Huawei: Turn Dual Clocks On or Off on the Lock Screen

Travel to a different time zone with your Huawei phone and the lock screen suddenly shows two clocks side by side. That second clock reflects your home city time and keeps appearing until you switch the dual clocks feature off or update the home time zone yourself.

Enable or Disable Dual Clocks auf Huawei

Dual clocks appear on the Huawei lock screen only when the current time zone differs from the one saved for your home city. EMUI compares both values automatically and displays a second clock next to the main one whenever a gap is detected.

This is not a bug. It is a built-in travel feature meant to remind you of the time back home while you are abroad. If you do not travel across time zones, the second clock has no reason to appear, but you can still switch the whole function off permanently.

To change this setting, open Open the settingsTap on System & updatesTap on Date & timeActivate or deactivate Dual clocks. In the same menu you can also set or update which city counts as your home time zone.

If the second clock still shows up after disabling the toggle, check whether your device is set to automatic time zone detection. In that case Android may briefly reapply the network time zone before your manual setting sticks, especially right after landing or reconnecting to mobile data.

Frequently asked questions

This happens when the time zone currently detected does not match the home city time zone stored in Date & time. Once both values match again, the second clock disappears automatically.
