Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
A Unix timestamp is the number of seconds elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC (Unix epoch). It's universally used in programming to represent dates and times in a standardized, timezone-independent way.
Our tool converts in both directions: enter a timestamp (e.g., 1609459200) to get a readable date (e.g., 01/01/2021 00:00:00), or enter a date to get the corresponding timestamp.
Yes, our tool shows date/time in your local timezone, in UTC, and allows specifying other timezones. This is important because Unix timestamps are always in UTC but displayed locally.
Traditional Unix timestamps are in seconds. JavaScript and some systems use milliseconds (1000 times larger). Our tool automatically detects the format and converts correctly in both cases.
Yes, you can enter two timestamps and the tool will calculate the difference in days, hours, minutes, and seconds. Useful for calculating durations, age, elapsed time, or time remaining until an event.
