Advent calendar features on apps — fun daily surprise or just extra clutter?
Every December I see “advent calendar” style features on entertainment apps where you open a door each day and get a surprise.
Sometimes it’s a cute daily habit. Other times it’s noisy, unclear, and feels like it’s trying too hard to keep you clicking.
If you’ve tried these before, what makes one feel genuinely simple and enjoyable on mobile?

I like the calendars where you can open the day’s door, see the surprise, and move on—no extra hoops. You can get a feel for that daily-door format here: https://www.az-ar.com/gemlers-advent-calendar/
