Hello community

How do I change the date format of the date picker in XLS forms from the default of yyyy-mm-dd to let’s say dd/mm/yyyy

The appearance of the date widget is set by the Android system. You can make some adjustments, for example changing it to a spinner format or requesting only year and month. To get what you're asking, I think you could have a second question of type calculate and use the format-date(date,format) function.

+===========+=============+=======+====================================+
|   type    |    name     | label |            calculation             |
+===========+=============+=======+====================================+
| date      | my_date     | Date: |                                    |
+-----------+-------------+-------+------------------------------------+
| calculate | format_date |       | format-date(${my_date},'%d/%m/%Y') |
+-----------+-------------+-------+------------------------------------+
