### 󠀁[Not as advertised](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/not-as-advertised-14/)󠁿

 [lex03](https://profiles.wordpress.org/lex03/) January 21, 2025

The images and title push this as a countdown timer and show images of this, however,
you can only have this functionality on the premium plan. The free version only 
gives to the basic WP banner you can find on literally any other plugin, and the
ones on the other plugins probably give you more customisation abilities. It was
really a total waste of time. Hopefully the creators will be more clear and honest.“
Timed Promo Countdown” was NOT listed as a premium feature in their description.
