Incorrect date format for UK users on Android

I'm on galaxy 24U. Latest release on play store. UK user. 

The date field and the associated alert field are formatted mm/dd/yyyy

That doesn't follow the Android system date setting for my locality and forces a well known confusion upon all non-american users. 

You have recognised this as a problem from a user report in the forum and fixed it (June announcement) within the Mac desktop app. It appears to me that you need to think more widely across your ecosystem and when a problem like this is noticed check all your applications for the same problem, acknowledge that in the bug/request and fix it everywhere.

  • Hello 1PNH​! 👋

    I'm sorry that you're seeing incorrectly formatted dates in 1Password on your Android device. So that I can confirm whether you're running into a known issue can you post the following: 

    1. A screenshot showing your current locale settings in Android.
    2. A screenshot of a date that you see in 1Password. 


    This will allow me to reproduce the issue and investigate further. 

    And while I'm here, in another post about dates a user was surprised that the alert system doesn't do anything outside the app, it only appears in watchtower. That's not really an alert in any normal sense of what a user would expect. So I don't use the alert feature and use calendar/tasks since those create 'normal' alerts.

    Thank you for the feedback, I've shared this with the product team.
