Google tells Android users to update as parts of Canada adopt permanent daylight saving time
Google has advised Android users affected by new time-zone rules in parts of Canada to update their phones and restart them. British Columbia and Manitoba have switched permanently to daylight saving time, so some devices may show the wrong time when clocks would otherwise go back on 1 November.
If updating does not fix the issue, Google recommends turning on both automatic time-zone detection and location-based time-zone settings. As a last resort, users can turn off automatic detection and manually choose the correct time zone. Time rules vary across Canada, which can make it harder for devices to keep up with regional changes.
In short
- Google says affected Android users should install updates and restart.
- Location-based time-zone settings may correct the time.
- Users can manually select a time zone if needed.
