Hi

Is there a way to set the task due and alert time to use a 24 hour clock format instead of AM/PM?  
Nothing like getting woken up at 2:30 AM because you forget to set the AM/PM 🙂  
Thanks!  
MJ

Hi MJ, thanks for the feedback. Currently it follows the system format. You can change how it's set on default Settings app \> General \> Date & Time. For text snippets while adding, you can set Settings \> New Task \> Text Snippets. Thanks!
