Convert Minutes to Timestamp

This tool converts raw minute values into full UTC timestamps, based on Unix time starting from 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. For example, if you enter 0, you’ll get 1970-01-01 00:00:00. If you enter 90, you’ll get 1970-01-01 01:30:00. The calculation simply adds X minutes to the epoch and formats it as a full datetime.

This is useful when you’re working with offset data or time durations measured in minutes. Maybe you’re dealing with logs, system tick data, durations from batch jobs, or even archived event tracking any case where minute counts need to be translated into real-world time.

The tool works entirely in your browser. It’s fast, doesn’t store or send any data, and updates instantly as you type. You can also import files, skip invalid lines, export results, and format everything in clean UTC.

How to Use:

  • Paste or type one number per line in the Input Minutes Since Epoch box.
  • Each number represents the number of minutes after 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC.
  • Use the Trim input lines toggle to remove extra spaces automatically.
  • Enable Ignore invalid entries to skip over blank lines, negative values, or text like abc.
  • Enable Maximize output to expand the results box vertically.
  • Results update live, but you can also click Convert to refresh manually.
  • Click Copy Output to copy all timestamps the button flashes “Copied!” briefly.
  • Click Export to File to download the output as .txt.
  • Use Choose File to import values from .txt, .csv, .log, .json, or other safe formats.
  • Click Clear All to reset the tool input, output, toggles, and filename included.

What Convert Minutes to Timestamp can do:

This tool converts minute counts into complete timestamps, based on the Unix epoch. Every line you enter is treated as minutes after 1970-01-01 00:00:00 UTC. That means 1 becomes 1970-01-01 00:01:00, and 90 becomes 1970-01-01 01:30:00. It supports decimal values (e.g., 5.5 becomes 1970-01-01 00:05:30) and ignores invalid or negative numbers if you enable the proper toggle.

The timestamps are formatted in UTC and follow a consistent structure: YYYY-MM-DD HH:MM:SS. This makes them easy to read, sort, store, or pass into scripts, APIs, or databases. You won’t have to worry about timezone drift, and you won’t need to write code to convert or format the data the tool handles it instantly.

It’s especially useful for turning time offsets into real dates, validating log data, or converting time counters into something you can use in a spreadsheet or app. The interface is fast, accessible, and designed for clean output.
