# Change your time zone

> Set your time zone so dates and times in the app match where you are.

Your time zone controls how dates and times are shown to you. If task due dates or notification times look off by a few hours, check this setting first.

## Set your time zone

1. **Open Settings**

   In the sidebar, select **Settings**. Find the **Timezone** field in the **Profile Information** card. It is described as "Your preferred timezone for date and time displays".

2. **Choose a time zone**

   Open the **Timezone** list and choose yours, for example **Eastern Time (ET)**, **Central Time (CT)**, **Mountain Time (MT)**, or **Pacific Time (PT)**. Each option shows its offset from UTC. The list also includes Alaska, Hawaii, several European, Asian, and Australian cities, and **UTC (Coordinated Universal Time)**.

3. **Save**

   Select **Save Changes**.

> **What you should see:** the message "Profile updated successfully!". The **Timezone** field shows your new choice.

> **Note:** The list is a short set of common time zones, not every city. Choose the one that matches your local clock. If you have not picked one, the app uses **Eastern Time (ET)**.

## What it changes

Your time zone sets how these appear:

- **Task due dates**, in the task list and on task cards.
- **Deal closing dates** on cards in your deal pipeline.
- **Times in Recent Activity** on your dashboard.
- **The date picker** in forms, so the day you pick is the day you meant.

The **Daily Reminder Time** field sits next to **Timezone**. It is the time you want daily task reminders, "in your local timezone". Check it after you change your time zone.
