UTC → Local Time Chrome extension security report

Tired of doing timezone math in your head every time a status page, changelog, GitHub issue, or log shows a time in “UTC”? UTC → Local Time fixes that. It quietly scans the pages you visit, finds UTC and GMT timestamps in the text, and rewrites them in YOUR local time — right where they appear. The original is never lost: hover over any converted time to see exactly what the page said. ➤ WORKS EVERYWHERE Status pages, dashboards, changelogs, CI logs, forums, issue trackers, release notes — anywhere a time is written in UTC. ➤ HANDLES THE TRICKY CASES Many sites split a timestamp across separate elements (for example status pages that put the date and time in different tags). A simple find-and-replace misses those. This extension reconstructs the full timestamp and converts it correctly. ➤ RECOGNIZES THE FORMATS YOU ACTUALLY SEE • ISO 8601 — 2026-06-20T18:02:33Z and with offsets (+05:30) • “Jun 20, 18:02 UTC” and “Jun 20, 2026, 6:02 PM UTC” • HTTP / RFC dates — “Sat, 20 Jun 2026 18:02:33 GMT” • “2026/06/20 18:02 UTC”, “18:02 UTC”, and more • 12-hour and 24-hour times, upper or lower case ➤ SMART, NOT NOISY It deliberately ignores things that only look like times — aspect ratios (16:9), scores (3:2), version numbers (v1.2.3), durations (“5:00 remaining”), and times in other zones (18:02 EST). It also leaves code blocks, text inputs, and editable fields untouched. ➤ KEEPS UP WITH LIVE PAGES Times that load later or update in real time (single-page apps, auto-refreshing dashboards) are converted as they appear. ➤ YOU’RE IN CONTROL A toolbar popup lets you: • Turn conversion on or off • Choose Auto / 12-hour / 24-hour • Show or hide your time-zone label (e.g. EDT) • Disable it on specific sites • See how many times were converted on the current page ➤ PRIVATE BY DESIGN Everything runs locally in your browser. No accounts, no tracking, NO network requests, and no data collection. The extension asks for a single permission — storage — only to remember your settings. It needs no access to your accounts or browsing history; it simply re-renders text that’s already on the page. Install it, and UTC times just start making sense.
