Days until every big moment
Something wonderful is coming up. Watch it get closer. Coming Up turns the days you're looking forward to into gorgeous, glowing countdowns — trips, birthdays, concerts, holidays, the big day — each with its own living aurora of color, a giant countdown, and a place on your Home Screen, Lock Screen, and Apple Watch.
Completely free — no ads, no subscriptions, no in-app purchases, no account. Ever.



Not a list of dates — a living countdown for each thing you can't wait for.
12 hand-tuned color themes, each a softly drifting aurora — or use one of your own photos as the backdrop instead.
In the last 24 hours, the day count becomes a live clock. A Live Activity counts down on your Lock Screen and in the Dynamic Island — and there's confetti when the day finally arrives.
Years, months, and days, or weeks and days. Sleeps to go, weekends to go, hours, and minutes — with a progress bar showing how much of the wait is already behind you.
Track the days since anything — anniversaries, new jobs, streaks, milestones — and celebrate 100 days, 1 year, 1,000 days, and every milestone along the way.
Reminders on the day, the day before, a week before, or a month before, at the time you choose. Yearly events like birthdays roll over on their own — even on February 29.
Add an emoji, a category, and notes like gate numbers or gift ideas. A live preview shows exactly how your countdown will look, and one-tap starting ideas get you going fast.
Small, medium, and large widgets bathed in each event's colors. Lock Screen widgets with gauges and ticking timers. Choose what each one shows — your next event, a shuffle, or one favorite.


Medium and large widgets show your next event big, with the next three right behind it — and the final hours tick by live on your Lock Screen
Turn the Digital Crown and each event glides in on its own aurora. A large watch-face complication shows the countdown and progress, with circular, corner, and inline styles too.
Add an event right from your wrist and it syncs to your iPhone. Your events and photos sync from iPhone automatically.

Anniversaries, streaks, and milestones — with a celebration at every one. And for every countdown, see the wait in years, months, weeks, days, sleeps, or weekends.


Filter by category, keep past events to look back on, and see every wait the way that makes sense to you
A gift to everyone who loves having something to look forward to. Every feature, every widget, every complication, and every future update — free for everyone.
