Maximize Impact with a Countdown Video Maker

Flixier's countdown video maker is the perfect tool to enhance viewer engagement and retention.

The best thing of all is that Flixier is simple, intuitive, and free.


 

Countdown Video Maker

Boost user engagement

Create hype around product launches or events using our countdown video maker. With every second that passes, viewers become increasingly engaged in what happens next. Use a catchy font, some music, and intriguing visuals from Flixier’s extensive stock library to add an extra layer of excitement.


 

Structure exercise videos

Countdown timers are a standard in fitness instruction. They keep participants aware of the remaining duration for each set or round. Create a countdown timer to help guide your viewers through their workouts, establishing breaks and intervals with ease. This way, you can focus more on providing quality workout advice while the timer handles time management.

Improve live broadcasts

Hosting a webinar, live stream, or an educational session with quizzes or experiments? Use Flixier as an intro maker to insert a few minutes of a countdown timer at the beginning, allowing late joiners to hop on without missing any important points. This also applies to Q&A sessions, where you might want to limit how long each participant can speak or answer questions.

Get the most out of Flixier

Beyond a countdown timer, Flixier offers multiple features for creating and enhancing your videos. Add animations, graphics, sound effects, or even AI-generated voiceovers to make your videos stand out from the crowd. So why stop at a simple countdown timer? With Flixier, you get to do so much more.

My main criteria for an editor was that the interface is familiar and most importantly that the renders were in the cloud and super fast. Flixier more than delivered in both. I've now been using it daily to edit Facebook videos for my 1M follower page.
