By default, messages in Zulip are displayed with a 12-hour timestamp. If you are used to seeing time displayed in a 24-hour format, you can change the Zulip timestamp format from a 12-hour format to a 24-hour format. You may want to do this to avoid confusion between A.M. and P.M. hours.

||
|
1. Click the cog (![cog](/static/images/help/cog.png)) in the upper right corner of the right sidebar.
|
||
