Countdown Timer
Track time until your next event, holiday, or deadline.
Count down to any date
Enter a future date and an optional event name. The page counts down in days, hours, minutes, and seconds, then shows the event name on the day it lands. Project or display full-screen in a classroom or office to build excitement around a date or launch. Keep open in a browser tab to hit project deadlines, plan revision, or keep tasks on schedule. Anticipate trip departures, wedding dates, and other special days with a personal countdown.
Tips for sharing a custom countdown
The date and event name live in the URL, so once the countdown is running, copy the page address and send it to a friend. They'll see the same countdown from their own time zone when they open the page. Hit full-screen top right to project the countdown on a wall or a second device. Note: Always check your device's energy saving and sleep settings before setting an important countdown. The countdown and final message won't show if the device is asleep or powered off.
FAQs
- What time zone does the countdown use?
- Your device's local time. Midnight on New Year's Eve in Tokyo is not midnight in London; the page counts down to whichever midnight is yours.
- What happens when it hits zero?
- You'll see a short celebration message (no popup or alarm sound).
- Will it work on a mobile device?
- Yes. The layout collapses to a two-column grid on phones, so three-digit day counts still fit.
