How days are counted
The counter subtracts one calendar date from the other, so the result is a count of whole days, not of 24-hour periods.
- 1Exclusive by defaultFrom Monday to Wednesday is 2 days: the end date isn't counted. Tick “Include the end date” to count it too (3 days), as you would for a hotel stay or an event that runs both days.
- 2Business daysOnly Monday to Friday count. Public holidays differ by country and are not removed, so subtract any that apply to you.
- 3Your time zone“Today” is today on your device's clock. The live countdown runs to midnight at the start of the target date in your time zone, or at its end when the end date is included.
Leap years are handled automatically: 2028 has a 29 February, so it counts 366 days.
Worked example: 1 March to 25 December 2026
From Sunday 1 March 2026 to Friday 25 December 2026, using “Between dates”:
Frequently asked questions
Does it count today?
“Days until” starts from today and doesn’t count the target date, so on 24 December there is 1 day until Christmas. Tick “Include the end date” if you want the target day counted as well.
Are public holidays left out of business days?
No. Business days are Monday to Friday only. Holidays vary by country and region, so subtract the ones that apply to you.
Which time zone does it use?
Your device’s. Day counts use calendar dates, so they don’t change with the clock. The live countdown runs to midnight in your local time, so someone in another time zone sees different hours.
Does it handle leap years and daylight saving?
Yes. 29 February is counted when it exists, and clock changes don’t shift the number of days. The hours figure is days × 24.
Can I share or save a countdown?
Use Copy link. The dates, event name and options are written into the link, so anyone who opens it, including you later, sees the same count updated to their today.
