Change timezone on BrowserStack real devices

The Settings app on an Android or iOS device enables you to set the timezone on the device. You can set the timezone automatically by giving the Settings app the permission to use the current device location, or manually by entering the name of the country or city with your required timezone.

App Live enables you to set the timezone manually on BrowserStack real devices, to test your apps for timezone-based scenarios.

This guide provides information about changing timezone manually on BrowserStack real iOS devices. On BrowserStack real Android devices, you can change timezone by launching your App Live test session and following the procedure mentioned in Google documentation.
