How countdowns are calculated

Every countdown here is the difference between the event's timestamp and the current moment, recomputed each second. Nothing is stored or counted down on a server, which is why the page stays correct after you lock your phone or leave the tab in the background for hours.

Annual dates roll forward automatically: the moment Christmas passes, the card starts counting to next year's date without any maintenance.

Frequently asked questions

Which time zone do these countdowns use?
Your own. Each event counts down to midnight local time on your device, so the number you see matches the date on your calendar.
What happens after an event passes?
Annual events roll straight over to next year's date, so the page never shows an expired countdown.
Can I make my own countdown?
Yes. Create one with any name, date and time, then copy the link to share it. No account is needed.
Are countdowns accurate over long periods?
Yes. The remaining time is recalculated from real timestamps every second rather than counted down, so it stays correct even if your device sleeps.
