The iPhone world clock does not show Cairns QLD Australia

The world clock does not show Cairns QLD Australia. It is a very well known holiday place from many countries and the time difference in Australia is different in many places

Hello Jumpsy93!


It seems like the closest place on the World Clock to Cairns QLD, Australia, is Brisbane, Australia:



The other places in Australia that are available in the World Clock are as follows:


Adelaide, Australia

Brisbane, Australia

Broken Hill, Australia

Canberra, Australia

Currie, Australia

Darwin, Australia

Eucla, Australia

Hobart, Australia

Lindeman Island, Australia

Lord Howe Island, Australia

Melbourne, Australia

Perth, Australia

Sydney, Australia


I hope this is helpful. Good Luck!

And that may be precisely the issue. The aberrant way AUS handles time zones can be hard to program into simple code that works in the rest of the world.


Apple will not see your concern here; we are your fellow end users. If you think Apple can help, you can use a feedback link, finding the device you are using in this list:


Product Feedback - Apple


However, I see this as a legislative issue.
