Turn your routines into years.
See how much of your life has gone to sleeping, working, commuting and screens — and how much time you can still reclaim.
Takes less than a minute. Nothing you enter leaves your browser.
You enter your age and a handful of habits: how long you sleep, how long you have worked, how far you travel to get there, how much time goes to your phone and to television. Each one is turned into hours, then into days and calendar years, and measured against the total number of hours you have been alive.
A year is counted as 365.2425 days, so leap years are already in the arithmetic. Nothing is rounded until the moment a number is printed on screen.
One hour a day is 365 hours a year. Over a decade that is 3,650 hours — more than 152 full days, and about 250 days of the time you are normally awake.
Small daily amounts feel harmless because we experience them one day at a time, in minutes. They only become visible when you multiply them by the number of days in a life.
A calendar year counts all 24 hours of every day, including the hours you are asleep. A waking-life year counts only the hours you are normally awake.
If you sleep eight hours a night, a waking-life year is about 5,844 hours instead of 8,766. The same reclaimed hours therefore make up a bigger share of the life you actually experience. It is a way of describing time, not extra lifespan — nothing here makes anyone live longer.
No. They are honest arithmetic applied to rough averages. Your sleep changed, your job changed, your phone did not exist for the first part of your life.
Read the result as an order of magnitude. The difference between "a few months" and "a decade" is the part that means something; the decimal place is not.
Yes, and in real life they constantly do — a phone in your hand while the television is on, a podcast during the commute, a meal at the desk.
If the numbers you enter add up to more hours than you have lived, the result says so instead of inventing free time out of the difference. Adjust the values until each hour is only counted once.
No. There is no account, no database and no server doing the maths. Your age and your habits stay inside this browser tab and disappear when you close it.
The only thing this site saves is the language you pick by hand, so it opens in that language next time. The page also shows ads from Google, and those set their own cookies — separate from the calculator, which never sends them anything.
Every calculation on this page runs in your browser. Your age, your habits and your results are never sent anywhere, never stored on a server and never attached to an identity, because there is no account and no database.
When you open the site root, an approximate country lookup by IP address is used once, to decide whether to open the English or the Brazilian Portuguese version. Only the two-letter country code is read; the address itself is never stored, and no location permission is ever requested. If you choose a language from the header, that choice is saved in this browser and the country lookup stops happening.
Share images are drawn on your own device. Nothing is uploaded when you generate one — and when you tap Instagram, TikTok or Share, your operating system takes over and only you can decide whether to publish.
This site shows ads from Google. To serve them, Google and its partners may set cookies and use browsing data according to their own policies, which is outside our control; visitors in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom and Switzerland are asked for consent before that happens. What advertising never receives is what you type into the calculator — your age and your habits are processed on this page and are not sent to Google or to anyone else.
