reading timestamp on usage

tpal — Thu, 06 Jan 2022 08:00:02 GMT

The timestamp on usage - when i've made a call or used the web - is only in 12 hr clock, how do i tell if it's an am or pm?

@tpal yeah, timestamps are not great on the usage summary. you will need to figure it out which way it should be. Kinda sucks, but you get used to it.

NOTE: texts are posted in Eastern Times as well. So if you are not in Eastern time zone...more working out for you.

Unfortunately, you can't tell if it's a.m. or p.m. The entries are sorted chronologically though.

@darlicious made a list of all the timings. ~~iirc, outgoing incoming calls are in ones local time. The rest is ET.~~

Edited. nvm 🙂 see below

@computergeek541

so the call that's last on the list is actually the first call of the day?

or they've been resorted so the first call of the day is listed at the top of that day?

@Anonymous

Just tested...incoming calls that are answered are local time.

Edit:

As per @Anonymous suggestion.....

Incoming, outgoing calls and calls to your voicemail from your device are time stamped in local time.
Incoming calls that are not answered, outgoing calls that go to someone you are calling's voicemail or to your voicemail ( incoming but listed as outgoing) and all texts are in eastern time.
Data is recorded in two 12 hour blocks daily with the last entry being the most recent 12 hour block of time.

This is kind of like the receipt thing too.

On VOIP.ms you can set your time zone and then all records reflect the time correctly.

They also allow you to enter a range of dates for a receipt and will produce a PDF copy for you.

How about it PM??

@tpal

BTW....if you set your phone to a 24 hour clock ( military time) it makes it easier to compare with your daily usage and determine the AM/PM usage.
