languages/localized versions: date and time in proper formats!
I don’t know what the percentage of non-English users is for your platform, so I don’t how high localization (language and date/time information) is on your priorities list ist.
Is there some sort of timeline as to when dates and times will be displayed in proper format for each language and
when the placeholder system is fixed, so the translation issues can be fixed?
The whole app is about communication, after all, and language with dates and times is vital to that, so this is actually a major
argument why non-English users might not use this app, because the player's parents don't always speak English. Even for sb who learned English at school expects the dates and times to be displayed according the the language's standard otherwise this is a confusing mix of languages.
I really like how your app is reduced down to what is really necessary and the interace is also the best I’ve seen!
So a proper translation would be very very nice!

I agree. A lot people in Germany would be happier with 24h format too.

Turns out I voted for this before! Must really want it, huh? There are several instances of this request each with a number of votes. Perhaps they should be merged and the votes totaled?

I'm guessing the majority of users are in Australia and USA, otherwise this would be getting serious votes.
I'm using Team Stuff in Ireland where people can get by with the AM PM thing, although 24h would be better. The date format is a MAJOR pain.
It doesn't seem this should be a massive deal to code either, overriding the locale when running the date time functions is standard stuff.
Please at least examine how tough it is to do; you may be surprised ...
Thanks,
Gareth.
