may not be in the best of moods but i know i can keep it up. Days has helped me keep count and whenever i look at how many this app i been off it i feel decent ab myself. -fb

Being able to watch the number tick higher with each passing day inspires me to keep going. If I feel the temptation to give in and fail, I can just go to my this app app and see how far I’ve come. Sometimes, I look a few times per day.

When I hit 1 year, I will likely buy myself a coin similar to an AA token. I know this simple app will help me get there. 😊

Days helped me track my celibacy after a really bad breakup. I am going to keep using it but I’ve switched to an app that will now add it the removal of medication from my life and Days has no way to track more than one thing. If I can, please let me know. I love how simple it is and it was good to see the number increase.

Thank your for taking the time to create this.

I like Days because it isn’t cluttered or bloated. I wanted a clean time counter, and that’s what this does—period. It’s quite powerful to see the very simple black text against a white background. I’m an NA member, so the one thing I wish was that the user could customize Days ’s icon. This one comes with a default AA triangle. It would be cool if NA members could customize it to display a circle/diamond shape. Thank you, Tomas Vitek, for such an attractive, useful app!

I wanted an app that simply displayed my this app sober and this one does just that. There are tons of apps that have many other features such as a social media aspect, quotes and other bells and whistles but this one simply shows this app and that is what makes it awesome. I sure hope it stays that way as that is what sets it apart.

Also, when I emailed the developer he immediately got back to me which in my experience is very rare.

Awesome app!

The only option I would suggest is potentially adding a second counter. I’m personally tryingto quit two different things in my life and one app to count both would be ideal. Other than that, Days works great so far!
