FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions about the Age Calculator.

What does the Age Calculator do?

It calculates the exact difference between two dates in years, months and days, plus useful totals (months, weeks, days, hours) and a countdown to the next birthday.

Is the Age Calculator free to use?

Yes. It's free, with no sign-up, no watermark and no limit on how many times you use it.

Is my input safe when I use this tool?

Yes. Both dates you pick are processed entirely on your own device — nothing is sent to a server.

Does the Age Calculator account for leap years?

Yes. A birthday on February 29 is treated as February 28 in years that aren't leap years, so the age and next-birthday countdown stay accurate every year.

Can I calculate someone's age on a date other than today?

Yes. Change the "Age on this date" field to any date — past or future — and the calculator measures the age as of that date instead of today.

What does "Until next birthday" mean?

It's the number of days from the date you're measuring on to the next occurrence of the birth date, so you can see exactly how soon (or how recently) a birthday landed.

Can I use the Age Calculator on my phone?

Yes. The page is fully responsive and works on mobile, tablet and desktop browsers alike.

Does the Age Calculator have any limitations?

It's built for everyday date calculations. Extremely unusual calendar edge cases aside, results are accurate and instant for any date range.
