In short: set your due date in Kounts and watch the days count down on a gorgeous photo card. Add a weekly reminder to capture this week's bump photo, build a timeline of the whole pregnancy, share the countdown with your partner, and pin it to your Home Screen, Lock Screen and Apple Watch. It's free, with no ads.
Made for the wait to meet your baby
Count down to the due date
Pop your due date in and Kounts shows the days to go on a full-screen card you'll want to open every morning. Dress it in a scan picture or a soft gradient, so the count feels personal from the very first week.
Weekly milestone nudges
Add a recurring weekly reminder and Kounts taps you on the shoulder at the same time each week — a gentle prompt to snap this week's bump photo or note how you're feeling. It repeats automatically right up to the birth.
A bump photo timeline
Every photo you add lands in a tidy timeline of photo memories grouped by date, so week one to week forty sits in one scrollable story. By the day itself you've a full record of the bump growing.
Widgets & a live final countdown
Add a Home or Lock Screen widget to keep "weeks until baby" in view all day. As the due date nears, a self-ticking Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown count down the final hours on your way to the hospital.
A countdown you both share
Invite your partner — and up to five people in total — to follow the same live count, and let everyone add to one shared album. The grandparents-to-be can watch the bump photos appear right alongside you.
It keeps going after the birth
When baby arrives, the same event can flip from counting down to counting up — "days old" or "days since" — so the countdown to the due date quietly becomes a count of those precious first days and weeks.
A full-screen due-date countdown, the event with bump photos and reminders, and Home Screen widgets.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a good pregnancy countdown app for iPhone?
Yes. Kounts is a free event countdown app for iPhone and Apple Watch that's lovely for pregnancy. Add your due date and it counts down the days on a full-screen card, a Home or Lock Screen widget, and a Live Activity as the day draws near. You can also keep a bump photo timeline, weekly milestone reminders and the hospital location all on the same countdown.
Can it remind me of weekly pregnancy milestones?
Yes. Alongside the count down to your due date, you can add a recurring weekly reminder so Kounts nudges you each week of the pregnancy — a gentle prompt to take that week's bump photo or jot a note. You choose the day and time, and it repeats automatically until the baby arrives.
Can my partner share the pregnancy countdown?
Yes. You can share a Kounts countdown with up to five people, so your partner — and grandparents-to-be, if you like — follow the same live count to the due date. Everyone can add bump photos to one shared album, so the whole journey is gathered in a single place.
Is the pregnancy countdown app free?
Yes. Kounts is free to download with no ads, and the countdown, sharing, bump photo timeline, reminders, widgets and Apple Watch app are all part of the free experience. An optional Kounts Premium adds extra card styles and customisation, as a yearly subscription or a one-time lifetime purchase.
Will the due-date countdown show on my Lock Screen and Apple Watch?
Yes. Add a Kounts widget to your Home or Lock Screen to keep the weeks-until front and centre, and the dedicated Apple Watch app keeps the count on your wrist. As your due date approaches, a self-ticking Live Activity and Dynamic Island countdown count down the final hours.
