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.

3 years agoI've been using 1Password for many years but I've just seen that each record's created and modified dates are shown as the system setting that was in effect when the record was created or modified.
Example: Today is 31 December 2022. I have system set to U.S. locale, with dates in M/D/Y format. Create a record and save. Change system settings to Ireland locale with dates in D/M/Y format. Edit record and save. The record now reports created on 12/31/2022 and modified on 31/12/2022.
You can have a record that shows 31/12/2022 as modified date and 1/20/2020 as created date. But if the day of the month is between 1 and 12, you have no idea what you're looking at. Someone who travels or moves will experience this. This makes it impossible to reliably interpret the created and modified dates, which can lead to real problems, especially with shared vaults.
