US date formatting causing due date issue

Question

When setting due dates for cards anything that is in early August is causing issues. For example 2 August is showing as 2/8/24 and is immediately setting the due date as 8 February until I manually change it.

I am based in the UK, but cannot see anywhere I can force the system to know which date format to use.

@Oliver Marcus Interesting.  I wouldn't expect timezone to impact that.  The parsing and formatting logic uses locale info coming from that language setting (in your case en-GB).  I'm having trouble recreating what you described.  When I set my language to English (UK) it's correctly formatting and parsing dates in dd/MM/yyyy style.  If you have a list of specific steps to recreate it, or a screencap of what you're seeing that could be helpful.

It is set as English (UK).

I didn't have a timezone set, so have set that as London which I don't know if it will help.
