How to Set Time on Google Pixel 3a XL

Any smartphone is a multifunctional device, which is also used to display time. The owner of the device can spot the watch on the desktop, lock screen and status bar. However, the time may not be set correctly, and then you will have to manually configure it on Google Pixel 3a XL.

How to set up date and time on Android

You can set time on Google Pixel 3a XL using the settings menu. You can easily find this menu item by following the instructions:

Open your phone settings.
Go to Additional settings and then to Date and Time.
Click the Set Time tab and set the correct values. You can also change the date values in the Set Date tab.

In addition, depending on the Android version, the Clock application may be preinstalled on Google Pixel 3a XL. Like the device settings, it is suitable for changing date and time settings:

Launch the Clock application.
Click the three-point button.
Click Edit system time.
Set new time parameters.

The values you specify are saved automatically. The set time will be displayed in the status bar and in all places where the clock is set.

Advanced Date and Time Settings

In addition to date and time values, you can change other settings that indirectly affect these parameters. In particular, this applies to the format of the date and hours, as well as the choice of the time zone. However, the main parameter to look out for will be automatic date and time. By activating this option, you will avoid problems with incorrect date and time values.

At the same time, the opposite cases are known when, after automatic time setting, the clock begins to lag by several hours. This is caused by an incorrect time zone definition or an operating system failure. This problem is solved by manually setting the time according to the instructions from the previous paragraph.

Installing the clock widget on the home screen

Speaking of date and time, it is worth mentioning the ability to install the clock widget on the main screen so that you can always see the current time. You can install the time widget on the phone desktop using the following instructions

Hold your finger on the free area of the main screen.
Click the Widgets tab.
Place the widget.

The clock will be displayed not only on the status bar, but also on the main screen. If you need to change the time settings in the future, you can go to them by tapping on the widget.
