Almost every datetime in Studio can only be set and displayed in UTC.
This is very unnatural and painful for the course team.
Something simple like setting a datetime in a Google Meet meeting would be better.
When setting a datetime, the default timezone can be the user’s preferred timezone that they set in LMS or browser timezone if they haven’t set it, they can change it if they want to.
When displaying a datetime, use users’ preferred timezone or browser timezone if users haven’t set it.

Have you find the solution my brother?
It was possible in very old versions, but by default, in recent versions it is not possible.
Hi @Anh_Vu_Nguy_n ,
Setting and viewing dates in UTC in Studio can be a bit unintuitive for some course teams. However, the platform currently doesn’t allow customization of time zones based on user preferences or automatic adjustments to the browser’s time zone.
The functionality you’re suggesting, such as defaulting to the user’s preferred timezone from the LMS or browser, is not available in the current version of Open edX. Setting dates and times in UTC ensures consistency across all users, regardless of their geographic location.
While this feature isn’t possible in Studio by default, we encourage you to share your suggestion in the Open edX community discussions for consideration as a future improvement.
