HI Sharksguts,

 

AFAIK, these datetime format is based on device setting , maybe you can try to modify language and region settings on your android device and try again.

    Both on android phone and windows 7 PC browser I believe I have set the language and region correctly but still shows the date in the wrong format. I have even tried IE as well as firefox and chrome.

      Have found part of the solution from this https://superfarb.com/power-bi-customising-date-format/

       

      Change the language to defualt (browser language) and the date format displays correctly in all browsers as long as you have set the browser language correctly.

       

      So the browser now shows the format correctly however Teams and Android App still don't, Is there a place the language is set for these that I am missing?
