How to make a countdown
Tap a holiday to count down to its next date, or type your own event name and pick a date and time, then press Start countdown. The days, hours, minutes and seconds update live. If the date has already passed, the page shows how long ago it was.
Share your countdown
Press Copy share link and send it to friends or family, or post it in a group chat. Anyone who opens the link sees the same countdown to your event. It's great for weddings, trips, birthdays, graduations, product launches and exam dates.
About time zones
The countdown uses the time zone of the device it's viewed on. If you share a countdown with someone in another time zone, it counts down to the same clock time where they are. For most events like birthdays and holidays, that's exactly what you want.
