Read on to see more detailed instructions for each step.
- Open the Settings App from the home screen.
- Tap General. 3. Tap Date & Time.
- Toggle Set Automatically to off (i.e. not green) if it isn’t already, otherwise you will not be able to change the time zone. 5. Tap Time Zone. 6. In the search bar that appears type a city or locale near you (or where you are going) that matches the time zone you need, then tap it to select.
- If you would rather set the time manually instead of to a specific time zone, simply tap the date or time below the Time Zone option.
- From the calendar view tap the time in the bottom right corner.
- Simply scroll and tap the time you want to set. And stop the clock. That’s all you need to do, return to the home screen and your phone should now be on a new time zone. If you are on vacation, don’t forget to change it again when you get back!
