Countdown Timer

Build a live countdown to any date in three styles — preview it below, then copy a self-contained snippet to embed it on your own site.

Label (optional) Target date & time

Include a small "countdown by UtilBuddy" credit link in the embed

Live preview

Embed code (JavaScript)

Embed code (iframe)

Use this instead if your site strips out <script> tags (some CMS/page builders do) — it works the same way, just loaded from a URL in an iframe.

How to use this tool

Set a target date/time, pick a style, and the live preview above updates immediately — it's running the exact same code that ends up in the embed snippet below, so what you see is exactly what you'll get.

Self-contained embed The snippet has no dependency on utilbuddy.com — paste the <div> and <script> anywhere and it keeps working on its own, styled inline so it won't clash with your site's existing CSS.
When it ends Once the target time passes, the widget shows "Countdown complete!" and stops updating — it won't count into negative numbers.
Multiple countdowns on one page The embed code uses a fixed element id (utilbuddy-countdown) - if you want more than one on the same page, change the id in both the <div> and the script to something unique for each.
