Date Countdown & Difference
The exact time between two dates — or a live countdown to whatever you're waiting for.
What it tells you
- Exact difference — years, months and days (calendar-aware, so leap years and unequal months are handled), plus the same span as total weeks, days, hours and minutes.
- Weekdays & weekends — how many working days and weekend days fall in the range, counting both end dates.
- Live countdown — pick any future moment and watch it tick down to the second.
About this tool
Planning a launch, counting down to a holiday, or just settling how many days are left until a deadline? This does both directions: the exact gap between two moments, and a live countdown to a single date. Everything is computed in your browser using your local time zone — nothing is uploaded.
FAQ
How is the difference between two dates calculated?
The tool shows the exact span as years, months and days (calendar-aware, so it accounts for different month lengths and leap years), and also as a single total of days, weeks, hours and minutes.
Does it count weekdays or working days?
Yes. Alongside the total, it counts how many weekdays (Monday to Friday) and weekend days fall in the range, inclusive of both the start and end date.
Is the countdown live?
Yes. Pick any future date and time and the countdown ticks down every second in days, hours, minutes and seconds. Everything runs in your browser using your local time zone.
