How your countdown link works
Understanding how we keep your countdown safe and shareable.
Clean, short links
We create a simple, short URL for your countdown. No long, confusing links to share with friends and family.
No personal info needed
We don't require an account, email, or any personal information. Just create your countdown and share it.
Links can't be altered
Once you copy your link, no one can change it. Recipients will see exactly what you created.
Frequently asked questions
Is my data safe?
Yes! We only store your countdown details (title, date, message, and colors) to generate a clean, short link. We don't require any personal information, account, or login. The information you enter is only what you choose to share.
Can someone change my countdown after I share it?
No. Once you copy your link, the countdown settings are locked in that URL. Recipients will see exactly what you created. If you share the "editor" link, they can make their own version, but that won't change your original link.
Do I need to create an account?
No account needed! Just create your countdown, copy the link, and share it. Everything works right in your browser without signing up.
What's the difference between editor and timer-only links?
The "editor" link shows the full page where recipients can see and customize the countdown. The "timer only" link shows just the countdown in full screen - perfect for displaying on a TV or sharing a clean, focused view.
Is this really free?
The basic countdown creator is completely free - set dates, add messages, choose colors or gradients, and share links at no cost. Premium features like custom photo uploads may have a small fee to help us cover storage costs.
Have a feature idea?
