A way to force the right timezone is to temporary move your location to another timezone and move it back after a while  
( …More \> Settings \> Location)

Or it is the issue Homey uses UTC everywhere.  
Script (partly in dutch):

> [@Actuele tijd weergeven inclusief secondes](https://community.homey.app/t/actuele-tijd-weergeven-inclusief-secondes/75247/2):
>
> Probeer dit script eens: return getCurrentTime("nl-NL","Europe/Amsterdam"); function getCurrentTime(locale, timezone){ let date = new Date(); return date.toLocaleString(locale,{timeZone: timezone }); //return date.toLocaleTimeString(locale,{timeZone: timezone }); //return date.toLocaleDateString(locale,{timeZone: timezone }); } Ik heb het script nog even aangepast. Hij zal nu “datum+tijd” teruggeven, maar je kan ook alleen de tijd of alleen de datum ter…
