Title: Times in tapatalk always 2 hours behind.
Post by: lightsout714 on Wed, 21 May 2014, 19:09:32

I've tried everything, deleted data for the app. Re-added geekhack. Checked any time settings in tapatalk and updated my tapatalk profile with my location. Post times are always 2 hours earlier than reality. Bugs me when checking if I am looking at current stuff.

Not a huge thing but stumped as to why it can't be fixed. Running on android 4.4.2 btw.

Same in iOS. I think it's a Tapatalk bug. Better for you to report to Tapatalk dev. They have a forum for reporting.

It's something to do with how the time setting works on geekhack.

This site uses an offset to set your time. Mine is -2. So it looks like GH is on central time. With the -2 Tapatalk displays all times two hours behind my time. When I set the offset to 0 Tapatalk shows the proper timestamps but then they are wrong on geekhack.

I assume everyone that is not on central time has this issue? Or am I missing something?
