Timezones in Scrin.io

Understand how different timezones work in our software.

Written by Bruno Oliveira

When employees work in different countries, it’s important to set each person’s local timezone. Employees will see their timelines and reports in their time zones, while managers will see the hours adjusted to their respective time zones. This ensures both parties have accurate time data, even if they’re in different regions.

How to set your timezone

Go to My Account - Edit profile.

It’s also possible to change the timezone through the Timeline or the Reports page by clicking the option on the top-right corner.

How to change your timezone on your Timeline

Go to Timeline and click on the gear icon in the right corner.

How to change timezones in Reports

Go to Report and click the down arrow on the right corner.

Using a timezone different from your location

If your device's timezone differs from your actual location, time tracking may become inaccurate. Scrin.io uses timezone data to sync screenshot times and track hours with its servers. Changing your system’s time or using a VPN can cause bugs.
