Has the date format changed?

Has the date format changed?? All of a sudden I have noticed that the date format is month day year (April 16, 2025) when I am sure it was always day month year (16 April 2025) which is my preference. I can’t see where to change the preference?

It was changed recently, although most fields previously displayed it as DD/MM/YYYY

Is there a place where it caught your attention specifically?

Yes -everywhere😂

Patterns, fabrics, projects, notions, basically everywhere that has a date field are all showing as month day, year (MMMM DD, YYYY) April 16, 2025. This is on both PC and IPad, everywhere I looked.

It jumped out at me because I am used to DD/MM/YYYY format on almost everything I do outside so SH.

Do we have an option to change it to DD /MM/YYYY for example 16 April 2025?

What I meant was that the previous way most date fields showed was something like 16/04/24.

I will add the option to change the format to the roadmap and put in the customisation settings.

Hi Doug, I noticed the date format has changed since the update. In projects it is still as before - eg, 17 April 2025 (my preferred option) but in patterns and fabrics it’s showing as April 17, 2025.

It shows April 17, 2025 when you open the actual project - but on the overview screen where you can see all your projects it shows 17 April 2025.

I’m with you on the preferred option of day month year - it is the way I was taught as a junior typist many many years ago. Any other way messes with my brain.
