Will do - thanks, Vicki! I am avoiding TT with my device (not sure if changing the date/time is even possible, let alone if it might affect other aspects of the device.  Doing it on a Windows PC is one thing, but ion my phone I have no idea how to go about it. I originally had the same worries. I do it on my iPad, but it's synced in with my iPhone and MacBook Pro laptop. So I really worried about it!

I think there are two things that are important: (1) close all other apps running in the background and do not open them while TTing, and (2) make sure you go back to real time when you're done TTing.

I TT every day now, going back over a month sometimes, and I'm not having any problems with my iPad, iPhone, or MacBook Pro – not even with the automatic syncing using wifi between them.

The only concern I might have with TTing on a phone would be the timestamp of any phone calls or texts that come in. Would they show the real time or the phone's TT time? Others who TT on their phones can answer that, as well as let you know if there's anything else to worry about. Personally, I usually play late at night so even if I used my phone to TT, phone calls wouldn't be a problem. You can also turn on the "Do Not Disturb" option while TTing which would resolve that problem. Just turn it back off when you're done.
