How to convert 24 hours format to 12 hours in Javascript.

Convert the 24 hours format time to 12 hours formatted time.

You can get the time by ,

var dt = new Date();

var hours = dt.getHours(); // gives the value in 24 hours format

var minutes = dt.getMinutes() ; 

var finalTime = "Time  - " + hours + ":" + minutes; 

finalTime // final time Time - 22:10

Now in-order to convert it to 12 hours format you can take % 12 on the current time.

If the time is 13 then 13%12 → 1

time = 23 then 23%12 →11

time = 24, then 24%12 → 0 , if the time is 0, then change the time as 12.

var dt = new Date();

var hours = dt.getHours() ; // gives the value in 24 hours format

var AmOrPm = hours >= 12 ? 'pm' : 'am';

hours = (hours % 12) || 12;

var minutes = dt.getMinutes() ;

var finalTime = "Time  - " + hours + ":" + minutes + " " + AmOrPm; 

finalTime // final time Time - 22:10
