  1. How to align daily time limit resetting with local time zone


    It seems that the daily time limits i have set for my kids do not reset each at at 11:59pm in my local time as one would expect, but rather the time limit functionality runs resets maybe on GMT? Can anyone clarify? I've gotten conflicting information
    from XBOX tech support on this. But for sure, when I give my kids 90 mins of playing time per day, it is not resetting at midnight as I'd expect.

    :)

    Is there any way to set up daily time limits on the x box one? If so, how do I do it?

    Make sure each of the accounts are all in the same time zone, not just yours.

    Sign into each account and check the region they are set to, if incorrect you can use this link to correct it.

    Also check the region of your Xbox is the same as your Account.

    This is the region of the account, not the Xbox. I assume they are all using the same Xbox.

    Daily Challenges

    I'd prefer that the games use my local time zone, but that isn't the problem. The Daily Challenges are often several days off, and it took several days for them to change over to the new month in early November. Whatever time they're using, it should take
    effect across the board, not be January in one part of the game and December in another.

    time zone

    You should be fine with this.People do it all the time.It's when you use external devices to earn achievements that you get a gamerscore reset.

    Time zone

    Why do you want to change the time on your console?

    Only reason I can think is that you want an achievement that is time based, possibly one for playing a game for six months or something.
