Is it possible to see the time a giveaway ends before it has started?

I know you have the review screen when creating a giveaway to check if everything is correct (and I should just properly check it) but I can be a bit impatience at times and find it a bit tedious to double check everything, especially when creating multiple giveaways at once.

I know you can see the remaining time once the giveaway goes live, but would like to know if it is possible to see the time a giveaway will last if you made the giveaway in advance (I tend to do this quite often for event and invite only giveaways to make sure I won't actually forget to make the giveaway).

Anyway here is a little something for your time

The giveaway review should be enough for this.

Potato, that is a statement not a question!

Did you try hovering over the timer? I only used it during active and ended GAs though

he wants to know the end time of a GA not yet started
That's not possible, as only the start or end time is shown, nothing more

Thanks for the quick reply, It's rather unfortunate you can't see it but I guess I will just have to deal with it.

This has bothered me for a long time. I created a thread about it a couple years ago, but it didn't get much attention.

If someone else creates a giveaway, you can see when it goes live, but you don't know if it will only be open for an hour or a week. If it is something you really want to enter, you have to make sure to check the giveaway again soon after it starts in case it isn't open for long.

Also, if you create a giveaway yourself and then want to add some more giveaways that end at the same time, but don't remember the exact time or date you made it end on, it's not possible to create another giveaway that ends at the same time unless you wait for it to start because you can't see the info.

Thanks, I guess option 3.26 will come in handy!
