Count down to any date
Anticipating an important event is far more fun with a countdown ticking away, and this tool creates a live countdown to any date and time you choose, whether a birthday, a holiday, a product launch or a personal deadline, showing the days, hours, minutes and seconds remaining and updating continuously in real time.
Why a live countdown
A live, ticking countdown turns an abstract future date into something tangible and present, because you can actually watch it approaching second by second rather than merely knowing the date is out there somewhere. It suits anything worth looking forward to and anything with a firm deadline attached, and seeing the exact time remaining, right down to the second, is genuinely motivating when it is a goal you are working toward and simply enjoyable when it is an event you cannot wait for. You just set the target date and the countdown runs live in your browser from then on.
Watch it tick down
It runs entirely in your browser, so nothing you enter is uploaded and it works without an account, keeping everything on your own machine and available on any device immediately.
