Your relationship with time, all in one place.
Span turns time into something you can see and feel. Watch a live, second-by-second countdown to the moments you're waiting for — or see exactly how long it's been since the ones that already happened.
Track your habits and routines with Trackers. Log any recurring activity with a single tap and discover your patterns — how often you work out, how long since your last run, or when you last called your mom.
Explore what happened on any date in history with On This Day — notable events, rich images, and a daily notification that connects you to the past.
Countdowns. Elapsed time. Daily habits. Historical moments. Span is a time tracker in every sense of the word.
No accounts. No ads. No tracking. Just your moments, on your device.
SPANS
- Live Countdowns — Real-time timers update every second, showing exactly how long until or since each date.
- Elapsed & Upcoming — Upcoming spans count down. Elapsed spans count up. Turn on Repeats Yearly to count down to the next annual occurrence automatically — birthdays, anniversaries, and holidays keep looping forever.
- Holiday Templates — Create spans for 22 US holidays in one tap. Thanksgiving, Easter, Christmas, Hanukkah, Chinese New Year, Super Bowl Sunday, and more — each with smart dates that adjust correctly every year.
- Weather Data — Add a zip code to see historical weather or a 16-day forecast for any span's date.
- Notes — Add optional notes to any span, visible when you tap to expand.
- Tags — Create custom tags with names and colors. Apply multiple to any span, then filter your list by one or combine several.
- Archive — Tuck spans you don't need day-to-day into the archive. Still there when you want them, out of the way when you don't.
- Filter & Sort — Toggle between upcoming, elapsed, or archived. Sort by date, name, or custom order. Drag to rearrange.
- Share — Share any span as a styled image card with weather and countdown. Send the link to a friend and Span opens on their phone to import it in one tap.
TRACKERS
- Log Anything — Tap the log button to record an event. The card shows live elapsed time since your last entry.
- See Your Patterns — Frequency stats show how often you typically do something.
- Full History — A dedicated timeline of every entry you've logged. Add retroactive entries, edit timestamps, or delete mistakes — all from one clean screen.
- 13 Templates — Poop, Workout, Run, Coffee, Meditation, Shower, and more. One tap to create.
- Tags & Sorting — Custom tags with names and colors, multiple sort modes, and drag-to-reorder.
ON THIS DAY
- Historical Events — Browse notable events from any date in history, powered by the Wikipedia API.
- Rich Images — Every event includes a high-resolution image. Tap to expand.
- Long-Press Previews — Peek at any event before committing to open it.
- Date Picker — Browse any date with a graphical calendar picker.
WIDGETS
- Span Widget — Small, medium, or large. Auto-populates with your top spans, or manually select which ones to show.
- On This Day Widget — A daily history widget. The large size shows a full-bleed image with text overlay. Tapping opens the matching event in the app.
NOTIFICATIONS
- Span Date Alerts — Get notified when a span's date arrives, or set a custom lead time — minutes, hours, or days before.
- Daily History — Receive a daily notification with a random historical event. Tapping deep links to the event in the app.
BACKUP & SYNC
- iCloud Backup & Restore — Back up all your spans and trackers to iCloud Drive. Duplicate detection ensures nothing gets doubled.
FREE & PRO
Track up to 2 spans and 1 tracker for free. Upgrade to Span Pro with a one-time purchase to unlock unlimited spans and trackers.
PRIVACY FIRST
Span collects no data. There are no accounts, no analytics, no ads, and no tracking. All your data stays on your device and optionally in your own iCloud Drive.
A polish release focused on widgets and tags.
• Small widget redesign — the countdown is now a hero card, centered with bigger digits.
• Widgets show more — medium fits 2 spans (up from 1), large fits 7 (up from 5), and rows stay on one line for a cleaner look.
• Tag stripe — tags now appear as a color stripe on the leading edge of each card, easier to scan than the old dots.
• Edit Tag sheet now lists every span and tracker that uses the tag, so you can see what's affected before renaming or recoloring.
Plus minor bug fixes, including uneven digit sizing on the large widget and a more consistent tracker delete confirmation.
