Until X
A simpler way to stay aware of time
Until X helps users keep important dates, countdowns, and one active goal visible on the desktop and in widgets. It is built for people who want clarity without unnecessary complexity, accounts, or cloud syncing.
What is Until X?
Until X is a native countdown app. It shows your nearest events on the desktop and in widgets, and also includes a separate Control mode for one active goal or streak.
Who it is for
Until X is designed for:
-
users who want personal events always in view
-
people who prefer local-first tools
-
anyone tracking one daily priority or streak
-
users who do not want accounts, cloud sync, or digital clutter
What you can do with Until X
Create, edit, delete, pin, and sort countdown events in a clean local workspace.
Bring upcoming Apple/Google Calendar events into the app and keep them in your local app state.
Let the widget choose content automatically or manually select up to 10 events to display.
Show selected events in a full list or rotate them hourly for a lighter, more focused view.
Display countdowns in standard, calendar, or tally styles depending on the mood and purpose.
Launch resizable desktop boards for Countdown and Control with local background settings.
Track one active goal with streak logic, cutoff-time behavior, and interactive Yes/No actions in the widget.
Why Until X feels different
Local-first by design
Your data stays on your device. No backend and no account sync were found in the repository, and the privacy policy states that data remains on-device.
Visible, not buried
Important events and goals stay where you can actually see them: on your desktop and in widgets.
Flexible, not noisy
Choose what appears, how it looks, and whether it rotates or stays fixed.
Focused, not overloaded
Use the main countdown system for events and the Control mode for one meaningful daily target.
How it works
Create your own countdown events or import upcoming dates from Apple/Google Calendar.
Add or import
Pin, sort, and select the events you want to keep visible.
Organize what matters
Display events in widgets or on desktop boards with your preferred style and layout.
Show them where you need them
Private by design
Until X uses shared local storage to save normalized app state and can fall back to local files when needed. Background images are copied into local app storage. The app is built around on-device persistence rather than cloud infrastructure.
