The winter is finally over because on Sunday, March 30 at 2 o’clock in the morning the summer time 2025 starts! You have to pay attention to this on your iPhone.
Summer time 2025
You may wonder Why We set the clock twice a year, but it is no different for the time being. The winter time started the last time on Sunday, October 27, 2024 at 3.00 am. Then the clock was put back an hour and it was suddenly again 2.00.
That relatively dark period is now coming to an end. On Sunday 30 March we will move the clock forward again at 2 a.m. to 3 p.m. Although that goes automatically on your iPhone, it can sometimes cause problems. You have to pay attention to this.
Automatic setting
Automatic switch to summer time 2025 of course only works if the correct option is enabled on your iPhone. Not wrong to check that. But before you start something, it is a good idea to ensure that you have installed the last iOS version. Then check the following option:
- Open the app settings;
- Tap ‘general’ and then on ‘date and time’;
- Activate the ‘Set up automatically’ option.
If the time zone is wrong here, you can also adjust it immediately. You do it like this:
- Open the app settings;
- Tap ‘privacy and security’ and then for ‘location facilities’;
- Scroll down and tap ‘System’;
- Activate ‘Set time zone’.
Check your alarm clock
It has happened in the past that summer time was automatically set up, but that the alarm clock did not work well. In the new era, it still kept rising in the old days. So a good idea to check this now that summer time 2025 starts. To do this, open the Klok app and tap ‘Wasks’ at the bottom. Check the time and whether it is still at the desired time.
In the worst case
You will not need it, but in the worst case you can also set the summer time 2025 manually. That is really only necessary if you still have an outdated iOS version. Or if your country, region or government suddenly changes the time zone or the use of winter and summer time. In any case, it works like this:
- Open the app settings;
- Tap ‘general’ and then on ‘date and time’;
- Switch off ‘Set up automatically’;
- Adjust the time zone and/or the date.
Summer time lasts so long 2025
Summer time 2025 lasts until Saturday 25 October. On Sunday, October 26, the clock will be returned to 2 a.m. at 3 p.m. and the Winter Time 2025 will start.
