Unix to Date

Convert a Unix timestamp back into a readable date and time.

About Unix to Date

The timestamp is divided into days and a remainder, which is broken into hours, minutes and seconds and written out as a date. Reading raw timestamps helps debug logs and APIs where moments are stored as plain seconds.

Formula

Unix to Date

Days = floor(timestamp / 86400); remainder splits into hour, minute and second

Assumptions and limits

  • The result is derived only from the single input listed above. Anything not among them is not part of the calculation.
  • In particular, this calculator does not take inflation, tax, fees or charges or compounding frequency into account.
  • Figures are rounded for display to whole numbers, so totals built from several rounded parts can differ slightly from the unrounded arithmetic.

How these calculators are built and tested is described on the Methodology page. If a figure looks wrong, please report it.
