  Hello,

  I’m located in Australia, and using the DayOne app on Windows. When i choose a day/time, it shows inconsistently – eg. if I choose 6/1/2025 (6th Jan) – at 9am, it will save as 5/1/2025 (5th Jan) – ie. 10 hrs earlier.

  My timezone is “Australia East” on Windows 11.

  Hi @grumpywookie,

  Day One for Windows should reflect the timezone and clock that your device is set to. Go to Settings > Time & language > Date & time, toggle off “Set time automatically,” and click “Change” to manually adjust, or keep automatic settings on for updates; you can also right-click the clock on the taskbar and select “Adjust date/time” to access these options directly.

  For time zone, toggle “Set time zone automatically” on or off, or select it from the dropdown menu in the same settings area, ensuring location services are enabled for automatic setting.
