Countdown Timer
A live countdown to any future date and time — the days, hours, minutes and seconds remaining tick down in real time. Pick a target and watch it count.
How the countdown works
Choose a target date and time and the timer subtracts the current moment from it every second, breaking the gap into days, hours, minutes and seconds. It runs entirely in your browser, so it stays accurate to your own clock and time zone.
Use it for launches, deadlines, birthdays, holidays or any moment you are counting down to. Once the target passes, the timer shows that the date has been reached.
Frequently asked questions
How do I set the countdown?
Pick a future date and time in the field. The countdown updates immediately and ticks down once per second.
What time zone does it use?
It uses your device’s local time, so the countdown matches the clock on the device you are viewing it on.
What happens when the date arrives?
When the target time is reached, the timer stops at zero and shows that the date has arrived.
