24h clock

crazygirlie89

I have always put the clock in Skybox on the normal 24h version, but now I noticed that the clock is stuck on am/pm.
I can't find the clock setting where I remembered it to be or anywhere else in the app.
I just checked, and it's still available in the Gear VR app, but it's nowhere to be found in the Quest app.
Can you please bring it back?

Hi there,
In the new version, we updated the Oculus SDK to the latest and synced the time in the app with the device.
Since there is no 24-hour option available in the Oculus device, we removed the option of 24-hour option.

Thank you for your understanding.

I can assure you, my Quest is up to date and showing the 24h clock on the dock.

How do you set it to the 24h clock please?

I don't know, it has never ever been a 12h clock for me. Maybe it's connected to the system language? Mine might be set to Dutch instead of English.
Maybe if you synced the time in Skybox to the system time it's also possible to sync the clock setting?
There might not be a toggle for it in the settings menu, but clearly the setting is available somewhere in the OS.

Based on what Metski said, we will test and see how we could improve it. I'm sure we could do something about it in later release.
Thank you for your patience and support.

It seems it is connected to the language setting.
Below is a screenshot of the date, time and number formats when Dutch is selected.

When I switch to English (UK) you see the formatting has changed.

Is it possible to format the time according to the language settings?

That's an interesting discovery.
We will test and see how we could support it.

I just noticed the 24h clock! Good job!
I have already been in the beta testing group for Gear VR and Quest for years! :-)
