To provide the most accurate local context for each event, VeriScan records data based on the **local system time** of the hardware at the moment of the scan. ### **How it Works** The application captures the date and time stamp by communicating directly with your device's operating system: - **iOS & Android:** The app queries the mobile device for the current time and time zone configured in your system settings. - **Windows:** The software pulls the time stamp directly from the local Windows system clock. ### **Example Scenario** If your organization operates in both **New York (EST)** and **California (PST)**: - A scan performed on an iPad in California at 9:00 AM will be logged as **9:00 AM**. - A scan performed on a Windows tablet in New York at 9:00 AM will be logged as **9:00 AM**. **Note:** To ensure reporting consistency, we recommend enabling **"Set Automatically"** in the Date & Time settings of all devices running VeriScan.   -
