Yep. Fortunately, a lot of apps can get by with just local civil time and an OS-set timezone. It’s much less common that they need to worry about leap seconds, etc. And many also don’t care about millisecond granularity, etc. If your app does care about all that, however, things become a mess quite quickly.
