Birthday countdown
How many days until your birthday, or someone else’s? Pick the date and see the count, then keep it on your home screen with Waitday.
Why count down to a birthday
A birthday comes round once a year, which makes the weeks before it the best time to plan: the party, the table, the present that has to be ordered in time.
A countdown keeps the day in view, for your own birthday and for the people you never want to forget. With yearly repeats it starts again by itself, every year.
Make the wait part of the fun
- Start a gift list a month ahead and add to it whenever an idea comes up.
- Plan the party or dinner while there’s still time to book.
- For a round birthday, collect photos and messages from friends for a surprise.
- Set a reminder a week before, so the card arrives on time.
Set up your countdown in Waitday
