Countdown Timer
Count down the hours, minutes, and seconds until any time of day. The timer below counts to 8:00 AM — pick another time with the form.
Count Down to Another Time
Use the form below to update the timer to count down to any time or day, such as 8:00 PM or 8:25 AM.
How the Countdown Works
The timer reads your device's clock and time zone, finds the next time the clock will show your target time, and subtracts the current time from it once every second. If that time has already passed today, the countdown automatically rolls over midnight and counts to tomorrow instead.
Add a date to count down to a specific day, or pick a time zone to count down to a moment somewhere else in the world — daylight saving time changes are handled for you.
