Change the date and time format

Display time in 24-hour format

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.

You can easily change the date and time format your messages are displayed in by following a few steps.

  1. Click the cog (cog) in the upper right corner of the right sidebar.

  2. Select Settings from the dropdown menu that appears.
