Days from today
The date any number of days, business days, weeks or months from today, or before it.
How the date is counted
Today is day 0, so 1 day from today is tomorrow. The tool adds the days to today’s date in your time zone and shows the weekday of the result. Weeks are 7 days each. Months follow the calendar and stop at the end of a shorter month: one month after January 31 is the last day of February.
Choose business days to skip Saturdays and Sundays. Public holidays are not skipped, because they differ by country; the business days from a date tool counts from any start date. Switch to before today to count backwards, or use what was the date for dates in the past.

- Deadlines and notice periods: a contract that ends 30 days after notice, an invoice due in 45 or 60 days, a 90-day probation period.
- Returns and trials: the last day to send something back, or the day a free trial turns into a subscription.
- Travel: how long you can stay under a visa rule, or how many days are left until a trip.
- Goals and challenges: the finish line of a 30-day challenge, a 12-week plan or a 100-day project.

How do I find the date a number of days from today?
Type the number of days above. The tool adds them to today’s date in your time zone and shows the date, its weekday and its week number. Today counts as day 0.
Does the count include today?
No. Today is day 0, so 1 day from today is tomorrow and 7 days from today is the same weekday next week.
How do I count business days from today?
Choose business days in the unit menu. The tool then skips Saturdays and Sundays. Public holidays are not skipped, so add them yourself if they fall inside the period.
Is 30 days the same as one month?
Not always. Months have 28 to 31 days, so one month from January 31 is the end of February, while 30 days from January 31 is early March. Pick months in the unit menu to count calendar months.
Can I keep a countdown to the date on my iPhone?
Yes. Add the date in Left as an Ahead date and put the Ahead widget on your Home Screen or Lock Screen. It counts down every day.
Keep the countdown in sight.
Add the date to Ahead in Left and a widget counts it down on your Home Screen, Lock Screen and Apple Watch, with a reminder before the day.
Scan or search "Left" on the App Store.
