Important news to all NotifyMe users - please be aware that Daylight Saving Time (also known as Summer Time) ends in a few days in most parts of the world.
Standard Time begins as follows:
- On 25th October in all west & central European countries (clock falls back to Standard Time from 3:00 to 2:00)
- On 25th October in United Kingdom, Ireland and Portugal (clock falls back to Standard Time from 2:00 AM to 1:00 AM)
- On 1st November in USA and Canada (clock falls back to Standard Time from 2:00 AM to 1:00 AM)
- Australia has switched vice-versa from ST to DST on 4th October
If you are located in any of these countries or any other country which is still using Summer Time at the moment, your iPhone will switch to Standard Time automatically (assuming your region is set correctly in your iPhone settings). Please revise your existing reminders immediately the following morning and change their trigger times accordingly.
Which reminders are affected?
Luckily, (or unfortunately, depending on your usage) not all reminders are affected by the time shift. The following reminders will be received 1 hour earlier after the switch:
- All reminders created in NotifyMe Web access during Summer Time with the future date of Standard Time
- Recurring reminders (daily/weekly/every two weeks/monthly). Yearly repeated reminders are not affected.
If you've never used NotifyMe Web access, only mentioned recurring reminders should be delivered 1 hour earlier than before.
How to fix recurring reminders?
After the time transition, please edit your recurring reminders and set their trigger date to any date which is after the transition.
We're sorry for the inconvenience. Please note that we're already working on a seamless future transitions, so you won't have to worry about the time shift again in March 2010. Don't hesitate to contact us if you need further assistance.
