Timestamp Converter
The Timestamp Converter switches between Unix epoch seconds and readable dates, and shows the value in multiple time zones. It is the quickest way to debug log times and API timestamps.
Key Features
- Epoch to date and date to epoch
- Seconds and milliseconds
- Multiple time zones at once
- Current time helper
- Local only
Use Cases
- Read a timestamp from a server log
- Convert a date into epoch for an API
- Compare times across regions
- Debug off-by-1000 (seconds vs ms) bugs
How to Use
- Enter an epoch or a date
- Choose seconds or milliseconds
- See the converted value and time zones
- Copy what you need
Practical Tips
- Check whether the source uses seconds or milliseconds
- Time zones change the wall-clock but not the instant
- Use UTC to avoid daylight-saving confusion
FAQ
- Seconds or milliseconds?
- Many systems use seconds; JavaScript uses milliseconds. Verify the source.
- Why does the date look wrong?
- Usually a time-zone or unit (s vs ms) mismatch.
