What problem does this solve?

APIs, log lines, JSON responses and JavaScript Date values use different timestamp units. Confusing seconds and milliseconds changes a date by decades. The converter displays the detected unit, ISO UTC date, both integer epochs and human readable timezone versions.

How to use it

Enter an integer epoch and choose Auto, Seconds or Milliseconds. Auto uses magnitude rather than digit count and can guess wrong for historical or unusual dates: use an explicit unit when known. Alternatively enter a full ISO timestamp with Z or an explicit offset.

Scope and limitations

Conversion is deterministic but your device's clock/timezone and origin system's date semantics may differ. Epoch ranges outside JavaScript Date are rejected. DST gaps, historical calendars and server-side time libraries require additional verification.

Common questions

What is the difference between 10 and 13 digits?

A 10-digit contemporary epoch usually represents seconds; 13-digit values usually represent milliseconds. This is only a convention, so choose the unit explicitly for ambiguous input.

Does this convert between KST and UTC?

Yes. It shows absolute ISO UTC plus Korean standard time and a selected zone.

Can I enter a date without its timezone?

For converting ISO to epoch, no. Provide Z or an explicit offset such as +09:00 to avoid guessing which instant you intended.
