Make the most of the countdown

Pin this link in your family chat or school class. Pair it with a custom countdown timer for specific Christmas activities like a gift-wrapping session, or use the shareable timer link to count down to Christmas dinner. You can also create countdowns for other December events like your office party or travel day.

Frequently asked questions

What timezone does the countdown use?

The countdown ticks to midnight at the start of the event date in the viewer's local browser timezone. This means someone in Tokyo and someone in New York both see a countdown tailored to their own clock - Each celebrates when it's actually midnight where they are.

Can I share this page with anyone?

Yes. This URL is permanent and public - Just copy the link from your browser address bar (or use the copy button above) and send it to anyone. They don't need an account or app to view it.

How do I create a countdown for my own event?

Use the countdown creator to name your event, set a date, and pick an emoji. You'll get a permanent shareable link in under 30 seconds. No sign-up required.

I just need a quick timer - Not a calendar date

Use the Countdown Timer for a private countdown by hours and minutes, or the Timer Link Generator to create a shareable link for a specific duration like "25 minutes".
