Questions

Frequently asked questions

Can I see how old I will be on my next birthday?

Yes, by setting the second date to that day. The panel gives the age on any date you pick; it does not count down or remind you.

Why do the totals not match the years, months and days?

They are the same span written two ways. Years, months and days follows the calendar; total days is a plain count of days passed, which is 365 or 366 for a year.

Can I use it for something that is not a person?

Yes. Any two dates work, so a founding date or a completion date gives the age of a company or a building in the same format.

Is the date of birth stored?

No. It is used for the arithmetic in your browser tab and nothing else. It is not uploaded, not stored, and it is gone when you close the tab.

Background

Which format to read

Enter the birthday and the date to measure to. Today is filled in for you, and any past or future date can replace it. The answer breaks down into years, months and days.

  • Years, months and days is the format people use out loud, and it follows real month lengths.
  • Total days and total weeks are easier to compare, which helps when planning around a date.
  • Setting a future date shows the age on that day, so a birthday ahead can be checked directly.
