Be able to set date format

Have a way to be able to set the date format that GoToMeeting uses when booking a meeting. GoToMeeting only uses mm/dd/yyyy however here in the UK we use dd/mm/yyyy. This has resulted in a meeting being scheduled for the wrong day. Yes the calendar does work but it doesn't stop people from instinctively typing in the date.

  • Totally understand the frustration  I’m also based in the UK, and the mm/dd/yyyy format has caused issues more than once. It’s easy to make a mistake when typing the date manually, especially if you’re used to the UK format.

    While the calendar picker helps, it doesn’t fully prevent these errors. It would definitely be useful if GoToMeeting allowed users to set their preferred date format in the settings. We’ve had to be extra careful with how we send and double-check meeting invites because of this.
