Why Can the Clock on Your Phone Change by Itself?

Sometimes, the clock on your phone changes by itself without you realizing it. This can happen for several reasons:

  • Operator Network: If you use automatic time, the clock will follow the settings from the operator's network. If the signal changes or moves to a different time zone, the clock can adjust itself.

  • Restart or Update System: After the phone is restarted or after a software update, the time settings can return to the initial settings.

  • Power Saving Mode: Some power saving features can affect time synchronization if the phone is in low battery condition.

If you don't want the clock to change itself, you should use manual settings by turning off the "Automatic Date and Time" option.

Easy, right? You can set the clock on the Samsung A56, A36, and A26 5G phones in two ways, either by searching in Settings or through the General Management menu. In addition, you can also change the 12-hour or 24-hour format and adjust the time zone if needed. If the clock on your phone changes by itself, make sure the time setting is not automatic.
