Frequently asked questions
- Does this use my local timezone?
- Yes. “Today” is based on your browser’s local calendar date, not UTC, so the result matches what you see on your clock.
- Are business days supported?
- This tool counts all calendar days unless a separate business-day mode is shown on the page. For weekdays-only math, use a business-day calculator if available.
- How is this related to days between two dates?
- Days from today is anchored to now; days-between finds the span between any two dates you choose.
