Consistent date format and preferrably in international format

The Windows desktop app and browser extensions show date formats in the confusing American format (MM/DD/YYYY) while the iOS app has dates in the international format (YYYY-MM-DD) which is what the standard should be across all platforms to avoid confusion.

    See the below screenshots showing the difference between the Windows date format and the 1P desktop app format:

    Hi @ticky! Thanks for bringing this up.

    If your device locale is set to a region where MM/DD/YYYY would be the default, that might be the reason why this is happening. Does that check out?

    Yeah, nah. I have my Windows date set as YYYY-MM-DD but 1Password doesn't recognize those.

    Driver's license for is also using localized date format.

    It's using dd/MM/YYYY in my case. If you are on windows 10 search for Region in the settings, see if you have the right country and
    region set up.

    For which kind of item? I have an identity item with a date and its localized (DD/MM/YYYY) in both 1Pass 8 and the browser extension.
