Date format is incorrect in 1Password for Mac

Hi, greetings from the UK.

I noticed that the date / time format for created / modified uses North American format (ie. back to front for us Brits).
Could this be changed to use the locale of the user please?

Many thanks.

1Password Version: 8.7.1
Extension Version: 2.3.5
OS Version: macOS 12.4
Browser:_ Firefox 101.0

    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. 

    -Dave

    Thanks for confirming that. Right now, it seems that if the Region is set to United Kingdom, dates will show as dd/mm/yyyy with 24-hour time, but for any other region, it'll use mm/dd/yyyy and 12-hour time.

    Our development team are investigating why this is and are looking to address it as soon as they can.

    Here is a screenshot of all the settings in Language & Region.

    Can I ask what Region your Mac is currently set to in System Settings > Language & Region?

    +1 from me - I just got bitten by this in 1Password version 8.9.13 on macOS 13.1.
    When editing a secure note, the field for entering a date is in DDMMYYYY format, but when I finish editing, the date is displayed as MMDDYYYY. The "created" and "modified" dates are also in MMDDYYYY format. Looking forward to this being fixed.

    Thanks for testing that out and sharing your results, @BusterBill, much appreciated!

    Switching region to Europe > United Kingdom displays 1P dates and times as I would like to see them.

    Thank you both, I can confirm we've received them and you'll hear back as soon as possible if you haven't already. 🙂

    For other folks in this thread still seeing mixed results, try switching your region to Europe > United Kingdom and let me know if that helps. We're continuing to investigate this region/date format behaviour internally so thanks for sharing your results and your ongoing patience!

    @1Passerby,

    Thanks for trying those steps, sorry to hear the issue persists. If you're open to continuing the search, I'd like to ask you to create a diagnostics report from your Mac:

    You can attach it to an email addressed to support+forum@1password.com that includes a link to this thread and your username. You'll receive an automated reply for that with a Support ID number which you can post here. That way I can link our conversations and we can take a look under the hood!

    @gothick,

    Thanks so much for the confirmation! I'm glad to hear things are displaying well on your end. 🎉
