Short.io uses a local time zone set on your PC. However, here are some essential features that you might miss out.

1. Short.io statistics allow you to update the time zone individually for each link, which is perfect if your target audience is in different areas of the world.

The time zone support allows creating and tracking short links in different spots of the world. This helps when traveling as you can change a timezone depending on the country.

2. When setting up a link expiration, you might get confused about which time zone the link expiration is based. For this, there’s a helpful string that shows the time zone that is supported in your account.
