Alphabet and message length

Tetum and Portuguese uses letters outside GSM-7, such as á, â, ã, ç, ê, í, ó, ô, õ and ú. Any one of them sends the whole text as Unicode, 70 characters per segment and 67 per part. Written without those marks the same text keeps 160 characters per segment, which often cuts a long message to less than half the segments.

Local time in Timor-Leste

Timor-Leste keeps UTC+9 all year, with no clock change. A 09:00 start in Dili is 00:00 UTC; the console shows both times when you schedule.
