Common Mistakes to Avoid

Pasting ambiguous dates such as 03/04/1990 without clarifying the format—use YYYY-MM-DD or spell out the month.
Entering a birth date that is still in the future, which produces a negative age and triggers an error.
Forgetting to adjust the reference date when auditing past compliance, causing a one-year discrepancy in the report.
Confusing the milestone countdown with the next-birthday countdown; milestones track the next five-year interval.

Examples

HR verifies a new hire turns 21 before an orientation by setting the reference date to the first training shift.
A pediatric clinic tracks how many days remain before a patient's birthday to schedule well-visit reminders.
A loyalty team exports the milestone countdown to trigger surprise-and-delight campaigns for 30th, 40th, or 50th birthdays.

FAQ

Can I calculate age on a future or past date?

Yes. Enter the DOB, then fill the reference date with any ISO string to see the exact age on that day—helpful for visas, sports brackets, and policy cutoffs.

Does the tool handle leap-year birthdays?

Leap-day birthdays are normalized automatically. During non-leap years the countdown uses the last valid day of February so reminders stay accurate.

What date formats are supported?

Use ISO formats like 1990-05-12 or 1990-05-12T08:30:00-05:00. The parser also reads YYYY/MM/DD, but ISO avoids MM/DD versus DD/MM confusion.

Can I include the time of day?

Yes—append the time and timezone to the DOB or reference date (for example 2004-11-07T14:15:00Z) to reflect hours and minutes lived.

Is my data stored or uploaded anywhere?

No. Everything runs locally in your browser, so HR rosters, student records, and medical data never leave your device.

Can I compare two people at once?

Run the tool separately for each person. Because calculations are instant and local, you can open multiple tabs or copy the results into your workflow.
