Hello Huffman,

Ideally this should give the time irrespective to device time setting. However you can disable the replay attack from AppHQ Management console for your app, it will resolve your issue. To disable the replay attack, kindly follow just simple steps:

• Login to your AppHQ Management Console
• Click on View App under App Manager section
• Disable the replay attack & run the method again

We have logged this issue and will give  a fix before this month end.

Let us know if it helps.

 

Thanks,
