Yeah it should adjust soon after you take it out of airplane mode. Mine takes about a minute to figure out where it is.

Yes they do because they have to reconnect to the local phone network. Plus all phones have gps which tells them where they are in the world.

@justanothername I'm the guy that goes to the store that doesn't buy anything else not on the list! 😆

Stores hate me for it!

I go somewhere, I know where I going before I even leave the house!

That's how I traveled to Germany at 14 all by myself! I knew where exactly I was going and who to contact. It was all planned out a day before I left.

@DeWayfarer That’s not surprising. You are also not part of any phone companies demographic.

@justanothername correct! Both GPS and location is off and "fused location" disabled!

This site thinks I all over southern California! 100 miles in all directions! 🤣

The login manager here says that!

Not all phones. But yeah most modern smartphones adjust automatically, especially if you’re connected to the internet

Usually yes so long as you are set to automatic. On an iPhone you can override that and choose any time zone.

Yes, modern smartphones will realize where they are and adjust the time accordingly.

Smartphones do adjust as the sync process is automatic

@Doomflower why is it funny? Because I'm an inexperienced traveler? 🤔
Emarky · 31-35, M
Go to time settings and adjust it yourself
Jenny1234 · 51-55, F

Usually they do but sometimes they don't. It depends on the carrier/network and where you are.
Are you going on a vacay?
DDonde · 31-35, M
I think normally yeah as long as you have connection? Dunno if it needs data or location to be on though.
