Today is in

FY26-Q4

82 days left in the quarter. Fiscal Quarter keeps that in your menu bar.

A small Mac app, with widgets for the desktop and an iPhone app, for anyone whose work runs on quarters. It shows where you are in the quarter, how long is left, and when your customers' quarters end too.

Version 1.4. Free, signed and notarized by Apple. macOS 13 or later; widgets need macOS 14.

The Fiscal Quarter panel open from the menu bar, showing FY26-Q4, day 11 of 92, the year as a line of months with today marked in October, 82 days left, and two other company calendars.
Day 11 of 92, week 212% through the quarter

Count down in the unit you think in.

Days to the end of the quarter, the half, and the fiscal year. Or workdays, if you think in working weeks, or weekends, if you're planning around them. Click any countdown in the panel to put it in the menu bar instead.

The numbers here are live for today, using the built-in calendar.

    Widgets for the desktop and the Home Screen.

    Small and medium widgets on the Mac desktop and the iPhone Home Screen, plus three Lock Screen sizes on iPhone. The medium widget sets the quarter, the half, and the year side by side, because they start on different days even when they end together.

    The medium Fiscal Quarter widget on the Mac: FY26-Q4, 82 days left, ends Dec 31, with green progress bars for the quarter, half, and year.

    The iPhone app listing other calendars: Acme Corp, which starts July 1, in FY27-Q2, and Northpeak Labs, which starts April 1, in FY27-Q3.

    Your customers' years don't start when yours does.

    Add the fiscal calendars of the companies you sell to or work with, by name and the day their year starts. The panel lists each one with its quarter and days left, and turns amber in their last two weeks, so you see their quarter end coming.

    Calendars with a short transition year, or quarters that don't follow whole months, can be imported from a file.
