# Setting Timezones on Apple Devices

## What

In FileWave 14.1+ you are able to make command policy profiles for iOS (14+ supervised) and tvOS (14+ supervised)

## When/Why

Setting the timezone can help a user with their localization settings.

## How

<table id="bkmrk-native-admin-web-adm"><tbody><tr style="background-color: rgb(251, 238, 184);"><td>Native Admin</td><td>Web Admin</td></tr><tr><td>1. Filesets view  
2. New Mobile ( or Desktop) Fileset  
3. Profile  
4. Command Policy  
5. Configure...  
6. Find "Time Zone"  
  
You can choose between   
  
\* **Don't Change timezone** - (Default) Does nothing  
\* **Use FWAdmin time zone (X)** - Where X should be the timezone of the computer admin is running  
\* This option is something like a quick-set value that makes it so you don't have to wade through the long list of time zones  
\* **Select from the list of all time zones** - A second drop down list will show of available timezones

Please remember, Command Policy profiles are not persistent. Meaning a user could change it at anytime after this command has been received, but the command policy does re-apply periodically. So, it is not a "restriction" per se.
