Description
The Snooze label date format leads to ambiguous display in at least two cases:
- Hour is displayed without minutes so it really looks like it is a year
- Year is not displayed even if snoozing beyond year’s end
To Reproduce…
Steps to reproduce the 1st failing use case:
- Snooze an email
- Type
13 dec at 22hor any plain hours (without minutes, such as 1:00, 2:00, etc) - Mail will be visibly snoozed to the following date:
Dec, 13 22, which seems like it is 2022/12/13 date
Steps to reproduce the 2nd failing use case:
- Snooze an email
- Type
13 dec 2022 - Mail will be visibly snoozed to the following date:
Dec, 13 12, which seems like it is 2012/12/13 date
Note: when not specifying any hour, it sets the snooze time at 12 o’clock, like above… so the impact is significant because it is the default behaviour
Expected Behavior
- Do not display hours/minutes if they were not specified
- Always display hours AND minutes to lift any ambiguity
- Make it smart to display the year as well, if snoozed beyond this year’s end
The expected label for above ambiguous use cases would be:
Dec, 13 22:00Dec, 13 2022
