Tillglow

How much does it cost?

Tillglow is free for 7 days with everything open: no card, no sign-up, nothing renews. After that, one single payment through Google Play keeps it for good (a one-time purchase, not a subscription), only if you choose to buy it; Google Play shows you the price in your currency before you pay. You can buy it any time in Settings. The payment is processed by Google Play and the purchase is checked by RevenueCat; Tillglow never sees your card.

If you don't buy, nothing is deleted: the widgets already on your home screen keep counting, and Export CSV and Save a backup copy are always free. If Google Play can't take the payment at that moment, Tillglow stays open.

Do I need an account?

No. There is no sign-up and no Tillglow account. If you buy Tillglow, the purchase belongs to your Google Play account: on a new phone or after reinstalling, tap Restore purchase with the same Google account and you are not charged again.

How do I add a widget?

Open the Widgets tab and tap Add widget to home screen, then confirm on your phone's screen. You can also long-press an empty spot on your home screen → Widgets → Tillglow. Tap a widget to open its countdown. To change what a widget shows, tap Change next to it in the Widgets tab.

Does it sync between phones?

No — on purpose. Your dates never leave your phone.

Got a new phone?

In Settings, tap Save a backup copy and keep the file in your files or cloud storage. On the new phone, open Tillglow and tap Restore from a backup. If you bought Tillglow, then tap Restore purchase (same Google account). Widgets are put back on the new home screen by hand.

Why is my widget a day behind?

Android can hold the midnight update while your phone is asleep; it catches up as soon as you wake the screen. If it stays behind, open Tillglow once.

My widget isn't updating

Open Tillglow once after installing or updating it. On Samsung phones: Settings › Battery (on some models Device care › Battery) › Background usage limits — make sure Tillglow isn't in "Deep sleeping apps". Some phones delay the midnight update by a few minutes to save battery. In the Widgets tab, Refresh widgets now redraws them.

Why did a reminder arrive late?

To save battery, Android can deliver a reminder up to an hour after the time you set, and sometimes later while Battery Saver is on or the phone is asleep. Tillglow uses the normal, battery-friendly kind of reminder and never asks for special alarm permissions. If the hour matters, set the reminder a little earlier.

How do I delete everything?

Settings → Delete all my data. It erases your countdowns, reminders, photos and settings from the phone and resets your widgets. See the privacy policy for details.
