Is there a way other than wifi and location services to set the clock on the ipod?

I don't wifi and don't want to be followed around, so Is there a way other than wifi and location services to set the clock on the ipod? One of my ipods is right on with the time and the other is 2 minutes fast.

Try connecting it to the iMac by a USB cable. It should sync time to the iPod.

Thanks MacInWin.
No luck.

What iPod models?

Identify your iPod model - Apple Support

Find out which iPod model you have by its model number and other details.

support.apple.com

Problematic one - s/w 15.7, 7 gen
right time - 12.5.5, 6th gen

Have a look here and then just follow the directions:

It no worky. I do long for those days of prior OS's when the pics were not there and it was very simple because the new crapola on there just means you have to wade through it and it serves no real purpose other than Apple wasting space so you presumably have to buy a bigger device.
Would be nice if you could just make the graphics "Go away".

Apple says this:

Change the date and time on iPod touch

The date and time, visible on the iPod touch Lock Screen, are set automatically based on your location. If they’re incorrect, you can adjust them.

No iPod Touch involved.

No iPod Touch involved.

The OP described it as, "Problematic one - s/w 15.7, 7 gen." There are only two models that are 7Gen, the Touch and the Nano. He indicated it was the "newer" one. iPod Nano was stopped in 2015, so it's more likely to be a Touch.

But I could be wrong, the OP didn't tell us.

Yeah I forgot only the iPod touch has wifi capabilities also.

They are both Touches.
