Yet another Parse/Format Date Time Question/Issue/Bug/Misunderstanding???

When we use 'Milliseconds Since Epoch UTC' as the Input type I assume all my output Times will be in my local time zone. This seems to be the case from my testing.

However the Tasker variable %dt_millis is not converted. As this is a output variable I would assume it should show 'Milliseconds Since Epoch' in my local time zone.

Am I misunderstanding how this should work?

This task flashes

``` 1744416000000 1744416000000 4-12-25 00.00

``` As you can see the output %dt_millis is the same as the input %utc_millis
