Change Firebase timestamp? #15

Hi, The default timezone is GMT. I either must be missing something trivial or does it have to be converted? Google not my friend at the moment. Thx

Hi @mashcode, you right. I'll try to look into this sometimes next week

Hi @MarcoBerlot , I "may" have discovered the issue. Firebase seems to use Analytics to set the time zone. I noticed in Analytics ADMIN > Property Settings the reporting time zone was set to UK which I changed to US New York GMT-4. However old and new submissions in the realtime database timestamp remain set at GMT-0. This could be because, as I've been reading, it can take a while for firebase to update. In the meantime I'm going to try firebase init and check back later.
