Duration Calculator

Time

Add up a list of durations, or subtract some, without juggling carries by hand. Enter each duration in hours, minutes and seconds, set the row to add (+) or subtract (−), and the running total appears instantly — normalized to h:m:s and also shown as decimal hours, total minutes and total seconds. Great for timesheets and billable hours, totaling video clip or lap times, working out how long a set of tasks takes, or any time-on-time arithmetic. A negative total is shown with a minus sign. Everything is computed locally in your browser.

Frequently asked questions

Can I subtract durations?
Yes. Click the green + button on any row to switch it to a red −, and that duration is subtracted from the total. The result can go negative, shown with a leading minus.
What are the decimal forms for?
Total hours (e.g. 2.25) is handy for billing and pay; total minutes and total seconds are useful for exports, scripts or further math.
Do minutes and seconds need to be under 60?
No. You can enter 90 minutes or 200 seconds and the total normalizes correctly — the h:m:s result always carries into the right units.
Is anything sent to a server?
No. All the arithmetic runs in your browser; nothing is uploaded.
