If your time zone changes, in the wee small hours of March 31, you can find a clock in the pump icon on the main screen of your Loop app - or on the Pump settings screen of your iAPS app. Read more about how your pump time and phone time can be different and how to sync to the current time:

  • Tap on the pump icon to go to your pump screen
  • Scroll down to the Pump Time row
  • If your pump time doesn't match your phone time, you can change it by tapping on the Sync to Current Time button and confirming you want to sync the time
