Create a countdown

Creation is free, requires no sign-up, and takes less than a minute.

How do I create a countdown?

From the Create button, fill in the title, target date, category, then customize the appearance. Validate: your countdown is online immediately.

Do I need to create an account?

No. No sign-up is required. At creation, a unique edit link is given to you (to keep).

How does the timezone work?

By default, your local timezone is used. You can also force a specific timezone, or enable the "visitor timezone" option which automatically adapts the countdown for each visitor.

What's the difference between "visitor timezone" and a fixed timezone?

With a fixed timezone (e.g., Europe/Paris), all visitors see the countdown toward the same absolute date/time. With "visitor timezone", each visitor sees the target date expressed in their own timezone (useful for a "midnight" event applicable anywhere).

How is the counter's URL generated?

A slug is automatically generated from the title. You can customize it at creation.
