Should be fixed with this firmware version

I’m having this issue. In the setting it seems ok

but this is UTC instead of UTC +2

And, I’m on v8.0.6

A workaround can be:  
Go to …More\>Settings\>Location, turn off “Let Homey find my location”, and drag your location to another timezone.  
Then, leave the settings page, and then go to [https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/system](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/system)  
and check if the time & timezone have changed.  
If so, drag your location back to your home location.

I can change the timezone that way. But the problem with the reported time for certain devices persists, it stays w/ UTC.

Ah, I see. Then only another [restart](https://tools.developer.homey.app/tools/system) should do the trick.

You reported the issue to Athom as well?

So, now I figured out that the timestamp for a device is correct on iOS, and on a local Vivaldi while still being 2 hours behind on Firefox. Seems to be a local browser issue.

Odd, but try CTRL+SHIFT+R with Firefox, to clear the browser cache and reload the page. Maybe the timestamp gets updated.
