Daylight Saving in Egypt

Amriko
Community Member

Egypt enabled DST and although all my android phones adjusted the time automatically, both my Nest Hub and Lenovo speaker did not change. 

What I don't understand, is when I asked "hey google, what is the time now" they both responded with the correct DST time! but still displaying the wrong time!!

Not sure how or why there's no "manual" date & time change (or timezone) option!

Please help!

Hey folks,

 

I can confirm that a fix has been rolled out for a similar issue that happened in Mexico, but since the Google Home/Nest devices are not officially supported and released in Egypt, you might experience some delays in getting the issue resolved.

 

The best thing to do is to send feedback on your devices, by saying, "Hey Google, send feedback," followed by a brief description about the issue. Visit this link to know more about sending feedback.

 

Cheers,

Muddi

You'll probably need to contact Support on this. There were just a whole bunch of posts in this forum from customers in Mexico because Google Nest's database had not been updated with a change Mexico made to daylight savings time months ago. Customers there were having the same problem you're having. Google Nest recently fixed it for customers in Mexico.

@MplsCustomer any luck with the support? instead of all of us raising tickets with them, would be better to mention their reply to avoid repeating requests.

Thanks

@maraouf 

I haven't had any contact with Support, except that I asked @LovelyM  if Support was investigating this issue since there are now 2 threads on this issue.

Thanks.

The problem still exists. I did what you asked, and sent feedback thru Nest Hub by saying "Hey Google, send feedback" 
Is there anything else we need to do other than wait ? 
Thanks

Hello Amriko,

 

We appreciate it. The best thing to do now is to wait for an update since the device is not officially supported in your country. We know this is not the best answer that you're looking for, but let us know if you still have other questions otherwise, I'll be locking this after 24 hours.

 

Cheers,
