On your iPhone or iPad

  1. Go to Settings > General > Date & Time.
  2. Turn off Set Automatically. Is this setting dimmed?
  3. Change the time zone or the date and time: Tap Time Zone and enter a city with the time zone that you need. Or tap the date to change the date and time.


If you can't change the time or time zone on your Apple device
