Frequently asked questions

What is a Unix timestamp?

A Unix timestamp (or 'epoch time') is the number of seconds that have elapsed since January 1, 1970 UTC. It's a compact, timezone-independent way to represent a point in time, widely used in databases, logs, and APIs.

Does this tool handle milliseconds or just seconds?

It auto-detects both — a 10-digit number is treated as seconds, a 13-digit number as milliseconds, matching how most languages and databases represent Unix time.

How do I convert to a specific timezone?

The converted date is shown in your browser's local timezone by default, plus UTC for reference — useful for comparing a timestamp across regions without doing manual offset math.
