In some screens, the date format used by default does not leave enough space to actually read the year, which is often the most important part to me. Photo of example attached.
In this case, perhaps the data format could be simplified to either DD-MM-YYYY or YYYY-MM-DD, or at least the day of the week could be dropped so there is less text that needs to go into the box. That would make it a lot easier to see dates in screens where there is little space for them.
