How to add it

  1. Install ClipDays Left from the App Store. It is free, with no account.

  3. Search for ClipDays Left and pick small, medium or large.
  4. Tap Add Widget. The year ring is now visible every time you unlock your phone.

Why a widget instead of a reminder

A reminder fires once and is dismissed. A widget is always there, so the number keeps working on you without a notification. You can also count down to any date, such as a trip, a deadline or an exam, and show that on the widget instead of the year.
