Crontab generator

Set the five cron fields or pick a preset, read in plain English exactly when it runs, then copy the crontab line. Nothing is uploaded.

How it works

STEP 1

Set the fields or pick a preset

Fill in minute, hour, day, month and weekday — or tap a preset like “Daily at midnight” to fill them for you.

STEP 2

Read it in plain English

See exactly when the schedule fires, written out as a sentence so you can sanity-check it.

STEP 3

Copy the crontab line

Copy the 5-field expression into your crontab, CI config or scheduler — nothing leaves your device.
