How to Use:

This tool tells you exactly how much time has passed since a specific moment down to the second if you want. You start by choosing a past date and time. The field defaults to now, but you can adjust it to anything earlier.

As soon as you enter a value, the result updates live. You’ll see a breakdown of how long ago that date was with options to show:

  • Years and months (like 2 years and 3 months)
  • Days, hours, minutes, and seconds
  • A verbose mode that shows readable date-time formatting like “Wednesday, July 10, 2024 8:00 AM”

The display updates instantly and flashes each time, so you know it’s working. If you enter a future date, it’ll warn you instead.

You can copy the result to your clipboard, export it to a .txt file, or hit Clear All to reset everything back to the default.

And yes, it’s fully browser-based no uploads, no data leaves your device.
