One link.
Everyone hits zero together.

Make a countdown for the moment that matters, share one link, and everyone who opens it watches the exact same clock — across the room or across the world.

Counting to midnight in New York while you sit in Los Angeles? Set the time, pick New York, and the link lands on the same instant for everyone.
Please pick a date and time in the future.

How a shared countdown works

Step 1

Make the countdown

Name the moment, set the date and time, pick a look. Ten seconds, no sign-up, no app to install.

Step 2

Share one link

Text it, drop it in the group chat, post it in the Discord, put it on the event page. The link is the room.

Step 3

Hit zero together

Every screen shows the same clock, anchored to the same moment — so everyone hits zero at the exact same instant, whatever timezone they are in.

Made for the moments you share

A phone timer counts down for one person. CountUsDown counts down for everyone at once — here is where that difference matters most.

Remote game starts & trivia nights

A fair start matters when friends in different homes play together. One synced countdown starts the trivia round, the tournament, the speedrun or the puzzle hunt on the same second for every player — no one jumps early, no one starts late.

New Year’s Eve across time zones

Family in Los Angeles, friends in New York, someone abroad: count down to midnight together on one link, or gather the crew and watch each time zone hit zero in turn. The most shared night of the year, shared properly.

Product launches, drops & ticket sales

Sneaker drops, album releases, ticket on-sales and Kickstarter go-lives are better when the audience waits together. One hype countdown link builds the crowd before the gate opens — and everyone refreshes on the same fraction of a second.

Webinars, streams & live event kickoffs

A clean “starting soon” countdown ends the “is it starting?” chatter. Hosts, panelists and attendees all watch the same clock into the live moment — webinars, virtual conferences, church services, classes and watch parties.

Sports & watch parties

Kickoff, first pitch, the main event, lights out on race day. Fans in different living rooms count down together and hit play at zero, so the big moment lands for everyone at once.

Classroom & team sprints

Timed exams, hackathons, workshop exercises and Pomodoro study sprints run fairer on a clock everyone can see. Start together, break together, and nobody can claim they had less time.

Weddings, birthdays, babies, vacations & milestones

The countdown to the wedding, the due date, the flight, graduation, retirement or the homecoming. Share the link with family and turn the waiting itself into something everyone experiences together.

Surprise moments & synced play

Gender reveals, proposals, and “everyone press play at zero” — a song, a film or a big announcement landing in different homes at the same instant. Coordinate the moment; the countdown carries the suspense.

Concerts, festivals & fandom moments

Presales, tour dates, album drops, season premieres and finale nights run on countdowns. Fan groups already gather around a date and time — a shared link gives the whole fandom one clock to gather around, and zero lands for everyone at once.

Questions, answered

How is this different from the timer on my phone?

A phone timer is private and drifts from everyone else’s. A CountUsDown link is one shared clock: it is anchored to a single moment in time, so every person who opens it sees the same remaining time and reaches zero at the same instant.

Does it work across time zones?

Yes. The countdown targets one exact moment, and each viewer’s clock is rendered from that moment — so a countdown to midnight in New York hits zero simultaneously for the viewer in Los Angeles and the viewer in London.

Do people need an account or an app?

No. The countdown lives inside its link. Anyone who opens the link sees the countdown — no sign-up, no download, nothing to install.

What do people use a shared countdown for?

New Year’s Eve with far-apart family, remote game and trivia starts, product drops and ticket sales, webinar and stream kickoffs, watch parties, classroom and study sprints, and milestones like weddings, due dates and vacations.

Is CountUsDown free?

Yes — creating and sharing a countdown is free.
