Hi! Thanks for getting in touch with us! Also could you please describe your issue in more detail? What do you mean by system time is incorrect? App Center SDK sets date for log here. So if system time will changes that in logs time will be the same.

Utc now is 08/10/2021 10:04:28 -03:00 and i can change to 07/10/2021 10:04:28 -03:00 in device settings SDK will send to backend and register as yesterday event But my application doesn't use system time because is unreliable and i know the right current date and time truetime It would be possible to give a way in SDK to set the timestamp of the event?
