CountAway

Count days to or from dates with local home-screen widgets
New in version 1.2.3
Share event cards directly from the Home screen's three-dot menu. Language selection uses a shared catalog for English, Español, and Català. About links open the website and privacy policy.
CountAway keeps important dates simple and visible on your home screen.

Create multiple local events and choose whether each one counts down to a future date or counts up from a start date. Pick an event type or custom icon and add compact or resizable widgets. Fixed widgets support both count directions, while Next countdown automatically follows your nearest upcoming count-down event.

Count-down events can optionally repeat weekly, monthly, or yearly. Monthly dates keep their original day when possible and use the last valid day in shorter months. Optional local reminders can alert you on the event day or 1, 3, or 7 days before.

Share an event as a local image card, export or restore your events with a JSON backup, and switch explicitly between English, Español, and Català or follow the system language.

Everything stays on your device. No accounts, ads, analytics, cloud synchronization, or Internet permission.

Versions

Although APK downloads are available below to give you the choice, you should be aware that by installing that way you will not receive update notifications and it's a less secure way to download. We recommend that you install the F-Droid client and use that.

  • New in version 1.2.2
    Count days in both directions: count down to a future date or count up from a start date. Home cards are cleaner and easier to scan, with clearer groups, more room for titles, and polished event actions. Language switching is explicit, widget pinning is more reliable, and existing data migrates automatically.

  • New in version 1.2.1
    A small widget fix: narrow, tall widgets use their available space for wrapped titles and event icons again. The preview follows the same layout, and counts stay legible with larger text. No new features or permissions; your countdowns and backups keep working as before.
