Countdown Timer
Count down to any event — a product launch, holiday, birthday, deadline, or the New Year. Pick a target date and time (or use a quick preset) and watch a live days / hours / minutes / seconds countdown update every second. Once the moment arrives, it flips to show the time elapsed since. Runs entirely in your browser with no sign-up.

Frequently Asked Questions
QWhat can I count down to?
Any future date and time — holidays, product launches, exams, birthdays, deadlines, or the New Year. Use the presets or set a custom date and time.
QDoes it keep running if I leave the page open?
Yes. The countdown updates every second while the tab is open and recalculates from the real clock, so it stays accurate.
QWhat happens when the countdown reaches zero?
It switches to show how much time has elapsed since the event, so you can see both before and after.
