Observe regional settings for date format on Charge 6

Status: Reviewed By Moderator Submitted by on ‎11-18-2023 15:43

The Charge 6 charging screen doesn't observe regional settings - it displays the date in US date format - mm/dd rather than observing regional settings (eg. dd/mm or dd.mm)

Moderator edit: Clarified subject and updated label
This is needed because:
The date display is confusing or misleading for non-US users.
I'd use this: Daily

They did the same with the Charge 5.

They ignored us with the Charge 5.

Guess what will happen with the Charge 6.

@Widdershins I am not surprised.  I had a Charge 4, which didn't have this bug, because it didn't display the date.

I don't understand how this is still an issue - it's rather confusing and most other Google products do allow for correct regional date settings (using a Charge 6, was on Charge 5)
