It’s hard to select a date that is longer in the past for a date/time field in the iOS App.

When I tried to select a date in 2007 I came along this strange behaviour:

At some stage, the date field “breaks” and instead of adjusting in 1-day increments, it will go around 7.8 years in the past, it doesn’t matter if i scroll up or down.

I uploaded a video here: https://youtu.be/3ourqt5f2Sk (Sorry for the bad quality)

The steps in my example video are

08.07.94 … flick up/down
15.09.86 -2853 days …
24.11.78 -2852 days…
03.02.71 -2851 days…
14.04.63 ~2853 days …
22.06.55 ~2853 days …
28.08.47 -2855 days …
27.10.39 -2862 days …
27.12.31 -2861 days …
25.02.24 -2862 days …

I’m on an iPhone 7 with iOS 10.2.1 (14D27), Airtable 3.5.3 (68).

Can anyone reproduce this?
Whats the deal with the ~2850 days interval, is it some kind of overflow?

Thank you!
