Countdown widget for iPhone

A countdown widget that lives on your note

Add the Countdown tool to any WidgetNote note, pick a date, and your Home Screen shows how many days are left — for a trip, a birthday, an exam, or the holidays.

Updates by itself every day. Pair it with any template.

Days-until countdowns on a note widget.

Why put a countdown on a note?

Single-purpose countdown apps show a number. A WidgetNote countdown sits inside a note, so you can add the details that matter — the flight time, what to pack, the gift list — and style it with a seasonal template. It is one widget instead of three.
