About ToolsNow
ToolsNow is an independently maintained collection of calculators, converters and small tools for everyday tasks.
Publisher and maintenance
ToolsNow publishes the tools and guides on this site. The project is maintained by an independent developer. Send questions about a tool, a guide or your privacy to the maintainer at [email protected].
ToolsNow provides general explanations and calculations, not individual medical, tax, legal or financial advice. A cited formula or an automated test does not replace a professional review of your circumstances.
Why it exists
A small task should be easy to finish: convert a recipe measurement, check a percentage, tidy a list or prepare a photo for sharing. ToolsNow brings those jobs together in a searchable catalog.
The catalog includes text and developer utilities, money and health estimates, date calculations, cooking converters, image and PDF tools, games of chance and creative image effects.
There are 113 tool entries across 11 categories. Some related tasks share a workspace: use its task controls to switch jobs with the same open files.
How it works
The pages provide the instructions; JavaScript makes the tools interactive. Your browser does the calculations and file processing. Some tools load extra software when you first open a file, so loading the page alone does not guarantee that it is ready to work offline.
Your device’s memory and each tool’s own limits affect what it can handle. Keep your original files and check the downloaded copy, especially when converting formats or removing document features.
What to expect
Processing happens on your device
Files, pasted text and calculation inputs are processed in the browser. Some tools need to download a library or model first. The currency converter fetches exchange-rate data, while the conversion itself happens on your device.
Free access without an account
Open a tool without signing up or choosing a paid plan. File types, batch sizes and processing limits vary by tool. Smaller batches can help when working on a phone or with large documents.
Explanations alongside the tools
Instructions, worked examples and guides help you choose settings and interpret results. Where a formula is shown, compare it with the question you are answering and check the units you entered.
References with their limits
Source notes link to supporting publications or authorities where available. A citation may support a formula or reference band without validating every setting in a tool. Follow dated rate and holiday references before using them for a current decision.
Free access and advertising
The tools are free to use and advertising is currently disabled. The site does not load AdSense or display ad slots. Allowing optional Google Analytics does not turn advertising on.
Website hosting and page analytics are separate from local tool processing. The services involved and your analytics choices are explained in the privacy policy .
How tools and guides are checked
Calculations. Worked examples provide simple cases you can compare with your own result. Automated checks cover parts of the calculations and file helpers; they do not establish that every input or browser will work.
Sources. Notes identify supporting references and gaps in source coverage. A formula citation does not mean a tool has been clinically reviewed or approved by the cited organisation. For current rates and rules, follow the issuing authority.
Guides. Articles explain the tools' behavior, assumptions and trade-offs. Examples use particular inputs and settings; your file may give a different result. Article publication dates and source-review dates serve different purposes. Rewording a page is not a fresh source check.
Limits and corrections. Report a mismatch between the instructions and the tool, as well as incorrect results. Include the page, browser, steps and expected result, using a made-up example when the original is private.
Corrections
If a result, instruction or source link looks wrong, use the contact page to send the details. Include a supporting reference if you have one. Source-review dates should change only when the source has actually been checked.
