FAQ

Does the tool handle milliseconds?

Yes. Timestamps longer than 11 digits are treated as milliseconds. Standard 10-digit timestamps are treated as seconds.

What timezone is used for 'local time'?

The timezone of your browser and operating system. UTC is always shown separately for reference.
