Best Countdown App For Upcoming Deadlines

Need a countdown app to quickly see how many days are left until big events (launches, deadlines, goals)?? I’ve been loving the Big Day app. I use its widget to quickly see how many days I have until upcoming events and deadlines and it helps keep me on track.

Here’s how it works:

The Big Day App

First you’ll need to set up each individual event or date you want to count down to. To do so, tap on the app screen and then tap on the plus sign icon. A new countdown screen will open up.

Tap on the Settings icon to edit your new countdown event.

Untoggle “Use Default Image” if you’d like to add a photo from one of your photo albums.

Change the title, date, and theme however you’d like to.

The theme refers to your countdown boxes and you have two simple options – black or white. You can always press on the countdown box later to change it to the opposite color.

If you tap the List icon, you can see all of your “big days” at a glance.

Now, how do you add the Big Day app widget to your widget screen (which is accessed simply by swiping to the right when on your home screen)?

Once you’ve swiped right to access your widget page, scroll all the way down. Tap the edit button. Then scroll down and tap the green plus sign beside the Big Day app. It will now show up on your widget screen (and anything else you tap on that screen).

I’ve got a video tutorial for you here as well on just how to set up this countdown app.

So what do you think? Could you find this countdown app helpful for staying mindful of upcoming events, goal deadlines, launches, etc.? Do you have an app that you love that serves the same purpose? If yes, can you direct message me at Instagram? I do better responding there than here at this post.
