Workflow & Usage
- Paste or type an ISO 8601 date string into the input field.
- The tool automatically parses the value.
- View the converted results instantly:
- Local date & time
- UTC date & time
- Unix timestamp (seconds)
- Unix timestamp (milliseconds)
- Use the Copy button on any output to copy it with one click.
Invalid inputs are safely ignored and won’t affect the rest of the interface.
Supported Conversions
ISO → Local Time
Convert an ISO date into your device’s local timezone.
Example:
2025-03-08T14:32:00Z → 2025-03-08 16:32:00
ISO → UTC
Convert an ISO date into a normalized UTC representation.
Example:
2025-03-08T14:32:00+02:00 → 2025-03-08 12:32:00 UTC
ISO → Unix Timestamp
Convert an ISO date into a Unix timestamp.
Examples:
2025-03-08T14:32:00Z → 1741444320 (seconds)
2025-03-08T14:32:00Z → 1741444320000 (milliseconds)
All conversions are performed instantly as you type.
Common Use Cases
- Inspecting API responses
- Debugging backend logs
- Verifying database timestamps
- Working with ISO dates in JSON payloads
- Converting ISO strings to Unix time
- Comparing timestamps across systems
Tips & Best Practices
- Use UTC output when working with APIs and distributed systems.
- Use local time to verify user-facing dates.
- Always check timezone offsets (
Z,+02:00, etc.) in ISO strings. - Prefer ISO 8601 for data interchange and storage.
How It Works
- ISO strings are parsed using the browser’s built-in Date engine
- Timezone offsets are respected automatically
- Unix timestamps are derived from the parsed date
- Each conversion is computed independently
- All logic runs locally, in real time
