@Tray2 Thank you for trying to help me but could you help me with my code?

The first parameter of the date() function is the date format (e.g. 'Y-m-d'), but you're passing a formatted date string instead.
Here's one way to do it using strtotime():
$datetime = date_create($add->created_at);
$new_time = date('d/m/Y H:i:s', strtotime($datetime->format('c').' +2 hours'));
But since you're using a DateTime object, you can just do this:
$new_time = date_create($add->created_at)->modify('+2 hours')->format('d/m/Y H:i:s');
