Reminder & Countdown Pro 4+

When I still owned an Apple 3GS, this was one of the very first apps I installed because my life depended on having reliable calendars and reminders. This one was always good, whether I was entering travel dates, birthdays, doctor appointments, Christmas and Thanksgiving, or going out for dinner. There was a tiny glitch which occurred a few months ago in which a loop occurred if you missed one of your alarms. I reported the issue, and although I may have been the only one going thru the problem since they were unaware of it, it wasn't long before it was rectified. Despite me wishing there were more cute icons for varied events, I like that I can also had my own images. And it appears that whenever they upgrade, it's not to the detriment of what I like about the app as a whole. (And many so-called upgrades very often ruin what we liked). It's hoped that this great little app will be around for sometime, and any improvements will be just that - improvements to make we customers happy.

No that I have your attention. I am an English teacher. (Just typing that makes people read even closer.) I think I have had this app since my iPhone 4. I use it all the time for tracking the obvious dates like when school starts, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and Spring Breaks, and the last day of school. I also track birthdays, special dates, and other events.

It has be come therapeutic to glance at the countdown and mentally note how I feel about the numbers. Amazingly they vary through the year. I am not always looking forward to breaks, vacation or nee beginnings. Reflecting on why I feel a certain way at a certain time has helped solve problems, relieve some stress and allow me to more fully enjoy the anticipation of good things ahead.

This is exactly what I wanted. I have a hard time remembering Birthdays/Anniversaries/Dr. Appointments and I didn’t want a calandra app all I wanted was Exactly what this app says it does and it does what it says it will do without any problems. The only problem I had was learning how to use it but when I emailed the app people they were very fast answering my questions and they explained on more than one occasion how to work some of the things I could not figure out on my own. Because I didn’t understand how to do some of the things was not their fault. The fault was just me being a slow learner and instead of trying the hit or miss approach of learning I just emailed them and they were great with their help. Very kind people and very great app
