# Countdown timer

## Block settings

This simple yet effective feature allows you to create a sense of urgency around sales, product launches, or special events by displaying a countdown on your product pages. While the timer itself handles the countdown, you have complete control over the text displayed, enabling you to craft messages that resonate with your audience and align with the specific event or promotion.
