time setting after travel

Two months ago I travelled to Europe from the UK. Since then often I see the time on my bangejs2 is shown in CEST.

Now I tried many things. Set the time to UK time via the watch but that doesn't help. I tried checking the setting via Gadgdtbrigdge Bangle JS but even with things like setting the location or even explicitly via the GPS info app.

Sometimes the time is correct and I suspect it is due to the Android app, but other times it drifts an hour to Europe time.

Before I took the watch to Europe it was consistent.

Does anyone understand what I might do to make the time consistent to my time zone?

In the Apps view or at https://banglejs.com/apps/ you can set "Always update time when we connect" in the tab "more". Maybe that helps. Also make sure the time zone of your phone is right. Also maybe post a list of apps installed on the watch.

Someone else has had some strange issues that sound a bit similar too: https://github.com/espruino/BangleApps/issues/2575

Is it possible that somehow the Android phone itself has got set up such that it thinks its 'home' timezone is in CEST now?

Formatting Help

Don't worry about formatting, just type in the text and we'll take care of making sense of it. We will auto-convert links, and if you put asterisks around words we will make them bold.

Tips:

Create headers by underlining text with ==== or ----

To *italicise* text put one asterisk each side of the word

To **bold** text put two asterisks each side of the word

Embed images by entering:

That's the hard one: exclamation, square brackets and then the URL to the image in brackets.

* Create lists by starting lines with asterisks

1. Create numbered lists by starting lines with a number and a dot

Just like Github, a blank line must precede a code block.
