Dwindy: Countdown Widget

Days since or days until anything, as a widget, shareable as a card.

Productivity

Who it's for

Someone counting down to a date that matters, or up from one.

The problem

A date that matters

A wedding, a trip, a milestone, held only in memory.

Out of sight until it arrives

Nothing on the home screen keeps it in view.

A date worth counting toward sits out of sight, with nothing on the home screen to keep it in view.

From trigger to relief

Pick a date

Since it happened, or until it does.

Pin it to the home screen

A widget shows the count without opening the app.

Read it in days, weeks, months or years

The same date, on whichever scale matters today.

Share it as a card

Computed fresh each time the widget draws, so it is never stale.

Four steps from picking a date to sharing its count as a card, with the number recomputed fresh every time the widget draws.
