Hi Team,

I am in New Zealand, but I am seeing dates in American format.

I hope all the rest of the international community agrees with me that the American date format is totally illogical.

In NZ, we use DD/MM/YY(YY) - least significant number to most significant left-to-right

I am seeing American dates. MM/DD/YY(YY) - no logical order whatsoever.

Actually in My Tasks in the navigation panel, I see MM/DD Would love to see DD/MM

Yes, I'm Australian and never understood why Americans thought that system was good. Although they (and Myanmar) are the only ones still using feet and inches so at least they are consistent.

There is a setting to tell Quire what your country is and the date format is supposed to come from that. At least that is what the Import process suggests

Yea, sorry, about that. The blog says 'country' https://quire.io/blog/p/How-to-migrate-to-Quire-Copy-and-paste.html but there is only a Language setting there. I assumed that was the one. I don't actually see any dates in MM format. All mine seem to be MMM

I couldn't find anywhere specifically to set country. Do you mean the language under account settings?
