Which firmware version are you running? If it’s one of the recent RC’s, make sure you’re running the latest (Athom have released new RC’s in rapid succession the last couple of days). If you are and the problem persists, please contact Athom: [support@athom.com](mailto:support@athom.com)

I just rebooted a second time and now it is working…  
Time is the same in Homey so I can not see what went wrong… So hopefully my car is warm tomorrow ,😀  
Thanks for your time…

yep, I have the same issue.

In the very first firmware of Homey, you could set the time in location settings, but setting is gone

I went from V5 rc60 to the V5 stable version and I have this problem since this stable version. I’ll give it another reboot and see.

Check if the TimeZone is right, and check your Location.

Hi there,  
yes, checked.

If this is all OK, probably the best thing to do is contact Athom.

They look okay to me: date is correct, `dateHuman` uses the correct timezone, and `dateDst` is off, which it should be.

Athom did fix issues regarding some time-based flow cards in the run-up to the stable release, so they may have introduced a bug there.

@Wim_van_Bezouw you can contact them through [support@athom.com](mailto:support@athom.com)

(Ah, Robert, you were a bit quicker to answer 😉 )  
The screenshot shows that the date (in UTC) and the datehuman (in local time zone) differ one hour, which is correct for your timezone. If the image has been shot a couple of minutes ago, then I would say your date human is correct. So where do you see that the time is off for one hour?

He’s saying that time-based flows trigger an hour too late.

Like Robert says, the time triggered flows kick in an hout late.
