Duration Calculator

Add up multiple HH:MM:SS durations and see the total, average and breakdown.

Paste a list of durations (HH:MM:SS or HH:MM, one per line) and the calculator sums them, shows an average and lists each line's parsed value. Hours can exceed 24 — useful for tracking total project time.

Common use cases

  • Sum daily timesheet entries into weekly totals
  • Add up movie or playlist runtimes
  • Total race split times or workout durations
  • Compute time spent across multiple meetings

Frequently asked questions

Which input formats are accepted?
Two-part HH:MM (e.g. 1:30) and three-part HH:MM:SS (e.g. 1:30:45). Decimal seconds are accepted but rounded in the totals display.
Can hours be more than 24?
Yes — totals can be hundreds of hours, useful for cumulative project time.
Why is one of my lines marked invalid?
Lines must contain only digits and colons in the right pattern. Stray text, extra colons or empty fields are flagged so the rest of the total stays correct.
