    Hi Simon,

    Thanks for reaching out to Jotform Support. When I cloned and tested your form, the same thing happened to me. After investigating it a bit, I found a solution. We need to just switch the time zone to another and change it back to Sydney. Let me show you how:

    • In Form Builder, click on your appointment field, and on its Gear icon.
    • Under the Advanced tab on the right menu, switch the default time zone to another time zone, and then change it back to Sydney.

    • Refresh the page and that's it. As you see on my screencast above, the time was adjusted accordingly.

    Give it a try and let us know if you need any help.
