 * when I use the date selector I get dates formatted like this
 * 2016-07-30
 * but I would prefer to have them formatted differently. Is there a way to change
   this? Thanks!

 * Hmmm…I tried changing date format as you suggested but when I use the date selector
   on the application it still enters it as “2016-08-31”.
