Inconsistency between date in Dataverse and date displayed in PowerApp

Hi,

I have a date stored in a dataverse table. The column is formatted as a date. When I display this date in my powerapp, there is a one day difference between the two (e.g. date in Dataverse is 1/12/2023 and this date in the app is showing 1/11/2023). Any idea why this is happening?

Thanks and Happy New Year!

    THANK YOU!!!  This issue has been PLAGUING me!  For what it's worth, I only use "date only" data in my power queries, data tables, and power apps and I was still struggling with this issue until I changed all of the date settings in my tables to "time zone independent".

    Most likely cause is that the date in dataverse is defined as user local.  In a model driven app the local date will take the User's dataverse Personal setting for the Timezone and display it as per that.   However, other interfaces may display it differently due to how they determine the users time zone, sometimes this off the device it is running on or the browser that it is running in. (easiest/most consistent is to try an not use user local unless you have to)

    Hello, @karimabdelrazek, Make sure that your Date Column in the Dataverse table has been set to Date Only or Time zone independent in the Time zone adjustment:

    Most probably the formatting of the date in powerapps can be the issue, could you share screenshots for both, also include screenshots of the powerapps code that has been used.
