I know that events display for users in their native time zone, and I think that’s a slick feature.

However, it would still be helpful for users to have an at-a-glance way of seeing the exact time-zone.

For example, it would say something like:

12-2pm EST

I think users typically expect to see what time zone an event is in, and when it isn’t present that can be confusing.

Hello folks,

Thanks a lot for your comments and suggestions!

We agree that it would be really more clear to have the info about the time-zone displayed. We’ll try our best to consider your ideas for this feature in one of the future updates.

Thank you for helping us 🙂

> Im with the others - seems incomplete not to be able to either select a time zone or see some notation that indicates where it defaults too. I think it would be useful
