Setting the daylight saving time is a breeze with analog clocks; usually it is just a matter of pressing a button or moving a hand. But how can you set daylight saving time on your iPhone? We’ll show you that in this tip.
Daylight saving time on your iPhone
Daylight saving time starts once a year, which means that unfortunately you can sleep an hour less. In other words; the clock is advanced one hour at two o’clock in the morning. In principle, changing the time on the iPhone, iPad or iPod touch is automatic. It is programmed so that you do not have to touch your Apple device at night.
However, it is good to check this on your Apple device. To do this, go to ‘Settings> General’ and tap ‘Date & Time’. Then check whether the time zone is set to Amsterdam, so that it automatically adjusts to daylight saving time. If this is the case, you do not have to do anything else.
Daylight saving time starts on these days
Daylight saving time is the time that is used during the summer and the clock is set 1 hour ahead. By doing this, the period of daylight and the period that people are awake are most equal. This year’s summer time will continue until Saturday, October 30.
In Europe, DST runs from the last Sunday in March to the last Sunday in October. Then the clock goes back 1 hour and we continue into winter time. Below you will find the exact dates for summer time 2021, summer time 2022 and so on, in a row.
