Live time error

Post by Alex »

Im in Caracas, Venezuela, currently it is 17:37 yet yowindow has the live time at 7:37am funny thing is that it currently shows the image as day but if I scroll to the you windows time of 11:30am it shows night time as if it were pm. I've reinstalled with the same problem. It's a pity since I really like this app, but not very useful or trustworthy with the live time error.
Incase you need to know I'm using an iPad 3rd generation with ios7

Hi Alex,

Welcome to YoWindow.

I split your post from the other Live time error (which was YoWindow for Chrome) and moved your post to iPhone and iPad.
I checked out Caracas, Venezuela on my YoWindow Desktop and I had your correct time.
I then checked out Caracas, Venezuela on my Android and I was a 1/2 hour off in time as you are in a 1/2 hour time zone.

Would you be able to download our Desktop and let us know if the time is correct on it using your time zone?
Thank you in advance.

Marty

I downloaded and installed the desktop program as asked. It at first launch gave the correct time, 6:30 am but after 1 minute I changed the screen to the Asian layout, and immediately it changed to 2:30 am. Currently it is 8:27pm on my computer and in reality, yet yowindow says it's 2:03pm yet the screen is night time.

Hi Alex,

What is your Time Zone set up as on both your PC and your iPad?

It is now 8:46pm, just changed the screen on PC to sky and live time jumped to 6:46am, the time zone on PC is set to sync via internet, and location is set to republic of Venezuela, the iPad is set to set automatically for Caracas, Venezuela.

Hi Alex,

What happens to your PC if you set your Time Zone to
UTC/GMT -4:30 hours (Half-hour time zone) or UTC/GMT -4:30 hours Caracas?

I am in EDT in the USA and have no problems with Caracas on my PC.
But on the Android, I am a 1/2 hour ahead of your actual time.
