Frequently Asked Questions

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (also called epoch time) is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 00:00:00 UTC. It is widely used in programming, databases, and APIs.

What is the difference between seconds and milliseconds?

Unix timestamps in seconds are 10 digits (e.g., 1700000000). Millisecond timestamps are 13 digits (e.g., 1700000000000). The tool auto-detects which format you enter.

Does this tool handle time zones?

The tool converts timestamps to your browser's local time zone by default and also shows the UTC equivalent. Unix timestamps are always based on UTC.

Is my data sent to a server?

No. All conversion happens entirely in your browser. Nothing is transmitted to any server.
