Unix timestamps count seconds since January 1, 1970 (UTC). They're the standard for storing dates in databases, APIs, and programming languages like JavaScript, Python, and PHP.
Key features include: real-time current timestamp display, instant conversion, support for seconds and milliseconds, multiple date formats (Local, UTC, ISO), quick preset buttons (Now, Yesterday, Tomorrow, Week Ago), and 100% client-side processing.
β Everything You Need to Know
A Unix timestamp (or Epoch time) counts the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 at 00:00:00 UTC. It's a timezone-independent way to represent time, used universally in programming and databases.
JavaScript uses milliseconds (13 digits), while most other systems use seconds (10 digits). Our converter auto-detects which format you're using. Toggle between them using the Seconds/Milliseconds buttons.
Local shows time in your timezone. UTC shows time in Coordinated Universal Time (no offset). ISO is the international standard format (YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm:ss.sssZ) β ideal for APIs and data exchange.
