Hi, so if you complete a date in the date picker how do you clear the ‘date’ ie take it back to a blank state without the need to go into the google sheet and delete the data.

Click on the cross, on the right after the date, when in the builder. Else, on my android device, I have validate / cancel and “effacer” in french, aka “remove”

Thanks, I wanted outside of builder so in the front end app so the user can clear the field, sorry should have been clearer in my original post. Appreciate your feedback though.

I can’t speak for IOS, but on my Android phone I have a Clear button on the Date and DateTime pickers when I tap on the date field to edit it.
