[Sankar25052003]

Information about bug

We are facing a timezone mismatch issue in the Frappe HR mobile app.

Environment:
App: Frappe HR Mobile App
Backend: Frappe HRMS

System Timezone: Asia/Kolkata

User Timezone: Asia/Dubai

Device Timezone: Asia/Dubai

Scenario:
Some employees are working in Dubai while the system timezone is set to India (Asia/Kolkata). In the User settings, the timezone is configured as Asia/Dubai.

Observed Behavior:

1. When the employee logs in through the web browser, the Employee Checkin time is displayed correctly in Dubai timezone.

2. When the same employee performs Check-In / Check-Out using the Frappe HR mobile app, the recorded time appears to be affected by the system timezone instead of the user timezone.

When I check in with the time set to Dubai, it immediately changes to India time.

Expected Behavior:
Check-in time should follow the User Timezone (Asia/Dubai).

Actual Behavior:
Check-in time appears to follow the system timezone when created from the mobile application.

Additional Notes:

• Web check-in works correctly with user timezone.
• The issue only occurs when using the mobile application.
• This affects companies operating in multiple timezones (India and UAE).
