I’m pleased to present Life Counter, my first mobile app publication to Google Play.
Life Counter is a simple tool that shows you how many days you’ve lived and your age in years. Additionally, it also can show you an how long you have to live based on an entered life expectancy. My favorite feature is the age counter, showing you how fast life is counting up (or down).

Current source code is available on Github here.
