Put the countdown on your Home Screen
A countdown you have to open an app to see is a countdown you forget. With Countdown Widget: Any Event you add the date once and it sits on the Home Screen or Lock Screen as a widget — every widget size is free, events are unlimited, and it can remind you on the day and as far ahead as you like.
- Install the app and tap +. Pick the template or type the name.
- If you typed the name yourself, set the date to Friday, January 1, 2027. Turn on Repeat yearly if you want it back next year.
- Long-press the Home Screen → Edit → Add Widget (on iOS 17, tap +) → Countdown. Choose the size you like.
