Flexible timer period

You can set your countdown clock for any duration by choosing required units and their value. Elfsight Countdown Timer includes days, hours, minutes, and seconds. You can show them all or hide the units that you don’t use in your timer.

Editable labels of time units

For each time unit, there’s a label that you can change to your taste. Edit the text of the label, for example, type time units in your language or shorten the words to letters. If you want a clean look of the countdown widget, you can hide the labels away and do without them.
