is there a shortcut to always display the time between dates?

I am trying to set up a shortcut that allows me to always be able to see the time between dates. Specifically, I'd like to set up a tile on my iphone home screen that alwasy displays X days between the current date and a specific date in the future.


I have the short cut "get time between dates" already set up, with the parameters of "current date" and "June 16 2024" in "Days". Obviously when I click the play button icon, it does the calculation. I have also added the action to my homescreen but when I click on it, it just gives me a check mark.


What is the next step I need to take to get that number always on display, or at least displays it when i click the tile, and changes daily to reflect the countdown?

Hi, I’m also trying to do something similar. I made a shortcut that displays a notification for the difference between days.


try it here:

but I’m trying to find a way to make the widget also display the number without having to tap on it for the notification.

like how the calendar widget displays the date.
