Keep your next important date visible

Choose the birthday, wedding, or trip you want to check most often. Keep that countdown on your Home Screen and open Daymark for the rest of your dates.

Fit the widget to the screen

Add Daymark through the Home Screen widget picker and choose an available size. Give a photo enough room to stay readable. A small widget saves space; a larger one gives the image and countdown more room.

Understand refresh behavior

iOS controls widget refresh timing. A widget is not a continuously running stopwatch. If it differs from the app, open Daymark, return to the Home Screen and compare again. All widget sizes are included with the two free active countdowns.

What you can expect from a countdown widget

Choose a widget because you want an important date visible between visits to the app. Add the date first, then choose the view that fits your screen.
