Time zone settings on italki

How do you know your italki time zone setting is correct? Simply make sure the time on your Dashboard next to your nickname matches the time on your device!

If your italki time zone setting is different from your device, you will see a small exclamation icon with a notification. Click on the icon to select the correct timezone.

Select your time zone

On the italki Settings page, you can select a Time Zone from the drop-down menu. If your location is not listed, check your local timezone first and make sure you are selecting the correct one. 

Make sure you check your Dashboard again and see if your time on italki matches the time on your local device! 

Daylight Saving Time

You don’t need to manually change your time zone setting for DST (Daylight Saving Time). It is automatically observed and updated on italki. 

My teacher's time zone

You don’t need to worry about your teacher’s timezone. Once the time zone is correctly selected, italki automatically calculates time zone differences between you and your teacher. The date and time you see on the italki booking page and lesson pages are in your timezone.
