Now() with wrong format

Hi there, I've a simple question. In my powerapp application I put the function Now() in order to get the time and date value of a specific operation. My device is in italian so I have this type of format for dates and time: dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm (24h). My problem is that until yesterday the function Now() gave back the right format, but now it is changed to mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm (12h). The strangest thing is that I have the same function on another screen of the same app and it gives back the right format. How could this be possible? And how I restore the right date and time format?

    Re: Now() with wrong format

    That sounds strange!

     

    However, to format the date you can use this formula:

     

    Text(Now(), "dd/mm/yyyy hh:mm")

     

    That will force the format to you preference.
