Common questions
How do I know if my timestamp is in seconds or milliseconds?+
Length is the giveaway: a current epoch in seconds is 10 digits, in milliseconds it is 13. This tool detects it from the magnitude, so pasting either works without you choosing.
What is the Unix epoch?+
Midnight UTC on 1 January 1970. Unix timestamps count the seconds elapsed since then, which is why a value of 0 shows as that date and negative values point at earlier ones.
