Counts the days since your most recent birthday, and the days remaining until the next one. The two always add up to the length of that birthday year — 365 or 366.

How to use the days since your birthday

1 Enter your date of birth.
2 Read how many days have passed since the last one.
3 The next one is shown too.

The two numbers together are a small sanity check on the calendar: days since plus days until equals the length of the year that birthday sits in. If your birthday falls after 29 February in a leap year, that total is 366; otherwise 365. It is the clearest illustration of why "a year" is not a fixed number of days.

Counting since rather than until is what you want for anything measured from an anniversary — a warranty that started on the day, a subscription that renews annually, a probation period. In all of those the count that matters is elapsed days, and it is worth knowing that the count is inclusive of neither end: the day of the birthday itself reads as zero, and tomorrow reads as one.

For a leap-day birthday the same 1 March convention applies as everywhere else here, which means the count since resets on 1 March in a common year and on 29 February in a leap one.

Questions

Yes — to 365, or 366 if a 29 February falls between them. That is the clearest demonstration that a year is not a fixed count.
