How to see how many days are left until a deadline every morning
Create a KeyRoutines routine with an At a time trigger in the morning, Time between dates from now to your deadline in days, and Show notification with the whole-number result.
Steps
- 1
Schedule it
Add At a time at 09:00 on weekdays, with missed runs set to run once.
- 2
Count the days
Add Time between dates with the earlier date empty for now, the later date set to your deadline such as 2026-12-15, and the unit set to days.
- 3
Show it
Add Show notification with the whole-number amount and "days until launch".
Tips
- The amount is negative once the deadline has passed; add an If with Compare values to say "Deadline passed" instead.
- Use Add to bell instead of Show notification for a silent entry.
Questions
- Can it count weeks?
- Yes. Set the unit to weeks; months aren't offered because their length varies.
- Is it free?
- Yes. At a time, Time between dates and Show notification are free.
