Soon. - Days Until Big Events
Wedding, Trip & Baby Countdown
Only for iPhone
Free · In‑App Purchases · Designed for iPhone. Not verified for macOS.
See how many days are left until your trip or wedding every time you pick up your iPhone, then get ready with a plan that costs nothing. No ads. No tracking.
Something good is coming. Soon. keeps it in view, so the date you are waiting for lives on your Home Screen and Lock Screen instead of somewhere in a calendar.
Add a moment and choose its colors. The countdown starts right away, and the number gets smaller every morning.
WHERE YOU ALREADY LOOK
Choose from 26 widgets for your Home Screen and Lock Screen, so the countdown is there each time you unlock your phone. With Premium, the final 24 hours run as a live timer on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island. Turn on Keep on Lock Screen to see the whole countdown there.
A PLAN FOR THE DAY
Waiting is easier when you know what to do next. Every moment can have a plan: tasks to tick off and milestones on a timeline. Rename them, add your own, delete what you don't need, and move a milestone earlier or later. Plan mode is free.
COUNT UP AS WELL AS DOWN
Some dates are worth counting from. Set a moment in the past, and Soon. shows the days since it happened, so you can see how far you have come.
MOMENTS THAT COME BACK
Birthdays and anniversaries return every year. Make a moment repeat weekly, monthly, or yearly, and it starts counting toward the next one on its own. Creating repeating moments is part of Premium.
REMINDERS AND THE FORECAST
With Premium, Soon. reminds you 7 days, 3 days, and 1 day before, and again on the day. Add a place to a moment, and the weather forecast appears once the day is within a week.
PRIVATE AND IN SYNC
Soon. has no ads and no tracking. Your moments sync across your devices with iCloud. Soon. works with Siri and Shortcuts and is available in 36 languages.
FREE AND PREMIUM
Soon. is free for up to 5 moments, with Plan mode included. Premium removes that limit and adds the live Lock Screen countdown, reminders, the forecast, repeating moments, and all 11 themes (3 are free).
Premium comes as a monthly or yearly subscription, each with a 1-week free trial, or as a one-time Lifetime purchase. Family Sharing covers all three, and your purchase restores on any iPhone signed in with the same Apple Account.
Add the date you are looking forward to, and let it get closer where you can see it.

more Tap a widget, the Live Activity, the Control Center control, or a Spotlight result, and Soon. now opens that exact moment.
On the free plan, the Ring, Rings, Timeline, Timeline Full, and Dots widgets now show your pinned moment instead of a Premium lock. If you pin more than one moment, all of them stay on Home, and Unpin works from a moment's page. With Premium, images shared as a widget no longer carry the Soon. watermark.
Soon. also has a new icon that fills the whole tile, with Dark and Tinted versions for your Home Screen.
Smaller fixes: the progress ring starts fresh with each new cycle of a repeating moment, the Year widget's months line up with their weeks, deleting a moment also clears it from your widgets and notifications, and a search for "weddings" now finds your wedding.
2.8.1 22h ago
A whole Home Screen page, just for the day you're waiting for.
On iOS 27, nine of your widgets now come in the new extra-large size. Your moment fills the page. Your year, your month, your agenda and your boarding pass unfold from top to bottom, with room to breathe.
Touch and hold your Home Screen to add one. Then give the day you can't wait for the whole page.

2.7.2 Sep 15
Your whole year, on your Home Screen.
A countdown used to tell you one thing: what's next. Now you can see it all — a year of moments laid out week by week, each one glowing brighter as it draws closer.
There's a calendar with your moments marked. A quiet list of everything ahead. A streak that grows a little every morning. And yes, a boarding pass for the trip you can't stop thinking about.
The widgets you already love look deeper and richer too — and they finally look right when your Home Screen is tinted.
Find the one that fits your screen. Then watch the days fill in.
2.6.7 Aug 28
Count up, not just down. Turn any past date into a running tally — "247 days married," "18 months smoke-free," "3 years since we met" — and celebrate every day since, not just the day it happens.
See real time, not just numbers. Countdowns now break down into months, weeks, and days, so "412 days" reads as "1 year, 1 month, 12 days" — moments feel closer than ever.
Down to the minute. Add an exact time to any event for flights, ceremonies, and appointments that can't be off by a day.
Still yours everywhere. Your moments keep syncing automatically via iCloud, so a new phone or a reinstall never means starting over.
Plus smoother sheets, cleaner colors, and a few fixes for an even calmer experience.
Thank you for waiting with us. If you're enjoying Soon., a quick review means a lot.

Soon. now syncs with iCloud.
Add a moment on one device and it's already there on your others — automatically, quietly, in the background. No account to create, nothing to set up.
