Countdown days = target UTC date − from UTC date.
Worked example
Worked example
There are 14 days remaining.
How it works
Enter an explicit from date and target date. Results stay shareable because they do not depend on the browser clock.
Frequently asked questions
Why enter an explicit from date?
An explicit from date keeps the countdown stable across devices and refreshes instead of silently using 'today'.
What does direction mean?
Direction shows whether the target is still ahead, today, or already past relative to the from date.
Are hours and minutes included?
No. This countdown is day-based using UTC calendar dates.
