"Today" date is ok in desktop but wrong when publishing to app

I have a report with a card showing current date (Feb 2022) in Power Bi desktop. When I refresh, publish and update the app it shows the wrong date (Jan 2022). Why is that?

 

On Power BI Desktop

The service uses UTC time and you must have refreshed when UTC was a different day (and month). You can add/subtract hours in your expression as needed to address the time difference.
