Hi, this may seem picky, but it drives me crazy that if you look at a subscription the format of the date isn’t consistent. Anything in this year shows as ‘month day’ anything older shows as ‘day month year’. Why on earth switch mid page?

Hey @Emmathedog, I think I took that decision.

My main thinking was that the initial ones belong to this year, so the year wasn’t helpful?

To be honest just looks a bit ugly and offers no benefit in my mind. I would set everything to day month year app wide. Thanks
