Google says it has resolved a daylight saving time glitch that disrupted smart home hardware in parts of Canada. The issue primarily affected Nest Hub displays, Nest Thermostats, and Lenovo Smart Clock devices, leaving them showing the incorrect time after the seasonal shift. [1][2]
The problem stemmed from recent daylight saving changes across Canadian provinces, where some regions stopped observing the practice while others retained it. Because adjusting time zones is difficult on Nest hardware, the mismatch caused late alarms, broken automations, and altered schedules. [2]
The official Google Nest Community account confirmed the remedy on Reddit following several days of disruptions. While Google stated that the timer and alarm issues are fixed, the company is asking users who still encounter discrepancies to report them. [1]
Google says it will roll out a fix for Nest devices that were impacted by problems with Daylight Savings adjustments due to changes in Canada.
