What time (server) is it?
What time server does iOS use?
My Mac running OS X EC is more than 5 minutes ahead of my iPhone 6 and iPad (both currently running iOS 8.4).
I checked the following time servers with sntp in terminal:
sntp time.apple.com
sntp nist.netservicesgroup.com (US Standards, supposed to be synched with atomic clock)
sntp 0.us.pool.ntp.org
They are all within a few seconds of each other, and the same time as the Mac clock (set to automatic with time.apple.com)
But here's the odd thing. the site "time.is" is also supposed to be sychronized to the atomic clock. But that is showing the time that my iOS devices are showing, i.e., 5 minutes slower than the above servers. What's more, time.gov is showing the same time as time.is.
So what gives? Why the huge discrepancy? And again, what time server does iOS use??
Mac Pro, OS X El Capitan (10.11), iPhone 6, iPad 2
