Await - Menu Bar Countdown
A native macOS countdown for the dates you care about - in the menu bar, on the desktop, and full-screen when the moment hits.
Await is a native macOS countdown app that pins your next event to the menu bar and to a desktop widget, counts down in the event's own time zone, and celebrates full-screen on every display when it arrives.
The big day, at a glance.
Await is a countdown for the dates and events you actually care about - a flight home, a release date, a kid's birthday. Add them yourself or let it read your calendar; the next one stays pinned to the menu bar and sits on your desktop as a widget, while the rest wait their turn in the popover.

How it works
- Add an event by hand, or let Await read your calendar - read-only, so meetings and birthdays show up without being typed in twice.
- Give any countdown a note and a link. For a meeting Await finds the link in the invite itself, so joining is one click from the row - or from the notification when it arrives.
- Pin the one you want up front; Await counts it down in the menu bar and on the desktop widget, and recurring events roll forward on their own.
- When it arrives, each countdown does what you asked - a calm full-screen celebration on every display, a notification, or nothing at all.
Buying and licensing
Yes. The checkout is pay what you want and zero is a valid amount. You get exactly the same lifetime license as someone who pays the suggested price.
Every Swiftfox app unlocks with a key, and this one's key simply costs nothing. Get it from the store at $0 and it arrives by email. Skip that and the download still runs in full for 30 days on its own.
No. The license is yours for good, on up to 3 Macs, with no renewal and no in-app purchase. The studio sells an optional subscription covering every app, but nothing here is behind it.
No sign-up anywhere. The key goes to whichever email you check out with, and the app never asks you to log in.
Yes, and thank you. Every app page has a Buy me a coffee button - one-off, any amount. It is not a purchase: no license is issued and nothing is unlocked, so every app works exactly the same whether you tip or not.
