When you use a date picker for entering date in date field its always a Sunday as a week start day. Would be great to have ability to change it. Thanks!

Up! We’ve made several mistakes in our form by week starting on Sunday, could you please fix this based on browser local settings?

I confirm that this is a standard feature to let user choose 1st day of week if targetting European clients


Yes that is very important


Any progress here? Just the browser locale is not enough - some of us use a specific locale for the time zone we’re in, or the language, or the currency… we do need however to change some settings from the default. I don’t want to switch the browser locale from the US to somewhere in Europe just for this, obviously it would break other things.


Still waiting for the ability to set Monday as the first day of the week. Any progress?


I’am also waiting for this feature! 🙂


Another one here waiting for this feature to arrive!


Yes, same for our organization, could really benefit from this!


@Katherine_Duh Can we ask some attention to this topic?


As a user who prefers to start my calendars on Monday

As a user who lives in the US

As a user who does not want to change his browser settings for a single feature to work in Airtable


I want to be able to set the start day of a calendar using a setting in Airtable.


I have my browser set to allow airtable access to my location (Poland, Europe) and yet I still get Sunday as the first day of the week? Am I doing something wrong?


+1 for this feature! I need to set Monday as default


please i need that as well in AUS


Not just on date picker, there should be a section on the database or on the date formulas to define what type of week we want. I work with different starts of week. One company has defined start of week as Thursday another as Monday and yet another as Sunday.


Is this something you have in mind? When do you guys believe this is going to be implemented. Excel has this one for ages, so, I am so used to it, that by now I thought it was a given.


Thanks


I also want to change the calendar view start date to Monday, and I am in the US. I need the Sat & Sunday weekend displayed together!


I can think of so many use cases for the ability to define this in our Airtable settings, without workarounds to change our computer settings…


Also waiting on this feature.


Worst thing for me sitting in Europe:


If you use the weeknum() function to generate week numbers from dates and then you group by those week numbers, it will include sundays in the, at least from a european perspective, wrong week.


Every calendar app wanting to be international offers this option. It’s a matter of global thinking.

Agreed. Having the ability to change this would be extremely helpful.


+1

Overall the week start day should be configurable in the app, and not through some “auto-detected” locale deep within the OS settings.


Two years later and this is still not working? Pity


Keeping the Discussion alive, we need the feature


Yeah, it’s really disappointing that Airtable is so unusable outside of the USA, and it doesn’t seem like the Airtable team is too bothered by this. They seem to have no concept that 80% of the world starts their weeks on a different day than Sunday, and that 80% of the world doesn’t format currency or phone numbers like the USA.


You can’t change the date picker, you can’t change the week number function, and you can’t change calendar views. I suppose that you could PARTIALLY solve the calendar views situation by creating a calendar subscription link and then subscribing to it in an external calendar app (such as Outlook or BusyCal), but that still doesn’t fix the date picker or the week number formulas.


+1


It’s a super important feature for us now


+1 to choose Monday as the beginning of the week.
