As far as I can see 1Password still has the same issue as I and others had reported in Date field format does not match system settings. Still on macOS 15.5 but now with 1Password 8.10.80. As far as I understand, same as alexejk​ reports.

For the Mac, the date format currently corresponds to the default date format associated with your currently selected preferred language rather than the region.

That’s not what’s happening for me. And even if it was, that’s still not as correct. Those Language & Region settings are good because they’re so granular.

Anyway, mine is set to "English (UK)", Date format to DD/MM/YYYY, 1Password itself is set to "Language: Use system defaults".

And 1Password date fields still display MM/DD/YYYY.

I did find a neat trick while experimenting with this, which is to set an alert to the same date, so the month is spelled out unambiguously.

    I'm sorry that you're still seeing the wrong date format. I just tested with the same settings and I'm seeing DD/MM/YYYY:

    Can you restart your Mac to see if that gets the date format in 1Password to align with English (UK) on your Mac? Let me know how that goes.
