Create your first countdown
Sign in, make a list and add the people and events you're counting down to.
Updated October 3, 2026
County keeps countdowns in lists — one for birthdays, one for a trip, one for anything you're waiting on. Each countdown ticks to the second and shows the exact date underneath.
Make a list
- 1Sign in with your Google account. There is no separate password to create.
- 2On Your lists, choose New list and give it a name, such as “Birthdays”.
- 3County opens the new list, ready for its first countdown.
Add a countdown
- 1In the list, choose Add countdown.
- 2Pick Person for someone's day, or Event for anything else.
- 3Enter a name and the date and time, then save.
Countdowns are sorted with the soonest first. When one reaches zero it stops and says it has arrived — it never starts counting up.
Change or remove things
Use the pencil on a countdown to edit it and the bin to delete it. On a list you own, the pencil and bin at the top rename or delete the whole list; deleting asks you to confirm first.
