Updating the Timer Timezone

Written by Zach Siecinski

How it works

The selected timezone applies to:

  • End date/time timers

  • Daily recurring window timers

👉 This means all countdown behavior will follow the timezone you choose.


How to update your timezone

  1. Go to Shopify Admin → Online Store → Edit Theme

  2. Open your Flash Countdown Timer block

  3. Find the Timezone setting

  4. Select your desired timezone from the dropdown

  5. Click Save


Example

If you select:

  • Timezone: America/New_York

  • End time: 6:00 PM

Then the timer will end at 6:00 PM Eastern Time, regardless of where your store or customers are located.


Important things to know

  • The timezone must be selected from the dropdown (no manual entry)

  • All timer logic follows this timezone

  • Make sure it matches your intended audience or store location
