We send the page you’re on and your browser’s name with it. Nothing else.

Make a countdown

Saved to your account, and shared in one link.

The basics

Try “Mum’s birthday 14 June every year”, “exam next Friday 9am” or “holiday in 6 weeks”.

Or paste an event link

We read the date from the page, the way search engines do.

For birthdays pick Every year. For School’s out at 3:15 pm, pick Weekdays and set a time.

Count

Counts down to the date.

Look

Picture, card pattern, background, the last 10 seconds
Picture

We suggest one from the name. Pick any.

At zero

What happens in the last 10 seconds. “My usual” follows Settings.

Sentence style
Background

Reminders

Days before, on the clock, ring at zero
Remind me

On the clock

By email or notification, as set in Settings. Hours and minutes count back from the time you set (midnight if there isn’t one). None ticked: your usual reminder.

Messages and notes

Message at zero, private note, time capsule letter

0 / 80

Only you and co-organisers see it.

Only organisers can read it before the day.

A message at zero (optional)

Up to 10 addresses, separated by commas. We send it once, the moment it hits zero.

Trip and people

Destination weather, who you’re counting with, more stops

For a trip: in the last 10 days we show the weather forecast there.

More stops (optional)

For trips with several steps: “Flight” then “Tokyo” then “Home”. The first stop is the date above.

    Plans and links

    Link, tags, what comes next, milestones, checklist

    Chain countdowns: exams, then the holiday, then results. On the day, this one points to the next.

    Milestone messages (optional)

    Your own words on the card on a given day, like “Book the hotel” at 30 days to go.

      Checklist (optional)

        Give items a “when” and the countdown shows what’s due next.

        Sharing and privacy

        Pin, surprise, group, who can see the link

        They can edit it with you. They get an email invite (in this local build, it goes to the Outbox).

        Pinned at the top for everyone who joins.

        Privacy on the shared link

        Cancel
        Add several at once

        One a line: a name and a date, like “Mum’s birthday 14 June every year” or “Exams start 2 June”. We read each line the way “Type it in one go” does.
