How the countdown works

The calculator compares today's date with the date you choose and counts the whole days between them. Weeks are the days divided by 7, and months are an approximate figure based on an average month length, so use the day count for anything exact.

Frequently asked questions

Does it include today?

It shows full days remaining. A date that is tomorrow shows 1 day, and today shows 0.
