Assumptions

  • Times are 24-hour clock values with no specific calendar date attached — the "day change" output shows whether the result crosses into the next or previous day, not a specific date.

Frequently asked questions

What happens when the result crosses midnight?

The time wraps around a 24-hour clock, and the "day change" output tells you whether the result falls on the next day, the previous day, or the same day.

Can I subtract time instead of adding?

Yes — choose "Subtract" to go backward from the start time instead.

Is this the same as the Time Duration Calculator?

No — this calculator finds a new time by adding/subtracting a duration. The Time Duration Calculator instead finds the duration between two given times.
