How Chrono works
From idea to live countdown in under a minute
01
Create a countdown
Pick a date and name the moment, a birthday, trip, launch, or deadline. No account needed to start.
02
Customize and track it
Add a cover image, category, and notes. Mark it recurring if it returns every year, and set a reminder so it doesn't sneak up on you.
03
Share or sync across devices
Keep it private, invite people by username, or make it public. Sign in to sync across web, iOS, and Android.

A birthday countdown, a recurring holiday timer, or a shareable countdown for the whole group, Chrono adapts to the moment.
Recurring events

Make a countdown public and share the link, or invite specific people by username to a private one.

Frequently asked questions

Are my countdowns private by default?
Yes. New countdowns are private until you choose to share them with specific people or make them public.
Can I share a countdown with other people?

Yes. Add push or email reminders at a set time before any countdown's date.
Does Chrono support recurring events?
