FAQ
Countdown, answered
Anything we have not answered here, ask us directly. A senior engineer replies.
How do I make a countdown to a date?
Pick the date, and a time if you want one, then give the countdown a name such as Wedding or Launch day. It starts at once and ticks every second. The date, time and name are saved in the page address.
Can I share my countdown?
Yes. Copy the address from your browser and send it. Anyone who opens it sees the same countdown, counting down to the same moment in their own time zone.
Which time zone does it use?
Your device’s time zone. A countdown to midnight on 1 January reaches zero at local midnight wherever the page is opened.
What do weekdays left and weekends left mean?
Weekdays left counts Monday to Friday from today up to the target day, which is useful for work deadlines. Weekends left counts the Saturday and Sunday pairs in between.
Can it count down to a holiday?
Yes. The holiday buttons fill in the next Christmas, Thanksgiving, Halloween, Easter and others, and each holiday also has its own countdown page.
