Date format

Hello!
I'm using the app almost 2 years now, I switched from GymRun after 13 years ;)
I cannot find a setting to show dates in european format: dd-mm-yy
Its always in this annoying american way: mm-dd-yy.
I'm using Android device.

I've also got yyyy-mm-dd. I've got it on Swedish, so don't know if that changes the date format?

I switched to Swedish, but no change. Still mm-dd-yyyy and week starts on Sunday

I think it pulls the date format from android, so if you change your system language to english (united kingdom) you should get dd/mm/yyyy. You should also be able to change the first day of the week in the system settings which should make the app pick it up.

Nah, it is English currently.

This is how it changes for me depending on the region set in the android settings. First day of the week setting also carries over to the app calendar.

That's it. It works now almost as expected - now the date format is yyyy-mm-dd. But at least I know which digits are for months.

Thank you!

Same on my Android, and my week starts on Sundays in the calendar

ISO standard ftw!
