Can’t change phone time - set automatic time grayed out Currently traveling in Europe on a cruise with intermittent cell coverage. Having to change my phone and watch time frequently. Seems to be impossible to do manually. The set time toggle is locked in automatic.



Any idea what I am missing here?  Tried disabling location services for time zone.
There are a few reasons as to why this might be disabled.


Do you have an Exchange account connected to the phone? There might be a policy connected to it, disabling the option to change the timezone.
If you look in Settings > Privacy > Location Services > System Services (in the bottom), is the option "Setting Time Zone" disabled?
If you have Screen Time enabled with a pass code, that might also disable the option to change time zone. Try to disable Screen Time, restart, and then try again.


Hope that solves it for you.
