Other Tools You May Need

Calculate health & fitness

Use this section for personal metrics and training numbers—fast checks you can do without spreadsheets. The Age Calculator focuses on calendar-aware age (years/months/days) and can be paired with other date tools when you need more precision.

Plan dates & calendars

Use this section to answer “when is it?” and “how far away?” questions—perfect for scheduling, HR, events, and planning. Age Calculator also references pairing with “time between dates” when you need time-of-day precision beyond calendar age.

Run timers & stay on track

Use this section when you need a simple on-screen clock or timer tools for study, workouts, cooking, or focused work sessions. Pair these with the To‑Do List App if you want a lightweight “tasks + timer” workflow in the browser.

Convert units & durations

Use this section to convert measurements and time quantities for everyday tasks, engineering, cooking, and travel. Unit Converter supports multiple categories (including temperature with C/F/K), making it a good “one stop” option before using the narrower time converters.

Budget & finance

Use this section for quick money math—pricing, conversions, loans, and everyday calculations. Currency Converter supports using live rates when available and allows a manual rate override when the rate API is unavailable.

Network & system checks

Use this section to troubleshoot connectivity, inspect network basics, and confirm device/screen details before sharing screenshots or doing QA. Internet Speed Test measures approximate download/upload speeds to the server and notes results can vary by network and server conditions.

Create shareable assets

Use this section to produce things you can paste, share, or publish—QR codes, formatted notes, visuals, and quick accessibility checks. The To‑Do List App emphasizes a simple in-browser workflow (instant add/clear) that pairs well with Markdown drafts and quick shareables.

Random & fun generators

Use this section when you need randomness for testing, icebreakers, or lightweight content. UUIDs are useful when you need unique identifiers for mock data, tracking links, or database keys.

Plan & track tasks

Use this section when you want lightweight productivity tools that live in a tab—capture tasks, structure notes, and timebox work. The To‑Do List App runs as a simple browser-based checklist with quick add-and-clear actions.

File Size Time Estimator

File size time estimator is useful when planning uploads and downloads for backups, large videos, software builds, or client deliverables where waiting time affects schedules. This tool estimates how long a transfer will take based on the relationship between file size and connection speed, giving an ETA that is easier to act on than raw Mbps. The core calculation follows a standard rule: time in seconds equals file size (in bits) divided by transfer rate (bits per second), which is why file-size units and bandwidth units must be aligned. Because file sizes are commonly expressed in bytes (MB/GB) while network speeds are often in bits per second (Mbps), converting bytes to bits (multiply by 8) prevents the classic “8× off” mistake. The estimator is practical for decision-making, like whether a 4K video export should be uploaded now or scheduled overnight, or whether a hotspot connection is sufficient for a deadline. It also supports comparing plan upgrades: entering the same file size with different Mbps values shows how much time is realistically saved, not just how big the number looks. For teams, sharing an ETA helps coordinate handoffs—design can upload before QA starts—so delays are anticipated rather than discovered late. Since it runs in the browser, it can be used quickly alongside a speed test result to translate “my upload is 12 Mbps” into an understandable time estimate for a specific file.
