I have an app that has been live with no changes for a few weeks and a date picker just randomly started showing 2024 as the year returned by the Now() function. any ideas? here is the code for that date picker:

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

All my other date pickers are still working fine. They all use Now() and the same formatting with slightly diff logic. Here is one of those:

DefaultDate: If(IsBlank(currSession.End),Now(),currSession.End)

My users are asking why I changed this and im trying to figure the same thing out 😛 Thank you in advance!

Hi @mmollet,

Depending on your language settings the DatePicker might expect a mm/dd/yyyy format as the default date instead of dd/mm/yyyy. Try to swap the DefaultDate to Today() and change the Format property to "dd/mm/yyyy" to achieve your desired date formatting.

I hope this helps! 😊

I didn't even realize that was swapped 😛 I think I changed that to test something and must have not changed it back. Thank you!
