Hello guys,
We have a chore file that has to be set to run at 6 pm. We have set it up in architect at 6 pm, while in paw it is showing as 7 pm. For someone who is using paw, how would they know in which timezone it is set in?
Thank you.

PAW should be displaying the chore in the user's local timezone, but I noticed the same behavior in our environment where I'm US/CST UTC-6, but when I pull up a chore, it shows the time equivalent of UTC-5 eg, the chore is scheduled to run at UTC 01:00 (19:00 CST) but in PAW it shows as 20:00. I know that my timezone settings on my windows machine are correct and even noticed the off-by-one-hour behavior when I override the geolocation timezone id and choose for example San Francisco. Bug?

Is it a day light saving bug?

@macsir I thought at first it might be the "DSTSensitive" parameter in the GET response for a chore, but true/false didn't matter. That parameter is the "Local Server Time Setting" in the chore edit within architect. It might be in how PAW is using some moment.js functions.
