Who changes their clocks?
Most of the US uses daylight saving time. Hawaii and most of Arizona don’t. Canada changes on the same days, except most of Saskatchewan, which stays on standard time.
Your phone and computer change automatically. Clocks on ovens, cars and older devices usually need changing by hand.
