My time won’t adjust to correct time zone

Hello Ortiz13,

By the look of your iPhone, have you made any modifications to the software in order to change the appearance of Messages? Doing that can cause unexpected behaviors with your iPhone and compromise its security, so we want to see if that's at play.

You can also check the standard settings for the clock through the steps at If you can't change the time or time zone on your Apple device - Apple Support.

1. Make sure that you have the latest version of iOS or iPadOS.
2. Turn on Set Automatically in Settings > General > Date & Time. This automatically sets your date and time based on your time zone. Is this setting dimmed?
3. If a message appears saying that updated time zone information is available, restart your device and any paired Apple Watch.
4. Allow your device to use its current location to determine the correct time zone. To do this, go to Settings > Privacy & Security > Location Services > System Services and turn on Setting Time Zone.
5. Check that your device shows the correct time zone in Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities!
