Frequently asked questions
Does the countdown use my time zone?
Yes. The event time is interpreted in the visitor's local time zone.
Can I share the countdown?
Yes. The date, time and title are stored in the URL query parameters.
What happens after the event?
The timer stops at zero and shows that the event time has arrived.
Does it keep running in the background?
Browsers may pause background tabs, but the countdown recalculates from the actual current time when visible.
Is the event title stored on a server?
No. It is only in your browser state and in the URL if you share it.
