Follow these steps to install Moments and create your first countdown event.
-
Download and install the app
- Android: open the Google Play Store and search for "Moments Countdown" or follow the Play Store link on momentscountdown.app. Tap Install.
- iOS: open the App Store and search for "Moments Countdown" or follow the App Store link on momentscountdown.app. Tap Get.
-
Open the app and accept basic permissions
- On first launch Moments may ask permission to send notifications and to access photos (if you plan to upload a custom background). Grant the permissions you want now; you can change them later in your device Settings.
-
Add your first event
- Tap the + (plus) button on the main screen.
- Enter the event title (for example: "Birthday — Ana").
- Set the date and time using the date/time picker.
- Choose whether this is a countdown to a future date or a “time-since” event (lookback) by toggling "Count up / Count down" if present.
- (Optional) Pick a background: choose from Unsplash images or tap "Upload" to use a photo from your device.
- Tap Save.
How to verify
- The new event appears in your events list with a live days/hours/minutes countdown. If you see it on the list you’ve completed the setup.
Edge cases & tips
- If Save is greyed out, check the date is valid (not an empty field) and the title is present.
- If you don’t see the app in the store, ensure your region/store account matches the app availability or download via the links on the website.
- Free users can have up to 3 events; upgrade to Pro to add more (see "Purchases & Pro features").
