As if Daylight Savings Time wasn't already confusing enough, it turns out that the latest version of Apple iOS operating system doesn't eliminate an existing bug that further confuses the matter.
Daylight Savings Time bugs have been around in iOS for years now. But somehow this one didn't get fixed despite Apple's complete revamp of the mobile operating system with iOS 7 and user complaints about the issue last year.

Right now if you open the Calendar app on your iPhone or iPad running the latest version of iOS, you'll notice that the red time indication bar displays the correct time, but is actually positioned an hour earlier than it should be.

Thankfully, the bug isn't incredibly damaging (you can still see the correct time numerically), but during the Daylight Savings Time switch day, any little bit of wrong information just adds to the temporal anxiety.
Years have passed and Apple's Daylight Savings Time bugs have persisted, so the fact that this one still shows up in the company's shiny new version of iOS indicates that someone may be deliberately asleep at the wheel on this one.
