Days to Christmas: Countdown

Sleeps Widget, Santa Tracker

Free · In‑App Purchases

Count the sleeps over a photograph of a real tree — or your own. A free sensory Advent, Santa's flight on Christmas Eve, and a letter he writes back. Days to Christmas is the cozy, calm way to count the sleeps — and to make every day of December a little sensory adventure. SENSORY ADVENT CALENDAR — FREE Behind each of the 24 doors is a simple activity for one of the senses: crunch fake snow, jingle bells, smell a clove orange, taste a candy cane, blow bubbles by the tree lights. Made with autistic and sensory-seeking children in mind, but every family loves them. Nothing to buy — every door is free, and a gentle daily reminder tells you when tonight's door is ready. SANTA TRACKER & LETTERS TO SANTA See where Santa is on Christmas Eve — and, before that, how far the North Pole is from your country and what time he'll reach you (around 10 p.m., so be asleep). The workshop sends a daily report as the sleeps run down, you can replay the whole flight around the world, and children can write a letter to Santa by speaking or typing it. A few hours later, Santa writes back by hand — and the app can read his letter aloud. SANTA'S GLOBE, IN YOUR ROOM Put the world on your table and watch the sleigh fly the route, stop by stop, in augmented reality on iPhone and iPad — or as a globe you can spin with your hands on Apple Vision Pro. SELFIE WITH SANTA Pop a Santa hat, beard, glasses or reindeer antlers on everyone in the picture, stand Santa beside you, and share the photo. Faces are found on your device, and nothing is uploaded — the picture only exists if you save or share it.

Photo scenes, your own photo, and a Christmas that lasts until Twelfth Night. • Photo scenes: every theme now has a photograph behind the countdown (Settings ▸ Theme ▸ Scene) • Premium can put a photo of your own tree behind the countdown — on the widgets and the share card too • The Advent calendar is smoother, and locked doors are easier to read • After Christmas Day the countdown carries on through the Twelve Days to New Year and Twelfth Night • Mac: buy Premium in the app, keyboard shortcuts (⌘1–⌘7, ⌘O opens today's door), and reminders that open the right door
