Days Left open from the macOS menu bar, showing upcoming countdowns

Built for a glance, not a window

Most countdown apps want a widget, a window or a notification. Days Left sits quietly in the menu bar instead: a flag and a number. When something is close, the list shows it in warm colours; on the day itself, the count switches to hours and minutes.

Progress for the bigger picture

Not everything has a single deadline. Progress events show how much of a year, quarter, sprint or semester has passed — a gentle nudge that time is moving, without a single notification.

Frequently asked questions

Does it live in the menu bar?

Yes. Days Left is a menu bar app: the next event shows next to a small flag icon (like “12d”), or as a filling ring for year and quarter progress, and one click opens the full list. No Dock icon, no window to manage.

Which Macs are supported?

Days Left is a native app for Apple Silicon and Intel Macs running macOS 14 Sonoma or later, and it follows your system light or dark appearance.

Where is my data stored?

In your own iCloud account, so your Mac and iPhone stay in sync. There is no separate sign-up, and nothing is sent to our servers.

Can I try it before installing?

Yes — the free web version on the homepage has the same countdowns, progress events and templates as the Mac app.
