Auto-update Age

A Carrd plugin to auto-update your age or any age-related number.

👇 The age number below auto-updates based on the current year. It really does! Try changing the Date & Time settings of your computer to see the difference. This means if you wrote something like "my age is 20", you won't need to manually update it to 21 next year - it will auto-update.

"Hello, I'm born in 2000 and my age is {age}.""The company started in 2000. In the past {age} years, we had grown..."

ℹī¸ This is done using a native Carrd text element to set the auto-updating age – that means you can edit the style of the text easily without code. Just type {age} normally and it automagically shows the age number based on the current year. Requires Pro Plus.
