2. Install the app on your Shopify store. This is usually just a matter of clicking a button and following the prompts.

3. Configure the app according to your needs. This will vary depending on the app you choose, but most will let you choose things like the date and time of the countdown, what text to display, and what color scheme to use.

4. Add the countdown timer to your store. Again, this will vary depending on the app, but most will let you add it to specific pages or products, or embed it in your theme’s code.

5. Test everything out to make sure it’s working correctly. Once you’re sure everything is working as it should be, go ahead and launch your sale or promotion!

Adding a countdown timer to your Shopify store is an easy way to create a sense of urgency and drive sales.
