When creating events with reminders at "Event time", the reminder is
stored in UTC, but triggered in local time. I first noticed this when
creating events in BST (UTC+0100).
STR:
- Set device timezone to something other than GMT/UTC.
- Open Calendar
- From the actions mention, select New Event
- Fill in some basics - time /date, event name, location, reminder at "Event
time"..
- Save the event
- Wait until the alotted time, and observe the absence of a reminder.
Setting my timezone to SAST (UTC+0200) and adding an event 5 minutes
into the future, no reminder fired. However, changing the date to 2h5m
into the future, the reminder fired 2h before the event. So it looks like
the reminder is being *stored* in UTC, but *fired* in local time.
