How to count your time together
- Tap the date box and pick the day you got together: a first date, a first kiss or the day you made it official.
- The time since then appears in years, months and days, with the total in days and weeks below it.
- Under that are the next milestones: your next anniversary, the next round number of days and, in the first year, the next month mark.
- Tap “Copy” to copy the count for a card or a message.
When to count your days
Most couples know the year they got together. Fewer know that they passed 1,000 days last spring. One date shows both, and the next day worth marking.
Before an anniversary
Check the exact count for the card, or find out the day you started is closer than you thought.
A quiet evening
Look up the day it started together, then talk about what you remember of it.
Planning ahead
Round numbers of days rarely fall on an anniversary, so they make an easy extra date night.
Milestones worth marking
100 days
About three months and a week in. Early enough that you still remember the first date in detail; a good moment for one of the anniversary questions you have not asked yet.
1,000 days
Two years and about nine months. It rarely lands near an anniversary, so it is a free extra celebration. Plan a small one from the anniversary date ideas.
Every year after
Each anniversary falls on the same date. The calculator counts a start on the 29th, 30th or 31st on the last day of shorter months, so the count never skips a month.
Picking the start date
- Agree on the day first. Some couples count from the first date, some from the day they made it official; either is right if you both like it.
- Not sure of the exact day? Look for the first photo together or the first message you sent each other.
- Long distance? Count from the day you met, online or in person, and keep the day you closed the distance as a second date to mark.
Frequently asked questions
How does the calculator count months and days?
It counts whole months from your start date to today, on the same day of each month, then the days left over. Twelve months make a year. A start on the 31st counts on the last day of shorter months, and the total in days is exact.
Is the date we pick saved?
No. The date stays on this page. It is not stored on your device, not added to the web address and not sent anywhere. Reload the page and it is gone.
Which day counts as today?
Today on the device you are using, at your local midnight. A partner in another time zone may see one day more or less for a few hours.
What should we do on an anniversary?
