How Long Left helps you manage your time by displaying a countdown for your current and upcoming calendar events in the menu bar. You can easily configure which events are shown in the status item, and quickly access a summary of your upcoming events by simply clicking. The app also includes a range of extra features, including: - The ability to quickly access information about your current and upcoming events. - A Widget (Requires macOS 11.0+ and an in-app purchase) - Time based event notifications, customizable with an in-app purchase. ...plus much more, that, honestly, I just can't be bothered to write a description for right now.

Ratings & Reviews

This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Its good for what it does, but it doesn’t do what I want.

Expect support
The name is “How Long Left" and that’s exactly what it shows and its free, so I can’t complain. I was hoping it could show "How Long Until” so I could easily see how long until my next event, but it doesn’t do that. Perhaps an upgrade could add that capability.

Developer Response
Yes, you're right. The main functionality of the app is to count down how long left. But the latest update has added the ability to show a countdown to the next upcoming calendar event in the status item – for now only as long as it starts within the next week. Current events are still prioritized by default, but you can disable this in Preferences.

Just what I wanted, done exactly how I'd hoped

The name could not explain it better. Does exactly what I wanted it to do, does it quietly in the menu bar, and the iOS version does it nicely on the phone and magnificently on the watch as well. When there are no events currently ongoing, it shows a countdown to what's up next. Perfect for focusing on one event at a time.Importantly, it also doesn't do more than it needs to just for the sake of doing it. I wish more apps stayed focused on their objective like this one does. Too many programs want to be your entire productivity suite when I all need is a nice little app that counts down some time like this one does.Plus the developer seems very nice .(I've never met him but his update notes are quite friendly.) Thank you Ryan!

Another update: Now shows upcoming events in the menu. This is hands down the most useful little menu app. The devloper is amazing. Highly recommend this app if you rely on your calendar heavily.Update from previous review:I can't believe how quickly the ability to select certain calendars came to the app! It's now absolutely what I've been looking for!Previous review:There is no way to select particular calendars. You can only choose to show all your calendars or just one. I have multiple calendars for different jobs. Plus I have a personal calendar and my wife's calendar. So as much as I've been looking for something like this, I just can't use it until there's an ability to select certain calendars. It's not helpful for me to see my wife's calendar instead of my calendar. Overall, it's a great little app if that little issue doesn't affect you.

Developer Response
Sorry for the late reply Anthony, but no problem. I'd honestly wanted to add support for multiple calendars from the start. I'd tried a few times, but adding in a table/list-view was slightly too difficult for me. I saw your review and just decided I had to figure it out somehow, and I guess I did!
Amazing!!!

I love the ability to see the timer on the menu bar and widget section. You also have a pop out window. Would love it if you allowed the pop out window the same functionality you gave the widgets. If we could hide the dock icon that would be a great enhacement. i sent a google help email. if you dont see this than hopefully i get a reply that way. Thanks again !
