Hi GT

Hi, hhamedk!
Currently we have one option of DST setting (Europe: last Sunday in March - last Sunday in October).
Please specify what option of DST you are interested in?
hhamedk, as far as I understand, Iranian DST works the following way.
Once in four years your local time is shifted one hour forward on March 21st and it is turned backward 1 hour on September 21st.
Next three years the local time is shifted on March 22nd and it is turned backward 1 hour on September 22nd.
To analyse your request it is essential to understand the way it works, so please correct me if I'm wrong. For example:
21 Mar 2012 - DST started, 21 Sep 2012 - DST ended
22 Mar 2013 - DST started, 22 Sep 2013 - DST ended
22 Mar 2014 - DST started, 22 Sep 2014 - DST ended
22 Mar 2015 - DST started, 22 Sep 2015 - DST ended
21 Mar 2016 - DST started, 21 Sep 2016 - DST ended
22 Mar 2017 - DST started, 22 Sep 2017 - DST ended
22 Mar 2018 - DST started, 22 Sep 2018 - DST ended
22 Mar 2019 - DST started, 22 Sep 2019 - DST ended
21 Mar 2020 - DST started, 21 Sep 2020 - DST ended
So it doesn't depend on the day of week or anything else, am I right? DST in Iran has a fixed date, yet it changes once every four years, is that correct?
hhamedk, thanks for the confirmation.
Anyhow, for now you can use the app and switch the timezone manually on March 21st, as the DST setting is a minor feature that only makes work with NimBus a bit easier.
We will consider this option, thank you for the request.
