About Age Calculator
The Age Calculator instantly computes your exact age from your date of birth. Whether you need to know your precise age in years, months, days, or even hours and minutes, this comprehensive tool provides all the details.
How It Works
Our calculator takes your birth date and calculates the exact time elapsed until today (or any target date you specify). It accounts for varying month lengths, leap years, and time zones to provide accurate results.
The Calculation Method
Age is calculated by finding the difference between two dates:
Exact Age = Target Date - Birth Date
The result is then broken down into:
- Complete years (accounting for whether birthday has passed this year)
- Remaining months
- Remaining days
- Total weeks lived
- Total hours lived
- Total minutes lived
- Total seconds lived
How to Use This Calculator
- Enter Your Birth Date: Select or type your date of birth
- Optional: Enter Target Date: By default, calculates age as of today
- View Your Age: Instantly see your age in multiple units

Understanding Age Calculations
Leap Years
Leap years add an extra day (February 29th) every 4 years:
- 2024, 2028, 2032 are leap years
- Century years must be divisible by 400 (2000 was, 1900 wasn't)
- This affects day counts for people born on February 29th
Month Length Variations
Months have different lengths:
- 31 days: January, March, May, July, August, October, December
- 30 days: April, June, September, November
- 28/29 days: February
This affects "months and days" calculations.
Timezone Considerations
For precise calculations (hours/minutes), timezone differences matter. Our calculator uses your local device time.
Frequently Asked Questions
How is exact age calculated?
Exact age is calculated by counting the complete years, months, and days from your birth date to the current date. A year is complete when your birthday passes, a month when that date passes.
What if I was born on February 29?
Leap day birthdays are special! In non-leap years, your birthday is typically celebrated on February 28 or March 1. Our calculator properly handles leap year calculations.
Is decimal age accurate?
Decimal age divides your age in days by 365.25 (accounting for leap years). It's commonly used in medical and scientific contexts but is an approximation.
Why does my age differ slightly from other calculators?
Different calculators may use slightly different methods for handling month boundaries and leap years. Our calculator follows the most common convention.
Can I calculate age for a future date?
Yes! Enter a future date as your "target date" to see how old you'll be at that time.
