Frequently Asked Questions

How do I calculate 1 week ago in different time zones?

To calculate 1 week ago, subtract 7 days from today. This gives the same date globally since it’s based on days, not exact times.

Time zones only shift specific times (like a 3 PM meeting), but dates remain unaffected. So, the result will be consistent worldwide.

Does calculating 1 change in leap years?

No, because weeks are based on days, not months or years. Whether it’s a leap year or not, 1 week ago is still 7 days before today.

This is different from calculations involving months or years, which do need to account for leap years.
