Standard time: this Sunday the clocks go back one hour
Published
This Sunday we return to standard time, and in Italy clocks must be set back by 60 minutes. It is an autumn appointment that every year involves millions of people, because the change affects both wall clocks and technological devices.
Most smartphones, computers and tablets update themselves automatically, thanks to the internet connection and the mobile network. Many smartwatches and some appliances with displays also follow the new time automatically. For this reason, in many cases, nothing needs to be done. Older devices or those without a connection, on the other hand, may require manual adjustment.
For those who use less recent devices, such as ovens, traditional alarm clocks, analogue wristwatches or some home automation systems, it is advisable to check the time after the change. The check is simple and takes just a few minutes. The return to standard time also means an extra hour of daylight in the morning and sunset arriving about an hour earlier in the afternoon.
