An editorial reading of the saved reviews

A simple and reliable countdown timer for events with repeating reminders. Custom time display formats are a strength, down to seconds and weeks simultaneously. One consistent problem: some users find notifications never sound at all, and a deleted countdown keeps going off.

What users experience

1 excerpt from the breakdown. These are individual cases, not a verdict on all users.

I spent a lot of time entering birthday's and not once have I ever been alerted. If it's something I'm doing wrong, then this app is designed poorly or the set up is not very clear on the instructions.
