Countdown Star downloads
Worldwide, per day, and installs to date. The band is open; the exact number is free with an account.
How this is calculated
Apple publishes no download counts. App Store downloads come from chart positions and daily rating growth per country, calibrated on Google Play install counts; lifetime installs from ratings worldwide × installs per rating. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.
Active users
All platforms, worldwide. Free with an account.
Stickiness (DAU / MAU)
how many monthly users open it on a given day
How this is calculated
Monthly users come from lifetime installs across every store, fitted on monthly active user figures companies publish; daily users = monthly × the typical daily/monthly ratio for the category. Confidence is the chance the real number is within half to double ours.
In-app revenue
Worldwide, what users spend in Countdown Star before Apple and Google take their fee.
How this is calculated
Not on any Top Grossing chart: monthly active users × spend per user for its category, measured on the charted apps nearest the bottom of the charts.

App Store ratings in the countries we track, 4-week average.
Review momentum (0-100) blends how fast the app collects ratings compared with other apps in its category (60%), whether that pace is speeding up (25%) and what recent raters give it (15%; recent stars well below lifetime pull it down). Ratings counts are read daily. A jump usually means a launch, a feature, ads or a new review prompt.
About Countdown Star
Countdown Star is the best way to countdown to — and count up from — all of your favourite events.
Countdown to birthdays, holidays, an upcoming trip, a wedding, the New Year, parties, sporting events, concerts and more.
Count up from anniversaries, the day you were born, and other special events in the past.
* How many seconds until your next birthday?
* How many months since you were born?
* How many days until you graduate from university?
* How many hours until your anniversary?
* How much time is left until your trip starts?
* How many days until Christmas?
* How many minutes until your party begins?
* How much time is left until your baby's due date?
Countdown Star is the countdown app that lets you choose which events to add, then keeps them in sync across all of your devices.
Features:
* iCloud Sync — events and wallpapers sync automatically across all your iPhone, iPad, and Apple Watch devices
* Celebration Animations — choose Confetti, Fireworks, Balloons, Stars, or Lasers when your countdown reaches zero
* Repeating Events — annual events automatically advance to the next year so you never have to update them
* Home Screen Widgets — Small, Medium, and Large widgets let you glance at your countdowns without opening the app
* Compatible with iPhone Duo — Countdown Star fits the outer and inner displays, open or closed, and when partially open like a book
* Apple Watch — view your events right on your wrist
* Add Your Own Events — add as many events as you like
* Custom Wallpapers — choose from 15+ built-in wallpapers or use your own photos
* Time Zone Support — set each event in any time zone with localised city names
* Sort and Search — sort by date, title, or your own custom order; events are sectioned into Countdown and Count Up groups
* Favourites and Notifications — mark events as favourites to receive a notification when their countdown reaches zero
* Interactive Slider — instantly switch between seconds, minutes, hours, days, weeks, months, or years to see your countdown exactly how you want it
* Customisable Timer — choose timer position (Top, Middle, or Bottom), show or hide weeks, and toggle the leading zero
* Multiple App Icons — personalise the app icon on your Home Screen
Note: Countdown Star is available as a free version (with ads and an optional Remove Ads purchase) and as a paid ad-free version.
