World clock 1 hour to early in Amman

Last week we were in Amman Jordan with à group.
We and all Iphone / IPad users woke up one hour to early due to wrong time in the iOS world clock !!!
What actions are recommendable to protect future users of the iOS alarm clock ??

Hey there Evermoor,
It sounds like your World Time section of the Clock app is reporting the incorrect time. This information is privided to the phone by the cellular carrier when it is set to automatically update. Use the following information to help determine of the time is being set automatically. If not, then turn that on and see if the time corrects itself. If not then use the rest of the information to reach out to your Carrier.

Follow these steps. Test after each step to see if the issue is resolved.
Ensure that the version of iOS on your device is up to date.
If the option to enable date and time automatically is available, turn it on. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time.
Ensure that your time zone is set up correctly. Tap Settings > General > Date & Time > Time Zone.
If the incorrect date, time, or time zone is being set up automatically on the device, please notify your cellular provider. In the meantime, tap General > Date & Time and turn off Set Automatically. Then set the appropriate time and time zone manually.
Note: The option to set automatically might not be available on all carriers in all countries.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

World clocks have wrong hour

The world clocks are showing the wrong hour.
This is my situation:
* I live in Belgium, which is GMT+1
* I have selected GMT+1 at Settings > Date & time > Time Zone
* I have entered the correct hour
* Because of Daylight savings time, the hour changed recently: 2AM became 1AM
* I changed the hour accordingly, and noticed that the "world clocks" (Extras > Clocks) aren't showing the correct hour. Right now it should be 19:17 and it's displaying 20:17 for Brussels, Belgium.
I'm not sure if it was displaying correctly before the Daylight savings time.
Anyone else having this problem?

I have the same issue with my Classic, especially in cities that are not affected by DST.
Unfortunately the ipod does not feature editing the time yourself. Edit for the developers just mean picking up another city, nothing else.

World Clock doesn't reflect new time in Santiago

World clock on my iPad and also iPhone don't reflect to new time in Santiago, who went one hour forward on Saturday night.
Any ideas?

The iPad, iPod, iPhone doesn't recognize the change. Officially (to the world) the "summer time hour" change last days of October in Chile, not early September. You need to change the hour manually and choose Buenos Aires time hour.
Three years ago, the Chilean government forward the summer time hour.
I hope this help.

My iphone 3gs has started showing the wrong time and date. All was fine until this afternoon when it changed. My apps have the right time and date. However the world clock is wrong. I have to turn off the automatic time setting to get the right time.

My iphone is showing the wrong time and date. All was well until sometime this afternoon when it changed... to Nov 5 (2 days prior to today), and about 9 hours and some minutes before the actual time. The world clock for my time zone shows the same wrong date and time. My calender shows the same wrong date and time. The phone can not find my time zone any more. The only fix I found was to turn off the automatic setting for time. What is happening? Ideas?

just sorted mine went to
settings-mail,contacts,calender-timezone support
then turned it off then on tapped time zone and typed london
this did sort mine

Bug in iOS world clock not refreshing?

If I view the world clock in iOS 7 and leave to another app for a few minutes/hours, and then return to the clock app, the world clock remains at the time I last viewed it. It appears to not refresh to the latest time. The only way to update the clock is if I view something else in the clock app such as alarms etc. or tap it from digital to analog and back.
Does this happen to you?
I have 11 time zones setup.

Hi Ckuan, the issue is back. I think it's a bug. Here is another screenshot.
Steps to repeat:
1. view the world clock in digital view (I have tested with 11 clocks)
2. leave the world clock as-is and go to other apps
3. go back to the world clock after several minutes/hours without touching the clocks
If you scroll the clocks, it can refresh to the latest time. Some clocks are already refreshed. Some are at the last time viewed.
This issue can happen with or without automatically setting the time. When travelling, I turn off several features. I noticed this when I nearly missed a meeting and quoted a time incorrectly.

IPhone World Clock doesn't show the correct times

How do I get the iPhone to show the correct World Clock times. I have the time zone set to San Diego and the clock time is correct. When I set San Diego as one of the World Clock times it shows a time 7 hours behind. New York is 4 hours behind instead of 3 hours ahead, the same 7 hour bust.

emr1100 ,
Have you tried resetting the phone.? Hold down the sleep/wake button and the home button until it restarts. If that doesn't work, try a restore....please back up your data with a sync before you restore the phone. If that doesn't work take it back to the Apple stor and let them take a look at it. They will fix it or give you another phone. Another idea...call AT&T to see if sometining can be "reset" on their end. You never know ...that might work also.

World Clock widget in Dashboard - missing hands

Prior to Daylight Saving Time (South Australia) all clock hands [hour, minute etc.] on the world clock widget in the Dashboard were visible.
However, the day after the introduction of Daylight Saving Time the clock hands had gone. I've heard of people who believe that curtains fade due to DST, but clock hands? :-)))
I downloaded another world clock ('Stationsklok') but that was also minus the clock hands. The same was done with a digital clock widget ('Flip Clock') and the numerals were missing.
I removed the original world clock and replaced it with another - no luck. Trashing the world clock plist files has not brought any luck either.
Can anyone suggest anything else that I can try?

You can add world clock widget to Notification center.

Nokia 6280 World clock

I live in Baku (Azerbaijan). Baku's time zone is GMT+4. Unfortunately there is no city (out of 41 preset)with the same time zone in the list of "Phone time zone" cities. therefore I can not adjust it to work properly and have to use Moscow time, which is 1 hour behind. I also cannot live this setting empty, since choice has to ba made
Is there any means to add a city with the necessary time zone to the list, as it was in case with World Clock on Nokia6230, when you could add a city by searching on the map

Sorry, you cannot do that.

Issues with World Clock widget in Notification Center

The widget is inconsistent when showing the correct time for foreign locations. Right now it's showing the time in Perth as 5pm when it's actually 5am. The times in London and Paris are correct. Is anyone else having this issue?

I don't even see AM or PM in the World Clock -- only an analog 12-hour dial. It's not adequate. A world clock ought to display either AM/PM or 24-hour time (should be a configurable preference) and also the date.

Getting GMT time to make a world clock

I'm currently living in Greenland with most of my family in Denmark. There's a time difference of 4 hours, and I want to make a world clock on my web-page, showing the time in Greenland and the current time on the computer logged on. I use a script from Kurt Grigg from the JavaScript Kit-web page, but I can?t use the time.gethour() command, 'cause with this I only get the local time on the computer, not how it?s placed according to GMT. Do anyone know a work-around to this problem?

World Clock Time Zone Errors

Does anyone have the answer to this please. My 9500 communicator world clock facility has an error I can't seem to correct. I have it set to Home city - London and distant city Madrid (I use Madrid for Alicante) as I travel between London and Alicante frequently. There is only ever 1 hour difference in the time at either end BUT the Nokia software dictates a continual persistant TWO hours difference. Help appreciated - thanks. Dave

Had tried this before and noticed for some reason I could have one or the other turned on - never both.
Have today downloaded the latest clock release and now CAN have both turned on.
Thanks for the tip mobile_maniac.

World Clock Oddity

I've got my iPod set to watch DC, San Jose, Tokyo, Beijing, and Hanoi on the Clock feature. All of them are at the right time right now, with the exception of San Jose which is presently reading as 9:34am (10:34 here in West Virginia right now, which is DC time). I've tried changing the city and changing it back, making sure that neither has daylight savings time set, nothing's getting it to go back. Thoughts?

I am having a similar problem with my iphone. i am in New Zeland, i have the date and time set correctly but in the world clock it is about 18 hours out. the wolrd clock for San Franciso agrees to my local time. i have tried different time zones and having the the automatic time setting on and off. i have also rebooted the iphone. any suggestions?

Lock screen and world clock show 24hr time, with date & time set to 12hr..

I gave my old iPhone 3GS to my wife after turning the 24hr time to off in in date & time settings but the lock screen and the world clock still display the 24hr time format (everything else is 12hr). I've tried rebooting, rebooting and leaving off for an extended time, switching 12/24 toggle back and forth in date & time settings, and deleting all locations in the world clock but the 24hr format stubbornly remains. The 24hr time confuses my wife so want times to display in the 12hr format.

I am having a similar problem with my iphone. i am in New Zeland, i have the date and time set correctly but in the world clock it is about 18 hours out. the wolrd clock for San Franciso agrees to my local time. i have tried different time zones and having the the automatic time setting on and off. i have also rebooted the iphone. any suggestions?
