Frequently Asked Questions

Find answers to common questions about our countdown timer

How accurate is the countdown timer?

Our countdown timer is highly accurate and updates every second. It accounts for time zones and daylight saving time changes to provide precise countdown information.

Can I use the timer for events in different time zones?

Yes, the timer automatically uses your device's local time zone. If you need to calculate across time zones, we recommend using our Time Zone Converter first to determine the correct local time for your event.

What happens when the countdown reaches zero?

When the countdown reaches zero, the timer will stop and display "00:00:00:00". You'll need to reset the timer to set a new countdown.

Can I leave the page and come back to my countdown?

If you close the page or refresh it, your countdown will reset. For long-term countdowns, we recommend bookmarking the page with your target date and time in the URL or taking a screenshot of your countdown settings.

Is there a limit to how far in the future I can set a countdown?

There's no practical limit to how far in the future you can set a countdown. Our timer can handle dates many years in the future, though extremely distant dates (beyond 2038) may have limitations due to technical constraints in some browsers.
