New year’s countdown is a simple and elegant app with only one purpose, showing the time left to new year. Supports both Gregorian and Chinese new year.

As the countdown reaches 0, sparkling fireworks with empathetic sound effects fills up the screen. Once the firework has passed, the countdown will reset and keep counting down till next year.

Live tiles makes it easy to keep track of the time outside the app, by updating every minute. New year’s countdown supports Live tiles in three sizes with different appearance.

New year’s countdown also has a “simulate new year” button so that you know what to expect when the time comes.
