Christmas Countdown : XmasTick
2026 Advent Calendar & Widget
Free
Days, hours and sleeps until Christmas 2026 — with widgets, an advent calendar, four games and carols.
How many days until Christmas? XmasTick answers it at a glance — days, hours, minutes and seconds to Christmas 2026, on a scene you choose, with the count on your home screen so you never have to open anything.
THE COUNTDOWN
• Days, hours, minutes and seconds to Christmas Day
• Or count the sleeps, which is how children ask
• Switch the target to Christmas Eve if that is when your family celebrates
• Thirteen hand-drawn scenes: a moonlit village, a fireplace, the sleigh crossing the moon, a snowy morning and more
• Choose the typeface, the countdown style and the panel it sits in
• Falling snow, hanging lights and drifting decorations, all optional
HOME SCREEN WIDGETS
Four sizes, updating on their own. See the countdown without unlocking your phone.
AN ADVENT CALENDAR
Twenty-five doors, one for each morning of December. Each opens on its own day, the way an advent calendar should.
FOUR GAMES FOR THE WAIT
Bauble Drop, Advent Match, Present Stack and Sleigh Ride.
CHRISTMAS MUSIC
Carols and seasonal tracks you can play while the countdown runs.
DECORATE A TREE
Place baubles, lights and ornaments on your own Christmas tree and keep it all season.
YOUR OWN PHOTO
Choose a picture from your library and the countdown stands in front of it — your child by the tree, your own front door in the snow, last Christmas morning. It stays on your device and is never uploaded.
PREMIUM, IF YOU WANT IT
Everything above is free to use. Premium unlocks every scene, character card, font, widget, song, decoration and game, adds your own photo as a background, and removes the ads.
It is a one-time purchase — not a subscription. Nothing renews and there is nothing to cancel. Buy a single Christmas season, or buy it once and keep it for every Christmas after.
ELEVEN LANGUAGES
English, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Polish, Portuguese, Russian and Chinese.
QUIETLY BUILT
No account. No analytics. No tracking between apps. Nothing you set up ever leaves your device.
The free app shows a few ads: a banner on the Games and Music screens, and one full-screen advert after you finish a game. Never on the countdown itself. Premium removes every one of them.
Built for iPhone and iPad alike: the tablet gets its own layout with navigation always on screen, rather than a phone screen stretched to fit.
Ratings & Reviews
- This app hasn’t received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.
Premium is here. Unlock every scene, character card, font, widget, song, decoration and game — for one Christmas season, or for good.
New: use a photo of your own behind the countdown. Your child by the tree, your own front door in the snow. It stays on your device.
The countdown, the advent calendar and the games stay free.
