New in Cupla: Countdown Widget for Your Next Event

Written by

Erika Palmer

Co-Founder of Cupla

Erika started Cupla with her husband Will after realising how easily date night slips when two busy lives collide. Today she leads the company’s mission to give couples back their quality time, and she still swears by a long nature walk and a table at a restaurant neither of them has tried before.

Count Down to What Matters Most

We’re excited to introduce the Countdown Widget, a brand new way to keep anticipation alive for your next shared moment.

Add it to your phone’s home screen and Cupla will show a live countdown to either:

  • Your next upcoming event in Cupla
  • A specific event you choose such as an anniversary, trip, or concert

Why Couples Love It

  • For long distance relationships
    Being apart is easier when you can see exactly how many days, hours, or minutes are left until you’re together again. The countdown becomes a daily reminder of what you’re looking forward to.
  • For special milestones
    Birthdays, anniversaries, or big plans deserve more than just a calendar reminder. The widget builds excitement every time you glance at your phone.
  • For everyday quality time
    Date nights, weekends away, or even a quiet night in. When it’s scheduled in Cupla, you can count down to it with one tap.

How It Works

  1. Add the Countdown Widget to your home screen just like any other widget on iOS or Android.
  2. Choose whether you want it to display the next event automatically or lock it to a specific event.
  3. Watch the time tick down right on your home screen.

Why It Matters

So much of life admin is about logistics. This update flips that on its head. Instead of being a chore, your schedule becomes something to look forward to. The countdown is more than just a timer. It’s a visible reminder of the moments you’re intentionally creating together.


👉 Try adding the Countdown Widget today and give yourself (and your partner) something to smile about every time you unlock your phone.

Both your schedules, to‑dos and date nights in one shared week. Free to download, set up in two minutes.
