Why Use Timestamp Converter?

Tips & Best Practices

• Check if your timestamp is in seconds or milliseconds - most Unix timestamps are seconds
• Use UTC timestamps for global applications and convert to local time in UI
• Store timestamps in seconds precision unless milliseconds are specifically needed
• Consider timezone implications when working with user-facing applications
• Test timestamp conversion with known values to verify correct interpretation
• Use current timestamp feature to get reference values for testing and debugging
