How does it know if my number is seconds or milliseconds?

It checks the number of digits — 13 or more digits is treated as milliseconds, fewer as seconds.

What is a Unix timestamp?

It's the number of seconds (or milliseconds) that have elapsed since January 1, 1970, 00:00:00 UTC — a common way computers represent a point in time.

Is my date data sent anywhere?

No — conversion happens entirely in your browser.

Can I convert a negative timestamp (before 1970)?

Yes — negative Unix timestamps representing dates before 1970 are supported.

What if I enter an invalid date?

You'll see a clear error message asking for a valid date or timestamp.

Does this account for time zones?

Yes — results are shown in both UTC and your browser's detected local time zone.

What Is a Timestamp Converter?

This tool converts between human-readable dates and Unix timestamps automatically — paste in a date and get back its Unix timestamp, or paste in a Unix timestamp (seconds or milliseconds) and get back the matching calendar date, in ISO 8601, UTC and your local time zone.

It auto-detects which kind of input you've given it based on whether it looks like a number or a date string, and further guesses whether a numeric timestamp is in seconds or milliseconds based on its length — removing the need to specify a direction manually for most everyday use.

Astuces

A 10-Digit Number Is Usually Seconds

Most Unix timestamps in seconds are 10 digits (until the year 2286); 13 digits usually means milliseconds.

Use the Relative Time for Quick Sanity Checks

The "X days ago" style output is a quick way to confirm a timestamp is roughly what you expect.
