Ionic isn't updating the time automatically

[gordo50]

When traveling overseas, I have to change the time on my iphone manually.  My ionic will not display the time from the iphone.  Any solutions?

A warm welcome to the Community @gordo50! In order for your Ionic to have the correct timezone when you're travelling, you need to change your settings on your app. Please follow these steps: 

1. From the Fitbit app dashboard, tap the Account icon 
2. Tap Advanced Settings.
3. Under Time Zone, turn off the Set Automatically option.
4. Tap Time Zone and select the correct time zone.

Hope this helps! Keep me posted.

This has not happened for me.  It seemed to work when I left my timezone 3 weeks ago to go to South Africa 6h ahead of my home time.  I have been back home for 6h now and it is still on SA time which means my steps are into tomorrow.  The unit has synced a few times and the timezone is set to auto.  Does the unit have jetlag like me or how can I get it right.

Same problem here. Going back to Apple since you can set the time manually
when you are not able to get a signal on the phone.

I'm on a cruise ship en route to Hawaii. Our time zone is not available as an option. We will be in Hawaii time zone tomorrow, but I want watch to be accurate TODAY. Surely there's some way I can force the correct time to my watch?

No can do! Went back to my Applewatch
