43 Actions New Feature: Time zones.   
Update: We have had some very serious problems with our time zone implementation during Sunday through today, due in part to time server malfunctions as well as the tremendous traffic 43 Actions is experiencing right now. This error resulted in many user’s Agenda actions being put badly out of sync. 
 We very much apologize for this, and hope that everything should go smoother from now on. Please edit your actions with critical due dates once again to make sure they get the correct timestamps. If you are still having issues with due dates after this, be sure to send us a feedback notice describing the problem in detail. As the most highly requested new feature, you are now able to set your local time zone in the Settings and have the Agenda work as expected in your country. 
After you set your time zone—and depending on what time zone you were in before the change—you might see some actions ending up in the wrong position in the Agenda. (The default time zone was, and still is, “(GMT) London”.) 
We strongly recommend going through those actions which have critical due dates, and edit them once. This makes sure that the correct time zone information is saved. 
Today’s bonus features: We are now showing the descriptions for contexts and projects in their respective sections. You also get a ‘No Due Date’ button in the Agenda. This lets you view all unchecked actions which lack due dates. (As suggested by user gmadrid.)
