# init(timerInterval:countsDown:label:currentValueLabel:) Creates a progress view for showing continuous progress as time passes, with descriptive and current progress labels. ``` nonisolated init(timerInterval: ClosedRange, countsDown: Bool = true, @ContentBuilder label: () -> Label, @ContentBuilder currentValueLabel: () -> CurrentValueLabel) ``` ## Parameters `timerInterval` The date range over which the view should progress. `countsDown` A Boolean value that determines whether the view empties or fills as time passes. If `true` (the default), the view empties. `label` An optional view that describes the purpose of the progress view. `currentValueLabel` A view that displays the current value of the timer. ## Discussion Use this initializer to create a view that shows continuous progress within a date range. The following example initializes a progress view with a range of `start...end`, where `start` is 30 seconds in the past and `end` is 90 seconds in the future. As a result, the progress view begins at 25 percent complete. This example also provides custom views for a descriptive label (Progress) and a current value label that shows the date range. ``` struct ContentView: View { let start = Date().addingTimeInterval(-30) let end = Date().addingTimeInterval(90) var body: some View { ProgressView(timerInterval: start...end, countsDown: false) { Text("Progress") } currentValueLabel: { Text(start...end) } } } ```  By default, the progress view empties as time passes from the start of the date range to the end, but you can use the `countsDown` parameter to create a progress view that fills as time passes, as the above example demonstrates. > Note: Date-relative progress views, such as those created with this > initializer, don’t support custom styles. --- Copyright © 2026 Apple Inc.
