Frequently asked questions

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (or epoch) is a number representing how many seconds (or milliseconds) have elapsed since January 1, 1970, at 00:00:00 UTC.

Is it free?

Yes. It is completely free, no sign-up required, and has no usage limits.

Is my data stored?

No. Everything is computed locally in your browser; nothing is sent to a server.

Does it support negative timestamps?

Yes. Negative timestamps represent dates before 1970 (before the Unix epoch).

Seconds vs milliseconds?

Second-based timestamps typically have 10 digits; millisecond-based have 13. The tool detects the unit automatically.
