1. 4/5Love this app! But i have a few questions.

   I use this app for all of my dates and when things are due for school, but why do i have to pay for the widgets? I feel like it’s unnecessary to pay for them. So many other apps have free widgets, so i was kind of really hoping that this app would too. I’m trying to keep track of all my things that are due and when my boyfriend and I’s anniversarys are because i cannot remember a thing off the top of my head but could we try and have free widgets please? It would be so much better for the company and people would use your app more and more if it had more free stuff. It’s also a hassle trying to find your app in my phone so i can find what date is when and what’s due what day. I rather just be able to see when i get on my screen “Oh i have 3 more days to turn in this essay” or “ oh 7 more days till my boyfriend and I have been together for a year”. But overall this app is really nice but could use some work. Please and Thanm you for your time -Coraline

2. 1/5Doesn't Work

   I purchased the premium app so that I could add my own music and photos. Everything worked fine until it came time to share the countdown. When I share to FB or message or email it is just showing one photo, no song. I have tried everything and still not working. I have sent an email to support and have gotten no response. I paid for this?? UNINSTALLED I have contacted Apple and put in a request for a refund. There is no reason on earth to pay a premium for the ability to add your own images and your own music only to find out that you can't share your custom countdown by text, email or social media. It only provides you with a link that gives a logo graphic from developer and when you click on the link, it is only one of your 10 allowed photos and no sound. I appreciate that the developer answered my email but there seems to be no solution offered. All the reviews that complain of the sharing issue go pretty far back and yet nothing has improved.

3. 3/5Do not purchase if you want to share your Countdowns

   Can’t give this app more than three stars without the ability to share my Countdown. I have an important event coming up next year, one that is particularly special for me and a friend; I poured a couple hours into creating a dynamic countdown, with personalized music and a slideshow containing dozens of edited photographs. I would not have spent so much time if I had known sharing my work with others, a feature that commonly comes with other (free) countdown apps, is not possible with this one. What a bummer. You guys have done so many other things right; but none of it matters if can’t share your creation with other people. A person typically starts a countdown for an important event in their life, something they want to share with others; it’s such a fundamental feature on an app like this, I really am shocked you have not prioritized this fix above all else. Please update your app with sharing capabilities and I will update my review to five stars.

4. 4/5Not in my Notifications on iPhone

   I can’t get the badge/countdown icon to work. (I bought the upgrade for that feature). I think it’s because the app doesn’t appear in my Settings-Notifications. I’ve closed the app, deleted and reinstalled 10 times. Anyone else had this problem and fixed it? Customer support has been good about responding but hasn’t been able to fix it. Maybe it’s time to give up and ask for a refund. UPDATE 3/9/18 I upgraded to 4 stars because I finally got the badge icon to work. The only thing I might have done differently is I made sure to CLOSE the app before I deleted and reinstalled it. So it works now. Strange though because when I open the app the countdown says one number and the number on the icon is one less than that. But I’ll take it. The customer service people have been responsive.

5. 3/5The Song You Set Will Play Without Opening The App?

   I’m not sure if it’s a feature of the app, but I HATE that whatever song you set for an event, it’ll play without opening the app. It’s NOT playing from your ITunes playlist or anything it just plays at random times!!?? For example, I made a countdown till Christmas and set “I’ll be home for Christmas” to play when I open the app for the countdown till Christmas. Somehow, whatever countdown it’s on (in particular the Christmas one) the stupid song will play whenever it feels like it! I’ll be in the car driving and all of a sudden “I’ll be home for Christmas” will just play! Sometimes multiple times a day. I don’t understand this? This NEVER happened before I installed the app! I also have a new phone! What the heck? Well I like the app besides this weird glitch. Without it, it would be better. It’s not so great when the theme song to Halloween goes off at 1am for your countdown till Halloween.
