Frequently Asked Questions

Can I create multiple countdowns?
Currently, you can create one countdown at a time in the browser. To track multiple events, bookmark this page with different event configurations or take screenshots of your countdowns to save them.
Will the countdown continue if I close my browser?
No, this countdown timer runs in your browser and resets when you close or refresh the page. To maintain a countdown, keep the browser tab open or bookmark the page and return to recreate your countdown.
How accurate is the countdown?
The countdown is accurate to the second and automatically updates in real-time. It calculates the exact time difference between now and your event date/time, accounting for days, hours, minutes, and seconds.
Can I customize the appearance of my countdown?
The current version has a beautiful purple gradient design. For custom colors or themes, you would need to modify the CSS code. Future versions may include customization options.
What happens when the countdown reaches zero?
When your event arrives, the countdown displays a celebratory message: "🎉 The event is here! 🎉". The timer stops at zero and won't go negative.
Can I set a countdown for an event in the past?
While you can technically select a past date, it will immediately show as completed. This tool is designed for future events only. For tracking time since past events, use an "elapsed time" or "anniversary" calculator instead.
