Hello folks,
Our developers have released improvements to how 1Password handles date formatting in the latest version of the 1Password desktop app (8.10.80). You can read more here: Improved date formatting in the 1Password desktop app
If you still see an issue with version 8.10.80 (or later) then please post a screenshot of what you see in the 1Password app and your current operating system region/date settings in the new thread. I'll close this old thread in order to keep the conversation in one place.

Americans don't seem to realise just how disconcerting and off-putting their format is to the rest of the world - Users shouldn't have to guess whether 06/07/2022 - is June or July.
A quick fix would be to just switch the display format to the iso system yyyy-mm-dd - that way no-one gets confused and there is no need to check location settings.
More generally though, for a company trading internationally, respecting local settings should be part of core functionality coding standards: "Ensure that Local System Settings for date/time/language etc. are respected throughout the application"
