Question 1

How is my exact age calculated?

Accepted Answer

The calculator determines the difference between your date of birth and today (or a chosen target date) as full years, months and days. Months of different lengths and leap years are handled correctly — exactly the way age is stated in everyday life.

Question 2

How many years are 10,000 days?

Accepted Answer

10,000 days is roughly 27 years and 4 months. The 10,000th day of life therefore falls around age 27 and is a popular reason to celebrate an unusual "birthday". The calculator shows you the exact date of your next round day of life.

Question 3

Why can I enter a target date?

Accepted Answer

By default the calculator counts up to today. If you enter a future target date, it also shows a countdown — for example to a milestone birthday, an exam or a holiday. If the target date is in the past, it calculates your age as of that exact date.

Question 4

Is my time of birth taken into account?

Accepted Answer

No. The calculator works on a daily basis using the calendar date. The exact time of birth is not included because it is irrelevant to age, days lived and weekday. Day-level accuracy is entirely sufficient for the usual figures.

Question 5

Is my data stored?

Accepted Answer

No. The entire calculation runs directly in your browser. No birth data is sent to a server, stored or analysed. You can share your result via a link — the data is then only in that address and nowhere else.
