Polaris Office cannot set Date Format to UK

how can we change the input & displaying of dates in Polaris Office to UK format? The devices are set in Settings/System/Date and Time/Select date format to UK style (dd/mm/yyyy). The default within Polaris seems to be yyyy/mm/dd. Other android users wrongly think this is UK format . You can change the date format of cells to be any of the following: - yyyy/mm/dd (default) - mm/dd/yyyy (US format) - mm/dd - dd-month-yy - dd-month - month-yy - month-yy - month dd, yyyy - dd month yyyy (almost UK format) Ideally we need the correct UK date format dd/mm/yy or dd/mm/yyyy as this is already in our source files. We cannot change this (only the format of the cells) as users will be working on files generated from MySQL in MS Access and outputted to .xlsx This seems an oversight on Polaris part, but I don't see much 'chatter' about it around the web, so should we notify Polaris of this?
