HI,

I'm new to echo and trying to understand it's quirks.

I work from home for a global company, I'm based in the USA on the east cost.

What is the syntax to add a calendar for example 4pm in Great Britain and have it show up on the calendar in my local time zone.

Thanks in advance

Harry

As far as I can tell Alexa considers all times to be expressed in terms of the timezone for your device (based on the location you've specified for it in the Alexa app configuration), and there's no way to override that and specify other timezones in spoken commands.  You can edit the calendar entry after it's been added via your calendar's mobile app/web interface, but that's about the only solution I know of.
