Countdown by timeanddate.com 4+

Locations are minimal

Since the only way to list a location is through their picker from their list this app doesn't work for me. If I could simply edit the text not having to tie it to a real list then it would be useful.

Dev replied asking if two stars is harsh. The app doesn't function for me because there's too few locations. Should I give a non functional app four stars? That makes your product usable by only a select few, and maybe if you listed that people wouldn't bother downloading in the first place. Fix that and then we'll talk.

Thanks for your input. Adding an alias for locations is something we are looking in to, however, a two-star review for this lack of functionality is harsh.

Good but could be better

App looks great and for personal use it’s great but ... My girlfriend and I life a few hours drive from each other so realistically we can only see each other 1-2 time a month. We’ve been using your guys website to share countdowns with each other till our next meeting. I only just discovered the IOS app and am very happy with the superior viewing experience compared to the lest than mobile friendly website. However the app has no support for sharing countdowns. So if try try to send her a countdown I created she can only view it in a web browser. If there was a feature that would allow you to open other peoples countdowns in the app (via link) rather than manually copying it into the app it would seriously enhance the experience. I think you guys are missing out on a very marketable feature. Since the app seems to be an enhanced web browser specifically for your guys website doesn’t seem like it would be too difficult to pull off. We live in a world of social media and creating an app where you could share countdowns and share events like this would be popular. I like what you guys are doing I just think it could be better.

What can i say except.. (hint: NOT your welcome)

This app isn’t downloading for me, ok? I know it’s not the apps fault my phones being real crappy right now. But I feel that all the people giving this app 1 star, that’s just insane.
Ok, maybe that one where the feature didn’t work when they bought the features, that’s probably ok. But there was this one that talked about not being able to share when they upgraded, the developer said they didn’t advertise the feature and it doesn’t exist. This review is to balance out the reviews a bit and this is probably unnecessarily long.

Edit: no my data was just being crappy XD it downloaded eventually but thanks!

Sorry to hear that it isn't downloading, however, that is something only Apple support can help you with. Thank you for your attempt to balance the negative reviews - we appreciate getting good feedback too.
