My app’s URL: [https://decisive-decision-9243.glideapp.io/](https://decisive-decision-9243.glideapp.io/)

Hello,  
the date component, just for one field, doesn’t respect the regional format.  
I am using the dd / mm / yyyy format for dates in GS and displayed in tab data glideapps, but when I show the details in the date component uses the mm / dd / yyyy format ???  
This bug Only in one field of all the data in the app  
Is there a reason for that?

In my example the date in the sheet is January 4 but in the detail is showed as April 1 as the date component in “prima nota” “data movimento”

Second: for the same field in the moment I use the zap to append data to a google doc, the text appended is mm / dd / yyyy hh.hh. (long mode) even in the GS and in the tab is formatted in the short mode mm / dd / yyyy.

Can you help me? Thanks

> Hi, I’m in the UK so trying to get all date formats displaying as DD-MM-YY. If I look at my app in Glide app builder it displays correctly however when I look at it on my phone it is displaying as MM-DD-YY. Both my computer and phone are set to the correct time zone. The component being used is the date/time picker. Is this an error by me or a bug? [image]

Hi @Rosewebstudio My problem is near to that, but for me, even when I open in the builder the date is displayed uncorrectly. Strange thing is that the problem is just for one field in all the app
