XgD's Countdown

XgD's Countdown is a lightweight software application developed specifically for helping you find out how much time you allocate to different tasks with the aid of a countdown timer.

You can find the countdown timer running in the background, hiding in your system tray. You can get access to its configuration settings by right-clicking on the tray icon or its main window. It places a minimalist panel on your desktop that shows the remaining number of days, hours, minutes, and seconds.

What’s more, you are allowed to move the timer to the preferred position on the desktop, resize it, as well as lock its position on the screen. Plus, you can choose between several preset desktop locations (top left, top right, bottom left, bottom right), keep the timer on top of other programs, as well as automatically resize its primary panel.

XgD's Countdown gives you the possibility to configure the timer by specifying the date and number of hours, minutes, and seconds. When the time is up, you can make the application run a custom tool, play sound notifications (MP3, WAV), and show a user-defined message.

You are offered the freedom to change the appearance of the timer by adjusting the transparency, altering the text in terms of font, font style, size, and color, importing a custom BMP photo to change the shape of the timer, and altering the background color.

Reminders can be configured to run at startup and at a custom number of minutes. Other important options worth being mentioned enable you to run the app at Windows startup, work with multiple countdown timers at the same time, and assign a specific action (e.g. open the Settings window, lock or unlock the timer) when you double-click on the timer’s window or tray icon.

XgD's Countdown comes packed with several smart and handy features for helping you time all sorts of events. It is suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
