Aug 23, 2016Time Stamp
I have a customer that is having the issue listed below, does anyone know this answer?
I like the Microsoft Forms app, but it is time stamping the responses incorrectly. Within my account, I have the time zone correctly. Where does the Forms app pull the time from? Is there a setting we are missing that will correct this?

Hi Chuck,
Currently, the time stamp is in UTC. We have plan to show the time stamp based on time zone.

It is 2 years later and Forms is still using UTC for the submission time stamp. When will this be corrected to reflect user's timezone?

Is there a date we can expect this? It would simplify the forms I create greatly. Currently we have to include an additional field for the correct time/date into our forms. This seems like a large oversight on Microsoft's part.
