Military time as a time format

20 votes

I would like to be able to enter 17:00 in the time box instead of 5 PM.
I would not make it mandatory but as a possible setting to be changed based on preferences.

This would be a huge time saver when entering times on mobile. I tested ~5 seconds (current method) vs ~1 second (proposed) for entering 1:30pm (1330):
Proposed method: tap on a time, hit number lock on the keyboard, and enter 1330
Current method: 1) press & hold 1 (or number lock, then 1), 2) press and hold symbol ":", 3) press & hold 3, 4) press & hold 0., 5) type pm

24h time and ISO dates (YYYY-MM-DD) would be amazing to have.
