Day of week shown is for secondary timezone? #17

Open Davemc380 opened 6 years ago

Hi there,

The day of the week that is shown on the screen below the time seems to align with the date of the secondary timezone, and not the primary timezone. The date is correct - but the day of week isn't.

While the date shown changes at midnight local, the day of week changes when the secondary timezone reaches midnight - which in my case is 10 hours later as I have it set to UTC, and my home timezone is UTC +10.

See the picture attached. It is taken at 7.59am on Tuesday 17 Oct, and the secondary timezone says 22:00 (rounded I assume), but the date shown is Monday 17 October (which is an invalid date as the 17 Oct is a Tuesday).

Can you take a look and advise if it is a setting I have wrong, or a bug?

Thanks, Dave

Hi there,

That is correct, the day of week is always related to your home time zone. So that was on purpose. Just to make that clear this is not a secondary time zone but your home time zone. I need that when I’m on travel in a different time zone. So the main time always shows the time of the current tine zone and the smaller time always shows your home time zone. The hone time and date will only be shown when your phone changes to another time zone.

Cheers,

Ok thanks for the reply, and I understand the reasons now. But in that case, can I suggest that both the day of the week and the date should both be related to the home time zone? As it is now, they are different, and you can end up with the situation that I show above, where the watch face appears to show Monday 17 OCT, but in actual fact the 17 OCT was a Tuesday. I would also love to see the option to set the day/date to either the home or local timezone if possible - that would be a great addition. Please I hope you don't see these as criticisms - I think yours is the best watch face by far, and I really appreciate you making and updating it. Thanks!
