Countdowns

A countdown app built into your calendar

In Miracal you pin any event, task or birthday as a countdown – “Vacation in 1 week” then sits at the top of your calendar, and the Countdown widget shows it on your home screen. Free, and nothing extra to maintain.

Details & how-to

How do I create a countdown?

Open an event, task or birthday and pin it as a countdown. It appears as a card at the top of your calendar and shows how many days are left. You can pin several at once – the vacation, the exam and the next birthday.

What happens when the day has passed?

Countdowns clean up after themselves: past events and completed tasks leave the countdown row automatically.

Is it free?

Yes, countdowns are part of the free version. Without the app you can use the online countdown timer or the birthday countdown.

Ideas for countdowns
  • Vacation, a trip or a festival
  • Exams, a thesis deadline or the first day at a new job
  • A wedding, a birth or moving day
  • The birthday of someone close
  • A task with a deadline – it disappears once you tick it off

Yes. Add the Countdown widget (small, medium or large): it shows the events, tasks and birthdays you've pinned, each with the days left. On iPhone, touch and hold the home screen, tap “Edit” → “Add Widget” and search for Miracal.
