Time zone in mobile app is incorrect

overlord · October 13, 2021, 6:55am

Hi guys,

I reinstalled my HASS 2days ago, the time displayed on mobile app(UTC time) was incorrect since then.

The time display on computers(accessed from browser) is correct(+08:00), while the display on mobile app(iOS & android) is incorrect(+00:00).

HASS version: 2021.10.2
host time zone: CST

I am having the exact same problem since updating HA. On iOS iphone, HA_app, Safari, and Chrome all show time and charts in UTC (whereas a few days ago, this was not the case), but when connecting to HA via a PC Chrome browser all time is in the correct timezone (UTC-6 for me). I too updated HA and noticed the problem, HA_OS, and HA_app are all now up-to-date (core-2021.10.4, Home Assistant OS 6.5, App: 2021.8 (2021.216)).

Looks like the breaking change for me was going from core_2021.9.7 to 10.1.

Yes, exactly the same.

BTW, the timezone on iPad Pro APP is correct, is this a bug or something wrong with my config on the mobile APP? It’s really annoying.

I am in the same situation, from web browsers it shows correctly,but from the app I have two hours less.I have installed the app on two phones and a tablet and the same thing happens.I have put the time sensor and it correctly shows the time in the state,however in the registry it shows everything as if it were two hours before.Scheduler card dont work correctly among other

has anyone here opened a frontend issue yet? if not I suggest you check for open issues and if one doesnt exist file one

It seems that it has something to do with incompatibility for older versions of software. My iPhone with iOS 15 displays the page correctly meanwhile my iPad with iOS 14 does not. People have mentioned updating their browser or upgrading their OS solved the issue.

I found this one: https://github.com/home-assistant/core/issues/57417 , and mentioned this thread.

Because this issue would appear if only the HASS core was updated, and all the clients, browsers(on mobile device), iOS APP, Android APP would be affected.

I downgraded my HA with:
ha core update --version=2021.9.7

and the timezone issues went away (I noticed the problem on 2021.10.1 and 2021.10.4).

Here I have the correct time on iPhone [ iOS 14.8 ] and a wrong one on iPad [ iOS 12.5.5. ].
Same core, 2021.10.5, and same Companion App, 2021.10 (2021.247).

Same issue here. My fire HD 10 (both companion app and fully kiosk) are on UTC. It’s an issue for the weather display mainly. Other devices seem unaffected.

mitchellross · October 22, 2021, 4:09am

Confirmed that downgrading to 2021.9.7 fixes the issue. So now I’m in ugly position of either being stuck with an out-of-date HA Core, or home panel on the wall with custom mount that I can’t upgrade (Fire HD 10, stuck with webview that amazon gives me) displaying the weather from half a day ago. Boo.

james_s · November 2, 2021, 5:31am

Anybody find a fix or workaround for this yet? There have been a lot of updates recently but I just tried updating to the latest build and confirmed that it’s still broken so I rolled back to 2021.9.7 and that fixes it. I’m stuck on 2021.9.7 until this gets fixed.

bug

### Checklist - [X] I have updated to the latest available Home Assistant versi…on. - [X] I have cleared the cache of my browser. - [X] I have tried a different browser to see if it is related to my browser. ### Describe the issue you are experiencing Since updating to 2021.10.x (now on 2021.10.7) - various browsers attached to my Supervised install have been using UTC rather than local Sydney/Australia time. This has meant that yesterday's weather has been displayed etc. I have replicated this issue on completely fresh install of Debian & Supervised and looking at the logs or any card dependent on timings (like weather) on Firefox on the host machine. Likewise, pointing my Fire HD10 (2019) at that instance shows this behaviour in both Fully Kiosk and the Companion App. "Updating" to 2021.9.7 fixes this issue. The issues do not appear on Chrome or Safari. As an example of this issue, this is a screenshot of the logs section of Supervisor. You can see that the summary entries are appearing in UTC, while the detailed entries below are in local time. This did not occur prior to 2021.10.x. (https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/39319760/139831303-deb733d9-d648-498a-ad94-f6260ca7b0b7.png) ### Describe the behavior you expected I would expect to see a consistent application of local time at the front end of all devices and all browsers, as was the case on 2021.9.7. ### Steps to reproduce the issue 1. Point an impacted browser (Firefox, Amazon Webview based apps etc) at any HA instance from 2021.10.x onwards 2. Check to see whether the front end displays things like the logs, or weather forecasts in local time. 3. ... ### What version of Home Assistant Core has the issue? 2021.10.1 onwards ### What was the last working version of Home Assistant Core? core-2021.9.7 ### In which browser are you experiencing the issue with? Various - see above ### Which operating system are you using to run this browser? Debian Bullseye / FireOS in my own testing ### State of relevant entities ```txt n/a ``` ### Problem-relevant frontend configuration ```yaml No changes made to config.yaml to replicate this issue. Everything left as vanilla as possible to eliminate any other interactions causing the issue. (Only added HACS to get my local weather sensors into the weather card). ``` ### Javascript errors shown in your browser console/inspector ```txt nil ``` ### Additional information Happy to undertake any further testing or turn on debug logging on any device if it helps. Here is the same screenshot as above, but following a downgrade to 2021.9.7 - you'll see that local time is consistently shown. Obviously it doesn't really matter that these aren't the same - but it is an issue when time critical cards like weather forecasts are displaying UTC rather than the local time. ![Screenshot from 2021-11-02 21-56-57](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/39319760/139834148-18043a79-be01-4652-bb52-c946dad25966.png)

Useful if others could add further detail on this issue in this bug report.

I updated to core version 2021.11.2 and now the time is shown correct again.
