Countdown App For iPad, 22 Days HD, Has Been Updated To 2.0, Plus Your Chance To Win A Copy!
July 20, 2011
I reviewed 22 Days and 22 Days HD last month, and I found this to be quite a nifty little countdown app. It has a beautiful interface and countdowns which showed you how many full months are remaining until the event at hand (even though there were plenty of users that didn't like this feature).
The developer has just updated the iPad version, 22 Days HD, to version 2.0. There are plenty of changes in this new version:
New features for version 2.0: • Notifications can now be set to any day in advance. • More images for common events have been added. • Automatic creation of events and reminders for the birthdays of all the address book contacts. If the contacts have pictures associated, the app will automatically use them as the main image for the event. If the images are too small, the app will use a special birthday frame when displaying the countdown. • Social Network integration. Users are now able to share accurate countdowns for their special events and birthdays over Twitter and Facebook. • Automatic holiday event creation based on the user's geographic location. • Quick event selector. If users have a lot of events and find it difficult to find one, they can now use the quick event selector by tapping and holding the text for either days, months or years. • Recurring events. According to users needs, events and their notifications can be regenerated yearly. • Automatic event creation from ICS files: When users receive this type of file, they can choose to open it in 22 Days HD and create an event from the file. • Remaining days larger than 30 are now counted as a new month. In the previous version countdown for events used real full months until an event, many users didn't like this, so in version 2.0 days larger than 30 are counted as a new month. Users can go back to the previous option from the settings app. • 22 Days HD is now available in English, Spanish, French, German and Portuguese.Luckily for our great readers, we've teamed up with the developer to give away three copies of the new version of 22 Days HD!
