Getting Started

Browse Events

Visit the homepage to see all upcoming countdowns sorted by date. Each card displays the event name, a real-time countdown timer, and a confidence score indicating how reliable the date is.

2

Filter & Sort

Use the filter bar to narrow events down by category (tech, gaming, entertainment, politics). You can also sort by date or confidence and change the sort direction.

Check Confidence

Whenext automatically detects your timezone, but you can manually change it using the timezone selector in the filter bar. All countdown timers adjust accordingly.
