I have had issues in the past with time zones and alarms when traveling, but I think I have it solved. I have just one more point of confusion.
Current versions of iOS have the option Time Zone Override
for the calendar. Mine is currently set to Off
, which I think is the default. The setting can be found in Settings > Calendar > Time Zone Override
The question is: What does the setting Time Zone Override
actually mean? Does it in any way affect events which have a time zone or are marked as floating.
More specifically, when I am in a different time zone, how does this setting affect the following possibilities:
Time Zone Override: Off
, Event time zone set to homeTime Zone Override: On
, Event time zone set to homeTime Zone Override: Off
, Event time zone set to floatingTime Zone Override: On
, Event time zone set to floating
