How it works

Type a name, pick a date (and a time if you like), and the countdown starts right away in your own time zone. When it reaches zero, the page shows a celebration screen.

Share the link and friends see the same countdown. Add it to your calendar for reminders the evening before and the morning of.

Worked example

A trip on December 20, 2026, checked on October 21, 2026, is 60 days away: 8 weeks and 4 days.

Frequently asked questions

What can I count down to?

Anything with a date: a vacation, graduation, concert, launch, move, a baby's due date or a big game.

Does it work if I close the page?

Yes. The date lives in the link, so opening it later picks up the countdown. A calendar reminder means you don't have to remember.

Can I count down to a specific time?

Yes. Add a time and the countdown runs to that minute.

Is it free?

Yes, free with no sign-up.
