Can you tell me if an iphone will automatically put clock forward on Saturday 28 March?
 
All of our phones automatically updated the time for DST in the US, so I'm assuming it will elsewhere in the world.
 
Yeah - it automatically went back in October so I assume it will do the same on Saturday night (there's no message though; it just happens).
 
If you phone time is set to automatic in the settings area, then the DST changes are dependent on your carrier. As far as I can tell, the iphone has no DST checkbox. It just requests the current time from the carrier and displays whatever it gets.

On a recent trip to NYC from San Jose with a stop in Denver, every time I turned on my phone when the plane landed, the local time was automatically displayed without issue.
