Changed column name for date selection option, now user cannot add date from app

Hey there.

 

I had to change the name of a column in a SharePoint list. I updated the app to reflect this change, but now users are unable to add/modify the date from the app. You can select the date, but the date is not saved at all. It works fine in the SharePoint list. PowerApps does not flag any issues. All other date options working correctly. 

 

What should I do? I've looked for a solution everywhere. Nothing helps.

    Huh. Now they're suddenly working again even though I didn't touch anything. That was odd. Uh, solution accepted?

    I did. Still doesn't work. In fact, all of the date fields are now no longer working for some reason. Changing a date in the Edit form cannot be saved.

    Have you tried removing the column from the form in Power Apps and refreshing the data source and then adding the field back to the form?
