When setting up schedules and such for task.

 

I can’t figure out how to toogle use normal human understandable explicit time (24:00 the 24 hour clock). only US and UK uses this AM PM thing, the rest of the world is only confused with the this thing. After midday or after midnight and “Pefore” Midday og “Pefore” Midnigt. yes i know it some obscure latin “ante” and “post” meridien wording that is different. but for the rest of us that don’t use this in our day to day. it is just a source of confusion.

But please have a way to use the explicit time (24:00) hour. and not the implicit time this is just confusion and a bad experience.

Additionally i see here

There is this nonintuititve 15 months in 2025 way of looking at dates that only americans use. Can we also be able to have propper dateing? with DD/MM/YYYY? or be able to toggle this? 

This causes a lot of confusion and is for the first 12months of the year quite errorprone for the rest of the world.

Hi ​@Stig Harald Gustavsen ! Thank you for your feedback. 

 

Could you click the small wheel next to the start- and end time? How we display time should vary depending on where you’re located. By default we try to use the browser settings on your device to recognize where you are and what format that should be used. As you can see in my screenshots below, everything is presented correctly to be (Oslo). Is your browser set to a different location/time zone?

 

Br,

Kristoffer

Hi


I have it set to Oslo, but still uses the confusing latin time format.

Could you check your “machine system language”?
