Countdown app for smartphones

Post by Driana » Thu Sep 08, 2011 10:45 am

Hey! I don't know how to make apps or I would do it, but is there anyone out there who could gift us all an app that's similar to the popup countdown window? If you're not familiar, not the one on the Home page, but go on this page http://www.burningman.com/index/full_countdown.html and in the text there's a link for the ticking popup countdown window.

I have an android but I don't know how it works making apps available on droids or iphones. Also, this is something I would support via kickstarter if the app was to be made available for free.

Let me know if you can do this, know someone who can, or if something like this is already out there somewhere.

cheers!

The "Time to Burn" app for iphones has a countdown on the main home screen..

Look on Android Market for "Final Countdown". You create as many events in it as you want, enter date and time to event, name the event, and you can place a widget on your homescreen for that specific event. I use it all the time for trips and used it for Burn2011
