European/International style date format (DD/MM and YYYY/MM/DD)

Claire Hodgson

The English way to write dates is DD/MM - would be great to have this as an option for dating the unit timeline as it's quite confusing.
Thanks

Ability to change the date format from MM/DD/YY to DD/MM/YY to YY/MM/DD

I'm in Australia and the date format keeps throwing me off since we go by DD/MM/YY. Other countries also go by YY/MM/DD.

Hi Claire!
Thanks so much for this suggestion!  I know we haven't done much on the app in terms of internationalization, but I LOVE the idea as we do have many international users that don't use the same date format.
Thanks!

Also add date translation please. I create my plan, download it but can't change the word "April". Set up some crowdsourced translation platform and we can help you with translation ;)

I've been working mostly in the Unit planning area. It's the Outline section of that and setting the days off which threw me off. The printed pages have the longer format for the date so it's not so bad.

Just to make things a little more complex... Would it be possible to change date format by class? I'm a Japanese teacher as well and it'd be a neat feature if I could change those classes to be in the YY/MM/DD format. However this isn't as important as my original suggestion.
