Exam Countdown - School & Uni 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. iPhone 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.

Latest updates
5.8
iOS 27 Ready! A bigger widget, and a round of fixes for the Home Screen.
• New: the Upcoming Exams widget, formerly Next 4 Exams, now comes in an extra-large size that shows up to eight exams at once. Find it on iPad, and on iPhone with iOS 27. Widgets already on your Home Screen keep working.
• Exam alerts now stay in Notification Centre until you clear them. Opening the app used to remove them, so it could look as though they never arrived.
• A new Enable Alerts switch in Settings lets you turn exam alerts on at any time, even if you skipped them when you first set up the app.
• Widgets could show as a blank white rectangle when the Home Screen was set to Clear or Tinted. They now follow whichever look you have chosen, and the Live Countdown widget keeps its icon artwork.
• An exam someone shared with you can no longer be edited by accident. Only the person who created it can make changes.
• On iOS 27, close buttons show an X again instead of a square, and the category title at the top of your exam list stays readable.
• Filtering by a category with nothing in it now offers "Show All Exams", in every language.
Thank you to everyone who wrote in about the blank widgets. That is how this one was found.
