Calculators & Time

Count down to a date

Pick a date and watch the days, hours, minutes and seconds tick down. Once it passes, it keeps counting upward instead of stopping.

Choose a date and time.

Counted against your device’s clock in its own time zone. It keeps counting past the date rather than stopping, which is what you want if the thing has already happened.

How it works

01

It carries on past the date

A countdown that hits zero and freezes has stopped being useful at exactly the moment you look at it after the event. This switches to counting up, so "three days since" is as available as "three days until".

02

Your device’s clock, your device’s zone

The target is interpreted in your local time zone, which is what the date picker means. For an event in another zone, convert it first.

What it does

Days down to seconds

Each unit shown separately rather than as one long number.

A label for what it is

Optional, and worth setting when the page is left open.

Accurate in a background tab

Browsers throttle timers in tabs you are not looking at — often to once a minute — so anything that counts its own ticks loses time. This compares against the system clock on every update, so switching tabs changes nothing about when it finishes.

Runs in your browser

No account and no upload — what you type is never sent anywhere. Analytics records that the tool was opened, never what you put into it.

Practical advice

Getting a better result

  • Nothing is stored, so the countdown does not survive a refresh. Bookmark the event date somewhere if it matters.
  • For counting down a duration rather than to a date, the online timer is the tool — it also makes a sound when it finishes.

Questions

Things people ask

What happens when the date arrives?

It keeps counting, upward, showing how long it has been since. It does not stop or reset.

Which time zone does it use?

Your device’s. The date and time you enter are taken as local, which matches what the picker shows you.
